Steven Gerrard’s Ibrox club Glasgow Rangers reportedly want Oliver McBurnie at Ibrox, with Leeds United also claimed to be interested in the Swansea City striker.

Richard Keogh of Derby County holds off Oliver McBurnie of Barnsley during the Sky Bet Championship match between Derby County and Barnsley at iPro Stadium on May 6, 2018 in Derby, England.

Steven Gerrard’s Rangers reportedly want to bring Oliver McBurnie to Ibrox from Swansea City this summer, while Leeds United are also claimed to want the 21-year-old striker.

New Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has already made an offer of £4 million for the Scotland international, according to The Sun, while The Yorkshire Evening Post has reported that Leeds want the former Bradford City striker in the summer transfer window.

Oli McBurnie is seen during a training session prior to the International Friendly match between Scotland and Costa Rica at  Orium Sports Centr on March 19, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

While Rangers and Leeds will be keen on getting the deal sorted as early as possible, it seems that there will be no decision made on the future of Swansea striker McBurnie until July.

According to Wales Online, McBurnie is away on Scotland duty at the moment and his future will be decided when he returns to Swansea for pre-season at the start of July.

It has also been reported that the Swans, who will play in the Championship next season after getting relegated from the Premier League, will offer the striker a new and improved contract.

McBurnie has proved himself in the Championship, as he scored nine goals in 16 starts for Barnsley in the league during the second half of the past season following his loan move from the Swans in the January transfer window.
