Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has reportedly decided that Jordan Rossiter can leave.

According to a report in the Daily Express, Glasgow Rangers could offload Jordan Rossiter to Joey Barton’s Fleetwood Town this month.

Rossiter has struggled with injury ever since moving to Ibrox in 2017, and Rangers are now prepared to get rid of the midfielder.

Gerrard is open to offers for the former Liverpool youngsters, who is now expected to leave Rangers this month.

Fleetwood and Dundee United are both interested in taking the Rangers prospect on loan.

A move to the Cod Army would be very interesting as it would provide Rossiter the chance to link up with Barton again, as he did briefly during the midfielder’s playing days at Ibrox.

Rangers have already signed Steven Davis this month to bolster their midfield ranks, and his arrival has knocked Rossiter further down the pecking order at the Glasgow club.

Rossiter has made just five appearances for Rangers this season, with Gerrard seemingly feeling he has better options now.
