Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara is reportedly a January transfer target for a host of Premier League clubs including the likes of Everton, Leeds United and Newcastle United.

The Finnish international midfielder, 24, has also been linked to Borussia Dortmund, Dynamo Kyiv and Lille with the ex-Arsenal youngster hot property and 13 clubs interested according to TEAMtalk.

But if any of these teams do come a-knocking – then they better be prepared to stump up for the midfield maestro.

Kamara’s game has grown to new heights in recent months as the midfielder becomes a big game player for both club and country.

Steven Gerrard has spoken openly about his desires to get the ex-Dundee man tied down on a new contract [Rangers] with his current deal having just over two and a half years to run.

Rangers infamously signed the midfielder for £50k after he originally signed a pre-contract at Ibrox club following a short spell at Dundee.

But his value has skyrocketed in royal blue and there’s no doubt that he’d be touching at the very least around the £10m-£15m mark should clubs come calling.

That’s the bare minimum Rangers should be demanding for a player still to reach the top of his game with his close control, use of the ball and massive engine already the envy of teams across Europe.

And that’s not to say that the club should be looking to sell Kamara but this is the business model we’ve been building towards and the one which will eventually need to bear fruit.

Rangers have a real asset on their hands in the shape of the resourceful midfielder and should anyone be serious about signing the player, they best prepare to put up or shut up.

It’s not just the manager who’s been praising Glen for his progress in a Rangers shirt either – here’s a wonderful rendition of a repurposed Oasis classic uploaded especially for the midfielder by talented singer Jodie Pollok.
