Valencia assistant manager Ian Cathro exits Spanish club

Valencia assistant manager Ian Cathro leaves the club, fuelling speculation that he could be on his way to Rangers.

Rangers-linked Ian Cathro has left his role as assistant manager of Spanish club Valencia.

The 28-year-old, who helped guide Los Che to fourth place in La Liga last season, will now return to his Scottish homeland.

Despite the strong rumoured interest from Rangers, Cathro is reportedly not interested in returning to coaching anytime soon.

"I would like to thank Nuno Espirito Santo for the opportunity to work with him in the top leagues in Portugal and Spain," the former Rio Ave assistant is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"It has been a unique and hugely rewarding experience for an ambitious Scottish coach. I wish Valencia the success they deserve.

"I had an amazing time with a great club in a fantastic city. This was a very difficult decision to take and was agreed some time ago."

Cathro has also previously spent time working for the Scottish Football Association's regional coaching set-up.
