The Daily Record report that Rangers are considering a move for Hearts defender, John Souttar.
It’s suggested that the 22-year-old is high on Mark Allen’s list of priorities for the summer window.
Souttar is tied to Tynecastle until summer 2022, therefore, it’ll take a significant fee to prise him away.
The 6ft 2′ centre-back is already experienced at club level and is a full Scotland international.
According to the report, the Gers will scout him during today’s Scottish Cup semi-final.
It certainly makes sense for Rangers to be in the hunt for a centre-back.
They will be light in that area come the summer when Gareth McAuley’s contract expires and Joe Worrall’s heads back to parent club Nottingham Forest.
Glen Kamara and Jordan Jones fall into that category, while Souttar is another established performer in the league.
Would he be worth a substantial fee, though?
Here’s what a selection of Bears think:
