Free agent Ross Barkley has reportedly been offered to Rangers after leaving Chelsea.
The Stamford Bridge club cut their losses on the 28-year-old after the England international failed to make his mark during a four-and-a-half spell in in London. Barkley penned a £15million signing from Everton in 2018, and was shipped out on loan to Aston Villa last season, but his career has largely stuttered since leaving Goodison Park as one of the Premier League's top prospects.
Rangers have been touted with considering a deal for the free agent with transfer deadline day looming, having also been tipped as a potential target for Celtic earlier in the summer. Barkley's wages could be a deterring factor amid reports he earned a staggering £200,000-a-week package with the Blues, but Football Scotland report Barkley's name has "come up in discussions after his agent floated his name to the Gers recruitment team about a possible link-up."
