Rangers are reportedly looking to bring Youssouf Mulumbu to Ibrox.
Rangers are bound to be in the transfer market for new signings this summer no matter who is their manager, and one player has already been linked with the club.
The Daily Mail report that Rangers hold an interest in signing Kilmarnock midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu, and are ready to battle Aberdeen, Celtic and Hibernian for his signature.
Mulumbu, 31, made his name in the Premier League with West Bromwich Albion and Norwich City, but became a free agent last summer after leaving the latter at the end of his contract.
The DR Congo international remained a free agent until November, when he was eventually signed by Kilmarnock, reuniting with his former West Brom boss Steve Clarke.
Mulumbu has responded with a host of fine performances for Killie, and he looks set to move on this summer as he will again become a free agent, but is much more in-demand this time around.
A move to Rangers would see him reunite with Graham Dorrans in midfield once again, having played together for both West Brom and Norwich – and the current Rangers ace hailed Mulumbu back in 2015.
Speaking to the East Anglian Daily Press, Dorrans called Mulumbu a technically excellent player with great steel and fitness, admitting that he enjoyed playing with him at West Brom.
Dorrans would seemingly be a fan of Rangers signing Mulumbu this summer, and Gers supporters have taken to Twitter to suggest that they would also be keen to see Rangers land the midfielder, as they want to see him up against Celtic’s Scott Brown and think that the Gers should be in talks with him already.
