Worrying reports surrounding talented Finnish international Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara have intensified as reported Premier League interest hots up.

Earlier reports suggested that four Premier League clubs are monitoring the progress of the talented midfielder, with the likes of Crystal Palace and Brighton leading the pack [Daily Mail].

Burnley and Aston Villa are also said to be interested in signing the former Arsenal Academy star and Dundee midfielder.

Crystal Palace fan blogs have followed up the interest, whilst Birmingham Live have profiled the player for supporters of Aston Villa.

Supporters of both Aston Villa and Palace have also been outspoken about the speculation.

By the sounds coming out of them, they’d probably both rather have Alfredo Morelos.

In contrast, these Rangers fans are largely desperate to keep the 24-year-old midfielder who has impressed since joining from Dundee in January.

Signed for a lowly £50k with his contract running down at Dens Park, Kamara has shown his quality at key moments for Rangers throughout his early Ibrox career.

Rangers fans will perhaps want this on a more consistent basis but there can be little doubting the immense ability of the Finnish international.

Alongside a string of impressive performances for Rangers, Kamara has also shown his class on the international stage.

Kamara’s midfield prowess has been a huge influence on bringing Finland to the brink of a first major international tournament, with his performances for the nation surely catching the eye of those clubs reported to be tailing him.

Should any of the four clubs have a real and concrete interest in Kamara in January it’ll be interesting to see how Rangers negotiate.

Is it too soon to see Kamara leave Ibrox, or will Rangers be tempted by the megabucks of the Premier League?
