Rangers should try to bring Stuart Dallas to Ibrox as a replacement for Jamie Murphy.
Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has admitted winger Jamie Murphy fears the worst after suffering an injury at the weekend, speaking to Herald Scotland
The report adds that the Rangers boss has ‘admitted that the injury to Murphy could increase the importance of new signings being brought on board.’
There are just days left before the Scottish transfer window closes on the 31st, and Gerrard should make Leeds United winger Stuart Dallas his top target to bring to Ibrox.
The easy route would be to target a young Premier League winger, but Rangers already have one in Ryan Kent, and a senior player like Dallas would be a better like for like replacement for Dallas.
Dallas is a Northern Ireland international who starred at Euro 2016, and one who faces a battle for his role at Leeds.
The 27-year-old is currently out with a minor injury of his own, but expected back within a fortnight.
He has not featured for Leeds this season and will face a tough task to get into a team with a 100 per cent record after four games.
Last season Dallas was used more as a left-back than a left-winger, and Rangers could perhaps entice him with the promise of an attacking role like the one Murphy has fulfilled.
Leeds are going places under Bielsa and Dallas may take some convincing to leave, but Rangers and the allure of working under Steven Gerrard could be tempting too.
Dallas is a Rangers supporter, making social media comments previously backing the Gers after Old Firm games.
In an ideal world, Jamie Murphy will get the all clear and Rangers will not need to sign a replacement.
But if they are not so fortunate, Dallas should be among their top targets.
