Apart from Lewis, Barry raised the possibility of Torino's Nathan Patterson and Napoli's Billy Gilmour also returning to the club where they spent parts of their careers.
Writing in the Daily Record on 2 October, the Govan side's former interim manager said, "I enjoyed listening to [Lewis] because I think, for a young man, he spoke with maturity and honesty," Barry wrote in the Daily Record
"Yes, one day I would love to see it happen. And who knows? Maybe all three of these boys could end up back at Ibrox together at some point in the future.

Rangers expect to lose Nicolas Raskin sooner rather than later and they will certainly need to find a quality replacement for him.
Lewis would fit the bill perfectly, with the Scottish ace bringing immense quality and leadership.
At right-back, Dujon Sterling, Kosta Nedeljkovic and Ross McCrorie are at McInnes disposal for now.
Patterson, 24, still has plenty of years left and could potentially make a return to Ibrox if the opportunity arises.
Gilmour, 25, has had a mixed spell at Napoli due to fitness issues and if the Govan side ever need a player who can maintain possession and progress the ball forward, he would be the perfect signing.
