West Brom must “consider reasonable offers” for members of their squad this summer, including Rangers target Karlan Grant according to the Express & Star.

The publication notes that one Baggies player who could attract such an offer over the coming months is the 25-year-old forward.

The Express & Star added that Grant is currently out of favour at The Hawthorns, having seen a loan move to Swansea City fall through in January.

“Players out of favour such as Karlan Grant, who still has three years remaining on his contract, are the type the Baggies would ideally like to offload,” according to the Express & Star.

“The 25-year-old, who saw a loan move to Swansea break down late in the January transfer window, has been attracting some interest from Rangers.

“But the reality is the club must consider reasonable offers for any member of the playing squad. Albion’s business, at least in the early weeks of the window, will be dictated by the market.”

One to watch

Rangers manager Michael Beale has made no secret of his desire to strengthen his squad this summer, with the Gers having lost several players upon the expiry of their contracts at Ibrox.

Among those exits were forwards Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent, meaning Beale will undoubtedly want to bolster his attacking options ahead of the new campaign as he looks to close the gap on fierce rivals Celtic.

The boss has already made big moves in terms of transfers with the pre-contract signatures of goalkeeper Jack Butland, defender Dujon Sterling and midfielder Kieran Dowell, but fans will want the new signings to keep on coming as the weeks go on.

Grant hasn’t had a great time at The Hawthorns lately, but his career could get back on track with a switch to Scotland, with his versatility definitely something that could persuade Beale to bring the attacker to Ibrox this summer.

In other Rangers news, one exit-bound Gers player is wanted across the world in an ‘exceptionally shrewd’ deal, according to Sky Sports.
