Rangers may yet have a glimmer of hope to re-sign Mikey Moore this summer.

The Bears enjoyed a full season of magic from the young winger, who grabbed 11 goals and assists combined while in Scotland.

It's no secret that the Light Blues are keen to bring the 18-year-old back to Ibrox, though they have been stumped by the news that he could be going abroad next.

Tottenham do not want to sell Moore, but view a move abroad as one that is best for his next step.

Derek McInnes' arrival doesn't change anything for the Govan side, who would like to bring the forward back this summer.

Rangers may be in luck, as Spurs seem to have put a halt on a move abroad in the latest update.

How Rangers could be in luck with Mikey Moore

Rangers have a genuine interest in re-signing Moore this summer, though their recent transfer activity suggests that they are planning for life without the young gem.

The teenager has suitors all across Europe, but FC Koln in Germany have emerged as the favoured destination.

According to credible Tottenham insider, Lilywhite Rose, Moore's proposed move to the Bundesliga side has been put on hold by Spurs.

He is now set to play in the Lilywhites' friendly against Getafe on Saturday.

There's no revealed reason as to why this transfer has been put on hold, but what it does for Rangers is give them time.

The Bears will have no doubt been in the back of the forward's mind all summer long, and the delay gives the club more time to try and convince him of a return.

Tottenham injury could be reason for Moore transfer delay

Rangers have seen that they are in need of new wingers from their first two games of the season.

The Gers have been trying in the market, but have stepped away from their attempts to land Frosinone's Fares Ghedjemis for the time being while they try to sign PSV's Couhaib Driouech.

Tottenham may have delayed Moore's expected loan move due to another injury setback involving James Maddison.

The former England international has re-injured his hip after previous struggles in the same part of his body, with some suggestions that Moore can play in the number 10 role instead.

Either way, Moore hasn't move to Koln yet, which gives Rangers fresh hope in their bid to bring him back.
