Rangers are reportedly set to bring winger Sheyi Ojo to Ibrox.
According to the Daily Record, Rangers have agreed a deal to take Liverpool winger Sheyi Ojo on loan, and he’ll join up for training next week.
The Gers have already secured pre-contract agreements for two wingers in Jordan Jones and Jake Hastie, but Steven Gerrard clearly felt one more was needed.
He’s calling in another favour from former club Liverpool with a loan move for Ojo, almost a year since taking Ovie Ejaria and Ryan Kent on loan from the Reds.
Ojo has allegedly agreed a move to Rangers, and will join up with his new Ibrox teammates next week when they begin pre-season training ahead of the Europa League campaign.
It’s currently unclear whether Ojo is joining instead of or as well as Ryan Kent, with Rangers still left waiting for Liverpool’s decision on last season’s Ibrox loan star.
Ojo, 21, will be looking to emulate Kent though. Kent had a couple of disappointing loan spells before rekindling his career under Gerrard, and Ojo needs that now too.
Disappointing stints with Fulham and Stade Reims mean Ojo’s reputation is plummeting, and whilst he’s still young, he needs to bounce back with a strong season at Rangers, or else his Liverpool career will likely be over.
Big, strong, quick and skilful on his day, Ojo is another player who can play on the right flank, joining Daniel Candeias and Jake Hastie, with the trio potentially battling it out for top spot in pre-season.
