Rangers could be set to make a second attempt to lure Barcelona kid Pablo Torre to Ibrox, according to reports in Spain.
The light blues were linked with a move for the 20-year-old when he was at former club Racing Santander. Spanish giants were all credited with an interest in the youngster but he opted to move to the Nou Camp, although he hasn’t made the impact in Xavi’s first team that many people predicted.
Torre has played just 239 minutes in the top team and now reports say his representatives have met with Barcelona chiefs to map out a plan for him next season. And it’s been widely reported that Rangers are among the options for next season. Mundo Deportivo report : “Despite only a few minutes with the first team, Pablo Torre is still a valued player and an old suitor could resume interest in the midfielder if Barca's exit door opens.
"We are talking about the Scottish (side) Rangers , a team that already tried to sign Pablo Torre last summer but the footballer ended up opting for the Catalans' proposal, who paid five million euros to Racing Santander to get him to join. Rangers have been successful this season with the loan of Malik Tillman, Bayern Munich's attacking midfielder who has scored 12 goals in 40 games, and could repeat the formula with Pablo Torre according to the latest information.”
Sporting director Ross Wilson has departed Ibrox for Nottingham Forest but Michael Beale will still be stepping up his recruitment drive for next season.
