Sunderland ace Dylan McGeouch is reportedly a target for Blackburn Rovers, Brentford and QPR, plus Scottish Premiership rivals Rangers and Aberdeen.

Rangers are among the clubs interested in signing Dylan McGeouch when his contract at Sunderland expires this summer, according to the Northern Echo.

A Scottish international who shone north of the border alongside John McGinn at Hibernian, Sunderland appeared to have pulled off a real coup last summer when they snapped up McGeouch – albeit on a one-year deal.

But a series of injuries and the January arrival of Grant Leadbitter limited the playmaker to just 22 League One appearances. And the Northern Echo believes that McGeouch could be on his way out of the Stadium of Light, one year after he arrived.

Blackburn Rovers, Aberdeen, Queens Park Rangers and Brentford are all keen but the apparent interest from Rangers will raise plenty of eyebrows, and not just because Steven Gerrard already has a raft of central midfield options.

McGeouch spent three years in Rangers’ youth system between 2008 and 2011 but defected to join their bitter Old Firm rivals Celtic at the request of Neil Lennon.

Rangers also made a ‘very attractive offer’ to sign the 26-year-old last summer, only to be left frustrated when he joined Sunderland instead (Northern Echo).
