Ian Petrie Redford (born 5 April 1960 in Perth) is a Scottish former footballer who played in midfield.

Career

Redford began his career with Dundee before joining Rangers in February 1980 for a Scottish record fee of £210,000. After six seasons with Rangers, which included four domestic cup trophies, 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. Redford moved on after three years to Ipswich Town, before returning to Scotland with St Johnstone. He was appointed player-manager of Brechin City in 1993 but was sacked a year later. He signed for Raith Rovers as a player in 1994 and collected a final League Cup winners' medal with the Kirkcaldy side before retiring.

Although Redford appeared in Scotland squads, he never added to his youth and under-21 caps. He retired from the game and now runs fishing holidays in Perthshire.
