Rangers make Manchester United starlet a transfer ‘priority’ but face competition

Rangers have made signing a Manchester United starlet a transfer "priority" this summer, according to reports.

Philippe Clement knows the importance of adding extra reinforcements to his Rangers squad before the Scottish Premiership season gets underway next weekend. 

He's expected to lose Todd Cantwell, Sam Lammers and Connor Goldson, while captain James Tavernier, and Scott Wright could also follow suit through the Ibrox exit door. 

Cantwell has already been demoted to the Light Blues' 'B' team - emphasising the requirement for another midfielder. Particularly since panic buttons are beginning to be raised following a string of poor pre-season performances.

Hannibal Mejbri could prove the solution, with Rangers apparently in "advanced talks" to land the wonder-kid on-loan for the 2024/25 campaign.

Manchester United allowed the 21-year-old to join Sevilla on a short term deal in January, but the Tunisian internationalist only managed to make six appearances, showing that he perhaps isn't quite ready to make the step up into Erik ten Hag's first team squad at Old Trafford. 

Mejbri may follow in the foot steps of United teammate, Amad Diallo, who had a spell with the Scottish Premiership giants two years ago. 

Although, Africafoot claim Copenhagen are also keen on landing the promising youngster.
