Rangers ‘target’ right back rival for James Tavernier as ‘nine clubs’ in the trade race for ex-Leeds United

Rangers are allegedly one of nine clubs after Hull City defender Cody Drameh.

Russell Martin was named last week and will increase his summer recruitment campaign in the coming weeks, with the squad returning for pre-season training on June 23.

According to rumors in England, Drameh is drawing interest, which might mean he competes with captain James Tavernier for the right back slot, which Martin is keeping.

The 23-year-old has failed to find consistent playing time since signing from Leeds United about a year ago, owing in large part to Tigers captain Lewie Coyle being the preferred right-back.

And there are plenty of clubs interested in the player. Former Hibs manager Paul Heckingbottom wants to take him to Preston North End, while his former Birmingham City manager, ex-Rangers trialist John Eustace, is determined to bring him to Derby.

According to the paper, “along with a host of other clubs, including Scottish giants Rangers, Liam Rosenior, now in charge at Strasbourg, remains a huge fan, having been the key driver in Drameh’s original move to the club.”

And they continue, “City are not thought to be actively trying to sell Drameh, but if they were approached with a seven-figure offer for a player under contract for two more years, plus the option of a further 12 months, it is believed they would consider selling.” So yet, none of the bids on the table have met the valuation.”
