Jamie Murphy can replace Ryan Kent at Rangers.

Rangers vies with Oliver manager Steven Gerrard is seen during the Ladbrokes Premier League match between Celtic and Rangers at Celtic Park on March 31, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Fortunately the Gers will already have a winger ready to replace him in house.

Jamie Murphy has missed nearly the entire season after suffering a knee ligament injury.

He is closing in on a return after recently resuming training.

Manager Steven Gerrard has told the Daily Record there is a ‘small chance’ Murphy could even play again this season.

Rangers really don’t need to rush the winger.

Jamie Murphy is seen during a training session prior to the International Friendly match between Scotland and Costa Rica at  Orium Sports Centr on March 19, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Murphy has so much to offer Rangers and will be keen to make up for lost time.

The former Brighton ace managed six goals and 13 assists for Rangers in 27 appearance, according to Transfermarkt.

That’s an impressive record and a sign of what he is capable of at his best.
