Rangers are closing in on Norwich City playmaker Todd Cantwell with the Englishman now weighing up the terms on offer at Ibrox.
That’s according to Sky Sports, who claim that Cantwell is ‘considering an offer’ from Rangers.
The decision is now in Cantwell’s hands and he is considering whether or not to make the move up to Glasgow.
Cantwell is understood to have held ‘positive talks’ with Rangers last week and was even favouring a move to Ibrox over other options.
Blackburn Rovers made a bid worth around £1.5million for Cantwell but Norwich rejected that offer.
Rovers are surely still in the mix for Cantwell but with the playmaker preferring Rangers, Michael Beale will be confident of winning the race.
