According to the Daily Record, Rangers are pressing to finalize a deal for Liam Kelly while reaffirming their intention to pursue Aberdeen’s Connor Barron.
The outlet stated on page 36 of its print version on June 20 that the Gers had reached an agreement with Barron, 21, and that they intend to register him under a free agent deal.
The Dons have the right to bring the Light Blues before a tribunal for a possible £500,000 fee if the teams are unable to come to an agreement.
Additionally, Rangers are reportedly “pushing” to complete a deal to recruit Motherwell’s Kelly, a member of the Scotland squad, this summer.
Rangers closer to completing Connor Barron deal
To replace those who have left, Philippe Clement will need to bring in a large number of new players this summer.
Early on in his rebuilding effort, he signed permanent deals with Clinton Nsiala and Jefte.
Barron might end up being a fantastic addition to the Gers team as they prepare to lose Ryan Jack and other players when their contracts expire.
Given how close he came to being included in Steve Clarke’s Scotland squad for the European Championships, it is evident how highly regarded he is.
In addition, he is attracting interest from numerous teams in England and Europe, proving that he is a highly sought-after player.
He now appears intent on joining the Rangers, with a cost to be decided upon while scheduling a physical.
In his first full summer in command, Clement has had a great start for the Rangers, provided they add Kelly to their roster in addition to Barron.
