As reported by The Express, Rangers are interested in bringing Liverpool youngster Ben Woodburn to Ibrox this summer.

What’s the story?

The Light Blues have already made transfer moves in the close-season with the likes of Allan McGregor, Scott Arfield and Jamie Murphy all making permanent switches to the club.

With Steven Gerrard set to officially take charge of the Gers shortly, many more are expected this summer, with the prospect of him using his Liverpool contacts a real possibility.

The Express report that Ben Woodburn is one of the new manager’s priorities, looking to sign him on a loan deal and giving him a taste of regular first-team football.

Rated at £4.5m by Transfermarkt, can the Gers secure the immediate future of one of Britain’s most talented teenagers?

Is he ready for first team football?

Woodburn is still just 18 and Jurgen Klopp has been sure to limit his exposure to the high pressures of the Liverpool first team, making just 10 appearances since his initial stunning debut in November 2016, becoming the club’s youngest ever goalscorer.

He is also the Welsh national team’s second-youngest goalscorer and has won seven caps with the national team.

While his experience isn’t exactly huge, he clearly has immense talent and no-one will know that better than Steven Gerrard, who worked with the play as a youth coach at Anfield.

The Scottish Premiership is a tough but achievable standard for the youngster and well supported by Gerrard, he could definitely be a hit at Ibrox next season and add the excitement of youth to their attack.
