Nottingham Forest boss Mark Warburton is seaid to be eyeing a reunion with the Rangers man, whom he brought to Ibrox in 2015, but Pedro Caixinha reportedly wants to keep him.

Rangers are set to open contract talks with Wes Foderingham amid Nottingham Forest interest in Ibrox goalkeeper, The Scottish Sun reports.

Forest boss Mark Warburton, who brought Foderingham to Rangers in 2015, is said to be lining up a reunion at the City Ground this summer, although he has refused to either confirm or deny his side’s interest in the player he has described as being a “tremendous ‘keeper”.

But according to The Scottish Sun, Warburton’s Ibrox successor Pedro Caixinha is keen to tie Foderingham to a long-term deal, despite him still having two years to run on his existing one.

And the 26-year-old is said to be “happy” with life in Glasgow, as well as being “open” to extending his stay at Rangers, which could force Forest to look elsewhere for a new goalkeeper.

The Championship side have begun the campaign with Jordan Smith as first choice, with Dimitar Evtimov and Stephen Henderson backing up the Reds academy graduate.

But Serbia international Vladimir Stojkovic is set to depart the City Ground, as confirmed by Warburton on Monday.
