Rangers could welcome two new signings to Ibrox soon.

A general view of Ibrox Stadium is seen ahead of the EURO 2016 Qualifier match between Scotland and Georgia at Ibrox Stadium on October 11, 2014 in Glasgow, Scotland.

According to a report from American Soccer Now, Rangers have offered permanent deals to trialists Matt Polster and Andrew Gutman.

The Gers are set to be in the market for new additions in January, and boss Steven Gerrard decided to look at a couple of potential signings last week.

Rangers brought in right back Polster and left back Gutman for training last week, handing the American duo trials in Glasgow ahead of potentially winning deals.

Fans may have been left wondering what the future holds for Polster and Gutman, and American Soccer News’ respected reporter Brian Sciaretta has reported that Rangers have offered contracts to the pair.

It’s noted that neither player has decided whether to sign or not, but Gutman is believed to be more likely than Polster at this stage in the process.

Right back Polster, 25, has made 90 appearances for Chicago Fire but looks set to move on on a free transfer in 2019, with a move to join his boyhood hero Gerrard potentially in the pipeline.

Meanwhile, left back Gutman is currently with Indiana University in the US collegiate system, and could be a signing for the future having starred with his attacking quality in college.
