Rangers have had a £4m bid for Ben Davies accepted by Liverpool as Gio van Bronckhorst moves quickly to replace Ajax-bound Calvin Bassey.
Bassey was is putting the finishing touches to his record-breaking £20m-plus move to the Amsterdam giants after agreeing a four-year deal with the option of a further 12 months. Now Davies is expected to undergo a medical this week ahead of becoming Rangers’ seventh summer signing as a straight replacement for the Nigeria international.
Rangers are set to bank just under £19m up front for Bassey with a further £4m in add-ons and have secured a 10 per cent sell-on clause as part of the deal. And a portion of that will be spent on Davies who spent last season on loan at Sheffield United making 23 appearances. A £4m fee - with £3m up front - has been agreed between the clubs and Davies will head north to talk personal terms in the coming days.
