Rangers have tabled an improved £2million package to land Morgan Whittaker.
The Light Blues have gone in with a fresh bid to try to land the Swansea City star. Michael Beale earlier in the day had dismissed claims of a new bid, but the approach was made after he had spoken to the media. They are now waiting to see if the offer, which would take add-ons to hit the top-line figure, will be enough.
The Ibrox side are awaiting a response from Swansea’s American owners. The Welsh club have refused to name a price for Whittaker but they are understood to want more than has been offered. The 22-year-old has told Swansea he wants to make the move to Scotland. They are actively trying to persuade him to remain and help their English Championship campaign. Whittaker sat out of last week’s game at Queens Park Rangers because his head wasn’t right after all the speculation.
