A former teammate of Gareth Bale at LAFC could be set to depart MLS, with Scottish giants Rangers potentially among the suitors for his signature.
Ecuadorian midfielder Jose Cifuentes has spent the last three years in California, starring alongside the likes of Gareth Bale and Carlos Vela in that time and contributing to the club's first ever MLS Cup success last term. However, his time stateside could be coming to a close with his current deal about to enter its final six months, allowing clubs to speak with him about a pre-contract ahead of a free transfer from June 31.
This, of course, leaves the Los Angeles franchise in a precarious situation, meaning that time is of the essence if they have designs on making money back on their $3million (£2.4m) investment. With the 24-year-old's future far from certain at LAFC, it appears that Rangers manager Michael Beale is explore a potential deal this summer.
