Calvin Bassey has been left out of the Rangers side to face Blackpool amid frenzied speculation surrounding his future. English Premier League outfit Brighton as well as Dutch champions Ajax have both tabled offers for the versatile defender.

The Seagulls have submitted a bid of £16million, while de Godenzoden are willing to shell out £19million plus add-ons. However, the Europa League finalists believe either meets their valuation of the Nigerian international.

They are keen to keep a hold of Bassey unless they receive a fee in the region of £25millions. The Ibrox club believe they can command top dollar for the former Leicester kid, who starred in their run to the Europa League final last season.

Joe Aribo has already departed.He left for Southampton last weekend in a deal worth an initial £6million to the Scottish Cup winners, and it could rise to £10million if certain conditions are met.
