Key player in previous takeover bid

PAUL Murray is a former Deutsche Bank high-flyer who became a non-executive director at the Ibrox club in 2007.

The chartered accountant, who has an undisclosed personal fortune, advised Rangers on business development and also served on the club's youth development board.

He was a key player in piecing together a bid for the club in 2009 which was thwarted by Lloyds Bank, the club's biggest debtor, amid fears Mr Murray – along with fellow directors Dave King and Douglas Park – were trying to get the club at a knockdown price.
