Where Connor Barron stands after Rangers transfer latest as Sevilla plans emerge

Connor Barron has been linked with a move to Sevilla from Rangers this transfer window.

There have been suggestions that the LaLiga club are ready to make a move for the Scotland international in the final weeks of the transfer window.

As things stand, the Gers have plenty of options in midfield and there will likely be more departures after Mohamed Diomande's exit.

Barron's future at Ibrox feels uncertain and the stories about Sevilla being in for him surely complicate his situation.

Last season, the 23-year-old arguably had his best spell at the Glaswegian outfit under Danny Rohl before unfortunately picking up an injury.

With the Govan side reinforcing their engine room with Dan Neil, Cammy Devlin and Vanja Dragojevic this summer, it will be interesting to see who Derek McInnes chooses to rely on.

What Sevilla's stance is on Connor Barron transfer from Rangers

There was a report on Wednesday claiming Sevilla had made an approach for Barron.

West Ham United are also in the race for the midfielder after appointing Nils Koppen as director of player recruitment.

Now, according to El Pespunte on 13 August, Sevilla have been dismissed as an option for Barron.

There seems to be no truth behind the speculation of the Spanish club's interest in the Scottish ace.

While the LaLiga side are evaluating options to reinforce their engine room, the former Aberdeen player isn't on their wishlist.

Sevilla aren't in the process of evaluating a deal for Barron with the Glaswegian outfit.

Connor Barron situation at Ibrox assessed

McInnes admitted during pre-season that Barron wasn't fully fit and had picked up a slight knock in Spain.

With the 55-year-old head coach's arrival at Ibrox, many would have surely thought the midfielder would play an important role this season.

The ex-Hearts boss places emphasis on having a Scottish core, but he seems to have veered away from that philosophy at the Gers, as evidenced by his ruthless decision to cut John Souttar from the squad.

If Barron does stay at the Glaswegian outfit for the 2026-27 campaign, he will face plenty of competition for his place in the starting lineup.

It wouldn't be surprising to see the midfielder leave the Govan side, but Sevilla doesn't look like an option for him.
