From inside Ibrox: Rangers now enquire over signing £10k-p/w speedster; he's the Nutmeg King

Glasgow Rangers have now made an enquiry to bring Josh Tymon to Ibrox, according to Football Insider’s sources within the club.

With the futures of both Borna Barisic and Calvin Bassey in doubt, it looks as if the Gers are targeting a new left-back this summer.

They have scoured the English Championship for top talent on the cheap quite recently, notably pinching John Lundstram after he left Sheffield United, and Tymon could be another player to add to the list.

As per Football Insider, Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s team have made an ‘enquiry’ over the possibility of signing Tymon, and a source from the Light Blues has revealed that they have officially registered their ‘interest’ in the Stoke City defender.

His current deal does not run out until 2025, but the Championship side may be forced to sell some of their top assets this summer, including Tymon.

Whether the Teddy Bears should make a move for Tymon will depend on if they keep hold of Bassey and Barisic. If one or both of them were to go, then the Englishman would be a worthy replacement.

Earning £10,000-per-week at Stoke, he would not be among their highest earners, and comes back off of a stellar season where he hardly missed a kick.

Tymon has earned plenty of plaudits, notably from his manager Michael O’Neill, who has noted how ‘quick’ and athletic he is.

His ability to beat players down the flank is second to none, and has even earned him the nickname of the ‘Nutmeg King’, after interestingly completing more nutmegs (14) than any other Championship player last term (StatsBomb).

Nonetheless, Tymon is still just 23 years of age, and so could flourish under van Bronckhorst’s management for years to come.
