Rangers are reportedly keen to bring Albert Rachi to Ibrox.

Rangers manager Steven Gerrard is seen during the Scottish Premier League match between Rangers and Hibernian at Ibrox Stadium on May 05, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

According to the Glasgow Evening Times, Rangers are looking to snap up Tottenham Hotspur teenager Albert Rachi this summer.

The Gers have already landed Steven Davis, Jake Hastie and Jordan Jones for next season, but Steven Gerrard will continue his recruitment drive in the coming weeks.

Rangers will also take a look to the future, and with Sporting Lisbon’s Umaro Balde believed to be on the way in, another youngster is wanted.

The Glasgow Evening Times claim that Albanian youngster Rachi, currently with Tottenham Hotspur, is another player wanted for next season.

Rachi, who turns 16 in July, only joined Spurs last term, joining their Under-16 side last summer having progressed in the Eurostar academy.

The midfielder is described as ‘smooth and fast’ by Eurostar, who praise his ‘extreme speed’ and believe he plays beyond his years.

That’s encouraging for Rangers, and they’ll hope that the lure of a move to Ibrox can tempt Rachi into leaving Tottenham after just a year in North London.
