The former Rangers, Dundee and Dundee United player Ian Redford has been found dead in woodland near Irvine in Ayrshire, BBC Scotland understands.

Police Scotland confirmed that a body was found near Long Drive just after 11:00 on Friday.

Officers said there did not appear to be any suspicious circumstances.

Mr Redford, who was 53, began his career with Dundee before joining Rangers in February 1980 for a then Scottish record fee of £210,000.

After six seasons with Rangers, which included four domestic cup trophies, Mr Redford moved to Dundee United, where he collected runners-up medals in the Uefa Cup and Scottish Cup in the space of a few days in 1987.

He also played for Ipswich Town from 1988 to 1991.
