Rangers are reportedly close to bringing Sheyi Ojo to Ibrox.
Rangers are close to wrapping up a loan deal for Sheyi Ojo, report the Daily Record.
The move to bring the winger to Ibrox is a coup after Liverpool’s valuation of Ojo last summer.
Goal reported Liverpool were open to selling Ojo, but only at £15 million.
Liverpool ended up loaning the winger out, after handing him a contract extension.
An underwhelming season at Reims followed, and Ojo is now looking for a fresh start with Rangers.
A poor loan spell in France clearly has not put Rangers off, and nor should it.
Ryan Kent had a tough stint on loan in Germany with Freiburg, before his successful season on loan at Ibrox last season.
Steven Gerrard knows Ojo well, he has trained with him, and he clearly has confidence Ojo can contribute to the team’s success.
Ojo played a role in Fulham winning promotion a year earlier, prompting Liverpool’s high price tag.
Rangers are acting shrewdly to bring him in when interest is low.
With standards at Liverpool higher than ever, Rangers may stand a chance of a more moderately priced permanent deal if his spell at Ibrox is a success.
