Could Rangers sign Bright Osayi-Samuel?

In our view, Rangers could be able to sign Bright Osayi-Samuel in the summer transfer window.

That the Scottish Premiership club have made an offer for the Nigerian star shows that they are very serious about him.

The Nigeria international is 25 now, and his best years are ahead of him.

Osayi-Samuel is a versatile player who can operate as a full-back or wing-back.

The 25-year-old played on the right side for Fenerbahce this season.

The former Queens Park Rangers star made 10 starts and 13 substitute appearances in the Turkish Super Lig for Fenerbahce this season.

James Tavernier is the number one right-back at Rangers, and despite being 31 years of age now, he is at the top of his game.

Dujon Sterling is joining in the summer transfer window and is 23.

So, it is curious that Rangers are looking at bringing in another right-back in Osayi-Samuel.
