Rangers are hot on the heels of David Watson and want to beat their arch-rivals, Celtic, to his services.
Watson, an attacking midfielder, is currently plying his trade at SPFL rivals Kilmarnock.
The 21-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season, meaning the Gers can snap up his services on a free transfer.
49ers Enterprises are set to back Danny Rohl in the transfer window
According to TEAMtalk, the 49ers Enterprises, who are part of the Rangers ownership, are willing to back Danny Rohl financially in the summer transfer window.
The Gers manager is keen on Watson, but will have to convince the Scotsman to move to Ibrox as Celtic, along with clubs in England and Italy, also want to sign him.
Rohl, in his first transfer window at the club in January, was given four new signings, and all of them have arguably strengthened the playing eleven.
Despite the summer transfer window not opening until June, the German has already held positive meetings with the board.
The 49ers are set to give him a “great” backing financially to bring his desired targets to the club.
Rangers News reported that Andrew Cavenagh is also backing Rohl to succeed, and there are no plans to make any changes even if the club end the season trophyless.
This transfer development proves that everyone is singing from the same hymn sheet behind the scenes.
How David Watson will make Rangers a better team
Watson is the captain of the Scotland Under-21s, so his addition will bring in much-needed leadership inside the dressing room.
He is known for his high work rate and ability to perform on big occasions, especially when the chips are down.
Rangers need more big-game players akin to Youssef Chermiti, and Watson will provide that for them.
While he may not be an immediate starter, he could contribute off the bench initially and then make the number 10 role his own.
Given his passing range and box-to-box ability, he can play as a deep-lying playmaker as well, and could also do what Connor Barron does, given his capability to break up play and recycle possession.
