Rangers have been handed a potential boost in their pursuit to secure the services of Milan Vitalis from Gyori ETO.
The Light Blues will need to hurry up with their transfer proceedings as Celtic also hold an interest in the midfielder.
Vitalis is a man in demand around Europe, but there is a possibility of him being allowed to leave in the coming weeks.
What is your reaction to the new third kit?
It's fair to say a lot of Rangers fans have hated it…
Sander Van Praet open to selling Milan Vitalis for the right price
Gyori’s sporting director Sander Van Praet has admitted that the club will consider the valuation of bids they receive for the 24-year-old midfielder.
He has acknowledged that there are plenty of reports surrounding the Hungarian’s future, but has not closed the door on his departure.
This is undoubtedly a boost for the clubs interested in signing him, including Rangers, as club chiefs usually rule out sales of players they plan on keeping whenever they’re asked about them.

How do you see this one going?
In other words, Van Praet is sending a message out that the midfielder is up for sale should clubs be willing to match their expectations.
He said: “There are a lot of transfer rumours circulating during this period.
“We examine all interest, consider the value of the offer and the player’s aspects.
“Until an offer is received that is suitable for all parties, both of them are ETO players, and we invest energy in their development every day.”
Can Vitalis be a Jens Hjerto-Dahl backup for Rangers?
Rangers are still in hot pursuit of Jens Hjerto-Dahl, but Tromso are proving to be notoriously hard to deal with.
The Light Blues can walk away if they feel like there is not enough progress on that front and could very well turn to Vitalis.
What changes would you like to see at Ibrox?
The money is there to be spent!
The Hungarian midfielder is capable of playing in a deep-lying role, but can also thrive when asked to play further up the pitch.
He’s comfortable playing with both feet and is known for his press resistance, something that Derek McInnes will admire.
While he does not have that burst of pace and ability to carry the ball through the thirds like Hjerto-Dahl, he offers a different kind of threat and would add value to the Light Blues side.
