Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers have a chance to bring one of their own back to Scotland.

Charlie Gilmour of Arsenal scores their second goal during the Premier League 2 game between Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal on October 23, 2017 in Enfield, England.

Rangers probably won’t get a better chance of signing Charlie Gilmour.

The Gers-daft midfielder is available on a free transfer after Arsenal released him on Friday – and Steven Gerrard should seriously consider bringing him to Ibrox.

Not only would he not cost a penny, but Gilmour, who turned 20 in February, is a massive Rangers fan.

He once posted on Twitter that he’d rather see Kenny Miller score an Old Firm winner than win the lottery, and surely a stint in Glasgow would appeal to him.

After all, Glen Kamara, who also failed to make the grade in North London, looks to be a star in the making under Gerrard and the Finland international’s success at Auchenhowie may entice Gilmour.

This is a player who, like Kamara, will put his Arsenal disappointment to one side and dazzle somewhere, and the Gers’ manager needs to at least ask if Gilmour – whose grandfather would love him to join Rangers [The Scottish Sun] – wants to further his prospects in Glasgow.
