Rangers could make another addition to their squad after Steven Gerrard took a promising young player on trial.

The Mail report Mile Todorov is training with Rangers and hopes to earn a move to the Scottish giants.

Here are five facts about Todorov, who could be Rangers’ next signing…

1) Todorov is 19-years-old and is currently under contract to Croatian side NK Novigrad until 2020.

2) The youngster is a versatile player who has most recently played in defensive midfield role. He has previously lined up as a right winger, and as a central attacking midfielder.

Steven Gerrard is unveiled as the new manager of Rangers football Club at Ibrox Stadium on May 4, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

3) He has 18 first team appearances to his name so far at club level, with two goals.

4) Todorov was on the winning side as Macedonia’s under-19s beat England last year 2-0. The England side boasted Phil Foden and Jadon Sancho.

5) Todorov’s club Novigrad host the prestigious Istria Youth Cup in Croatia each year, in which Rangers competed last season along with Benfica and Manchester City.

The Express report Todorov will be available from Todorov for ‘a small fee’. It is not often a club allows a talented youth international out on trial so Rangers are wise to take advantage of the opportunity.

Rangers are not short of options in midfield, but if Steven Gerrard and his team like the teenager’s potential, then a bargain transfer would be a low risk gamble.
