Rangers eyeing up move for “classy” £5.5m star, he could be their own Moises Caicedo

Rangers have watched a South American sensation as Clement aims to bolster his side

Glasgow Rangers have already started their winter transfer business with intent, bringing in striker Fabio Silva on a loan deal to Ibrox until the end of the current campaign.

It proves that Philippe Clement isn’t resting on his laurels following a positive start to his spell at the Gers and is clearly looking for ways to bolster his squad.

With the winter break in operation until 20 January, the Light Blues have a week left to prepare for the second half of the season and, considering they are fighting on both domestic and European fronts, more signings are a necessity rather than a want.

With this in mind, a few names have been mentioned regarding a potential move to Ibrox, but the latest player could perhaps be the most exciting link yet…

Rangers transfer news – Oscar Zambrano

It comes as no surprise to any of the supporters that Clement is targeting a midfielder this month, especially as this area of the first team has been struck with plenty of injuries to key players.

The likes of John Lundstram, Jose Cifuentes, Ryan Jack, and Nico Raskin were all unavailable at one stage, leading to the 49-year-old coach playing Dujon Sterling and Kieran Dowell – a right back and attacking midfielder – as his pairing at the heart of the midfield at one stage.

According to journalist Graeme Bailey, the Light Blues are watching midfielder Oscar Zambrano, yet they face an almighty battle to secure his signature this month.

Celtic are also keen admirers, but it is the clout of the Premier League which may prove to be the destination for the 19-year-old talent.

Luton Town and Brighton & Hove Albion have discussed making a move for the player, according to Bailey, yet it is AFC Bournemouth who are emerging as the frontrunners for his signature.

An alleged price tag of £5.5m may prove to be a stumbling block unless Clement can move on some deadwood this month, but he will have to be swift considering the teams who are watching him.
