We 'signed' Billy Gilmour for Rangers in January transfer and he was a star under Michael Beale

Scotland international Billy Gilmour has been tipped with a loan move to Rangers, with new boss Michael Beale potentially looking to reinforce his squad in January.

Gilmour departed the Ibrox for Chelsea in 2017 at just 16 years old, and in his first few seasons at Stamford Bridge, Gilmour had immense expectations on his shoulders with some impressive performances in the first team under ex-manager Frank Lampard. But, after an underwhelming loan move to Norwich and a permanent transfer to fellow Premier League club Brighton and Hove Albion, the now 21-year-old finds himself on the bench more often than not.

It's believed that Gilmour would be open to a move away from Brighton in January in a bid to get some game time, with a Rangers return potentially on the card for the Scotsman. Speaking about Gilmour on Go Radio, former Celtic man Andy Walker feels "his heart is probably in Scotland with Rangers at Ibrox, but I'm not sure he would want to leave the Premier League in England."
