Birmingham City have agreed a fee with Glasgow Rangers for Barry Ferguson and the midfielder will travel to the West Midlands to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical.
Once a move is finalised it will see the 31-year-old reunite with Blues boss Alex McLeish, under whom he has played for both club and country.
Ferguson, who has represented Scotland 45 times at full international level, has had two spells with the Ibrox club.
Having graduated the Rangers youth set-up in 1994 Ferguson initially went on to play no less than 459 games, scoring 64 goals, before McLeish, then the Rangers manager, allowed him to leave for Blackburn Rovers for a fee of £7.5 million in August 2003.
Ferguson's time at Ewood Park gave him valuable Premier League experience that will stand him in good stead as he embarks on the latest chapter of his career in the top flight of the English game. During that period in Lancashire he featured in 38 matches, grabbing four goals.
Rangers came a calling again in January 2005 and with McLeish still at the Ibrox helm it was he who re-signed him for the Old Firm club.
Ferguson wasted no time in re-establishing himself as a fans' favourite and went on to rack up another 190 appearances and to score 25 more goals.
