Rangers keen to land Jacob Murphy

Newcastle winger Jacob Murphy is a target for Rangers in the winter transfer window.

According to the football transfer rumours in British media, Rangers are keen to land Newcastle United winger Jacob Murphy.

The 25-year-old has been with Newcastle since 2017, having signed for the club from Norwich City for 11.3 million euros. The England international’s current deal expires in 2021.

The winger has featured in 6 matches for Newcastle this term, netting 2 goals and providing one assist in all competitions.

Jacob Murphy has represented England at Under-18, Under-19, Under-20 and Under-21 level, winning 11 caps and scoring one goal.

The 25-year-old is set to be a man in demand in the winter transfer window, with a host of clubs queuing up to pursue his signature.

Steven Gerrard wants to sign a new winger and Murphy is one of the names at the top of his wishlist. He is a known admirer of the player and is reportedly keen on the idea of bringing him this winter.

Jacob Murphy would provide a good variety to Rangers’ attack.

According to the report, “Rangers are still keen on signing Newcastle United star Jacob Murphy. The winger has impressed so far this season under Steve Bruce in the Premier League. Scottish giants Rangers have had an interest in Murphy since the summer. Now the Daily Record claims Gers boss Steven Gerrard still wants to sign the Englishman. But it is unclear if the player would want the move, when he could sign a new contract with Newcastle. He may be happy at getting more game time with the Magpies this season.”
