Emmanuel Longelo has been linked with a last-gasp move to Rangers ahead of the deadline.

The Motherwell star is a well-known figure at Ibrox, especially after his brace in the 3-2 defeat to the Steelmen last season.

He was a standout in the Scottish Premiership last season, scoring eight goals and assisting four times, and has started this campaign well, albeit in a more defensive role.

The former Birmingham City man has played the majority of games at left-back for Alfred Johansson this season, but has been a reported target for the Bears despite the arrival of James Penrice.

A new update surrounding rumours of Longelo to Rangers has offered vital insight.

Clarity shared on Emmanuel Longelo to Rangers

Rangers were linked with a move to sign Longelo on Monday, but it hasn't taken long for the next update to come through.

According to the Daily Record, the Light Blues have no concrete interest in the Fir Park star.

But Derek McInnes does want to add to his squad before Thursday's deadline, and Portland Timbers striker Kevin Kelsy looks to be his next signing.

The Gers are expected to announce the £9million signing of the striker on Tuesday.

The Rangers boss made it clear he wanted another number nine after Youssef Chermiti's injury, but there is still one more position he wants to address.

McInnes pushes for new transfer after Kevin Kelsy

It's said that McInnes is still hunting another winger, even after the arrival of Kim Min-su from Girona.

Brighton's Amario Cozier-Duberry is still "very much" on Rangers' radar, amid links of a £10m move, it is reported.

The Seagulls may only wish to sanction a loan exit for the former Arsenal academy prospect, something the Bears may have to compromise with.

He was an unused substitute in Brighton's 4-3 defeat to Chelsea on the weekend, and is a target for several English Championship clubs, including Middlesbrough.
