Kilmarnock striker Eamonn Brophy has reportedly been attracting interest from Rangers and Leeds United.
English Championship side Leeds United and Scottish Premiership outfit Rangers could potentially be fighting it out for the same player this summer.
TeamTalk have claimed that Rangers are set to make a move for Kilmarnock forward Eamonn Brophy this summer, with Championship duo Leeds and Derby also showing interest in his services.
It is said that the Gers are set to part ways with their hot-headed striker Alfredo Morelos and they want to replace him with Killie’s main man up top.
Brophy played a vital role in helping Kilmarnock finish third during the recently concluded Scottish Premiership season, which helped them book a European spot.
But the 23-year-old 5ft7 ace has a big decision to make in what he does in the distant future as a host of clubs show their interest in his services.
He could either stay in Scotland’s top-flight and join a Rangers team that will be pushing for the title next season or make a switch down south and team up with Leeds and their highly-regarded coach Marcelo Bielsa.
Given Bielsa’s qualities, it is highly likely that he and his coaching staff at Leeds would take Brophy’s career to a much higher level than what Steven Gerrard would potentially be able to do at Ibrox.
Bielas has a knack of bringing the absolute best out of players and he showcased that as he helped a Leeds team that finished mid-table last term to completely transform them and guide them to third spot.
Added with that, the Yorkshire outfit will be pushing for a return to the Premier League next season and the lure of possibly playing in the big time should just prove to Brophy a move to Elland Road would better his career more than a move to Rangers.
