Billy Gilmour and the Rangers transfer trump card as forgotten Brighton ally named potential dealmaker

Rangers have been urged to "explore" a move for Billy Gilmour this summer - with David Weir's position at Brighton touted as a potential driving force behind the move.

The Ibrox academy graduate has stalled since exploding onto the Chelsea first-team scene - where he lifted the Champions League - after his a loan switch to relegated Norwich City didn't go to plan last term, while he has failed to make his mark at the Amex Stadium so far this season. He's started just twice under new boss Roberto de Zerbi after being brought in by Graham Potter and hasn't had a minute of football since February.

Things didn't get any better for the 21-year-old after being called up for Scotland's Euro 2024 qualifiers double header, where he failed to make it off the bench in the victories over Cyprus and Spain. Concerns over Gilmour's progress has seen a potential return to Rangers floated with former captain Barry Ferguson urging the Ibrox side to make an approach to the Premier League side.
