Rangers should look at signing Bobby Adekanye, who has a goal at Ibrox on his CV already.
There are a few obvious names for Steven Gerrard to want to try and bring to Rangers when he begins at Ibrox.
Harry Wilson, Dominic Solanke and Rhian Brewster are top Liverpool youngsters who would benefit from a move, but Gerrard should also consider Bobby Adekanye.
Adekanye is an exciting prospect at Liverpool and scored at Ibrox earlier this season when Gerrard’s Reds’ under-18s won 4-1 against Rangers.
Liverpool signed Adekanye from Barcelona in 2015 and he has been in their academy since.
This season he has also featured for Liverpool’s under-23 squad 13 times and scored three goals in eight games in the under-19 UEFA Youth League.
Born in Nigeria, Adekanye has a Dutch passport and is not subject to requirements of a work permit.
He turned 19 in February and this upcoming season is his time to go out on loan.
Gerrard, who has already worked with the winger, is set to be ideally placed to hand Adekanye his first loan opportunity.
Gerrard told the Liverpool Echo earlier this season how he had worked closely with Adekanye to improve his contribution off the ball.
A switch to Rangers could work well for Liverpool, who may prefer to keep hold of winger Harry Wilson.
It would not be a big name for the Gers, but Adekanye would be the type of gamble they have to make within their financial limitations and on loan he would be worth the gamble.
