The £4m star is in pursuit of a Rangers signing

Glasgow Rangers manager Danny Rohl should be more successful in the summer transfer window than he was at the start of the year.

Ryan Naderi and Andreas Skov Olsen were brought in to strengthen the attack and combined for just two goals in the Scottish Premiership in the second half of the season.

The German striker has time on his side to make a breakthrough during his time at Ibrox, but the Danish winger has returned to Wolfsburg after the Light Blues opted not to take up the option to make his loan move to £8m.

Although those signings did not pan out in the short term, Rohl hit the jackpot by signing Belgian defender Tuur Rommens from Westerlo for £3m.

The 23-year-old talent has started eight of ten Premiership games and has amassed five 'big chances' created and 23 key passes from the back.

The Rangers made an offer to sign the Pro League defenseman

Rommens has hit the mark after joining the Pro League, scoring one goal and providing one assist in his ten appearances, and the club should be looking for more players like him.

The Ibrox giants appear to be taking direct inspiration from their deal for the Belgian defender, as he now aims to sign one of his former team-mates.

According to TEAMtalk, Glasgow Rangers are interested in a deal to sign Westerlo defender Bryan Reynolds in the upcoming summer transfer window.

The report claims that the Light Blues have already had a £2.1m offer rejected and are now preparing a second bid for the star, worth up to £4.3m.

It adds that the 24-year-old defender wants a move to Ibrox and is excited about the potential next step in his career, suggesting personal goals will not be an issue.

It is now up to the board to improve their offer to a level acceptable to the Belgian team so they can bring in the American to replace James Tavernier at right back.

How Bryan Reynolds could be the next Tuur Rommens for the Rangers

The comparison with Rommens is easy to make because the two played as defenders together during their time in Westerlo in the first half of this season, but the comparison makes sense on an even deeper level.

As mentioned above, the Belgian defender caught the eye at Ibrox in the second half of the campaign due to his prowess down the left flank, constantly creating chances for his teammates by bringing quality into the box.

Reynolds can attract attention in the same way because he is also an attacking defender who likes to go forward and put crosses into the box to create chances for his teammates in the final third.

The defender, who has been capped seven times by the USA, has been ranked highest among his peers in the Pro League's key attacking metrics this season, speaking to his willingness to get forward and his quality on the ball at the top end of the pitch.

Reynolds, who was described as “quick” by commentator Kai Watson, has the movement and quality to be an attacking full-back on Rangers' right flank, which could leave Rohl with two attacking full-backs in him and Rommens.

In addition to being an attacking player, the Westerlo defender also helped his team keep 13 clean sheets in 39 games, and won 68% of his aerial games in the league.

Like Rommens, who won 70% of his battles in the Premiership, attackers rarely find a defender in the air, which shows that he can defend the goal well when crosses are hit over the defenders' heads.

Therefore, the Gers could hit the jackpot again by signing another defender from Westerlo this summer, as Reynolds appears to have the necessary attributes to hit the ground running at Ibrox in the same way his team-mate did earlier this year.

That is why Rohl should push the board to increase their offer for the defender in the coming days, to ensure they win the race for his signature.
