Rangers have won the race to sign Millwall teen sensation Zak Lovelace after Record Sport first revealed in January the Ibrox side were on the trail of the striker.
And the Light Blues have beaten a host of clubs to land the player who made his top-team debut in the Championship for the Lions at the age of just 15. He is the second youngest player to ever appear for the club and had to get permission from his school to play.
The frontman doesn’t turn 17 until January 2023 but has already made a handful appearances in English football’s second tier after his scoring exploits at youth level for the south Londoners. New Den boss Gary Rowett has frequently allowed Lovelace to train with the first team but, speaking earlier this year, admitted he was powerless to stop him leaving Millwall. English Premier League pair Leicester City and Brighton were just two of the top flight clubs linked with a move for him but Lovelace has reportedly informed Millwall that will join Rangers and can officially join the Ibrox club on July 1 when his registration finishes at the New Den.
