Reported £15m international spotted in Rangers jersey amid Ibrox links

Harry Souttar is one name which scarcely goes a transfer window without being linked to Rangers.

The boyhood bluenose, 25, was reportedly an Ibrox transfer target at the beginning of last season with all the sounds around Harry Souttar heading into deadline day.

The brother of Rangers centre-half John Souttar, something tells us that the chatter around a move to Ibrox isn’t going to go away for the big Australian international.

And now, as if to add fuel to the fire ahead of the summer, Souttar has been spotted in a Rangers jersey after Leicester City earned promotion to the Premier League.

Souttar spotted in Rangers jersey

Harry Souttar and his Leicester City teammates certainly look to be enjoying their successful Championship campaign this season.

Bouncing back to the Premier League at the first time of asking, Enzo Maresca’s side were crowned champions in the English second tier and look forward to an assault on the big time next season.

As the players enjoyed some downtime, Harry Souttar has shared a picture of himself alongside King Power teammates Conor Coady, Harry Winks and Marc Albrighton on Instagram.

But eagle-eyed Rangers fans will noticed that the 21-times capped Aussie defender is wearing a classic Rangers jersey.

Donning the famous Nike jersey from 1997-98, the snap certainly proves Souttar’s Ibrox allegiances and will do little to dispel transfer talk surrounding the centre-back heading into the summer.

Rangers on defender transfer hunt

Harry Souttar is certainly an interesting option for Rangers ahead of ‘quite a rebuild’ at Ibrox.

The left-sided defender cost Leicester City £15m from Stoke City 18 months ago but the defender has found chances at a premium this season.

Making only four appearances all season, including only three in the Championship, it’s clear the centre-back isn’t a big part of Enzo Maresca’s plans for the Foxes.

Souttar himself has previously been blunt about his future at the club.

Rangers would clearly be a favourable option for the centre-back but it is not clear how a deal would be financed, or if Rangers are interested.

Last summer Rangers reportedly missed out on a deal for Harry Souttar because Stoke City failed to put forward a suitable package to bring Ibrox centre-back Ben Davies to the Britannia.

With Rangers also in ‘advanced talks’ over Panama centre-back Jose Cordoba, for the time being at least it appears the Gers’ left-sided centre-back hopes are pinned elsewhere.
