Birmingham City manager Alex McLeish has confirmed he has made an enquiry about Rangers midfielder Barry Ferguson.
The former Ibrox boss had Ferguson as his skipper during his time in Govan and remains an admirer. But the Birmingham boss, who will look to add to his squad for next season's foray in to the Barclays Premier League, was keen to stress that nothing had been decided yet.
"I haven't made a move for Barry but I have enquired about him," McLeish told the Daily Record. "He is one of a number of players I'm interested in."
He added: "I'm on holiday right now but I'm still working away at some things."
Ferguson, 31, was linked with West Brom before Tony Mowbray left to join Celtic.

mowbray wanted to sign barry ferguson for WBA so much for the free flowing football that mogga talks about with sqaure pass fergie maybe he might sign bazza for the hoops i wonder how the tims would feel about that/ENGLISH SAM
u celtic fans talk @#$%, u all make me laugh... the gers just won the League, and are in the Champions League next season with the 10million so we dnt need sell any big players and what player dnt want to play in the Champions League why would they want to leave? ... yes we will be getting sum player out Hendami, Bazza, Smith, adam, Velička and maybe McCulloch, Beasley.. rangers squad is to big..
celtic fans need think what squad they have..
GAUN GETTAY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Angela, Lucy... both of you exemplify why women should not be allowed to discuss manly things, such as footie! Stick to small talk, and fluffy bunny-rabbits, girls!!
Haha!!.. Lucid Lucy, you been partaking of the Class A's?? Ferguson set WHAT standards? How to flick the vicky, and get pished on Scotland duty?? How impressive.. NOT!!
woll do brum good, but would do a job at stoke city as well.
A Know Stuart... Brilliant isn't it hehehe Hell mend them!
Frankie...the gers are in big trouble....season starts Aug 15th....players already gone are (1)Hendami, (2)Dailly players to be sold b 4 then are (3)Bazza, (4)McCulloch, (5)Novo, (6)McGregor, (7)(Poss Davis or Boogie) (8)Smith...players injured or banned for the start of the season are (9)Edu, (10)Thomson,(11) Broadfoot and (12)Lafferty...Will they be able to field a team?????
Ferguson is finished anyway. The huns played less badly without him anyway. Over rated, overpaid and over the hill. All he has ever been good for is a square ball and holding the huns midfield together. Other than that, he's a Haddie.
If Birmingham do go for him he'll either sit on the bench rotting or will be instrumental in their going back down. He cant handle EPL footbal, he proved that at Blackburn where he was a dismal failure.
Pt5..Edu / Thomson Out till late Sept, Broadfoot even longer...Adam will be sold....which leaves Davis and Furman...I think Fergie will stay till Jan and then get a Bosman
davis, edu, thomson, edu, dean furman, charlie adam even kirk broadfoot could do better for us in midfield, dissapointiing but fergie is done
And who will be left out of the team in his place Lucy
Bawwy wants to stay - But he NEEDS to be sold. Murray has a turtle head sticking oot the noo 'cos the banks are needing back their dosh.
Barry needs to stay he sets the standard and gives his all for the club ...
Statement on behalf of Birmingham Football Club: "Alex McLeish wishes to say sorry to all the fans for the mix up re Barry Ferguson....Mr McLeish said that he was thinking of buying an Ibrox brick not Mr Ferguson"
