Rangers pursue £15m move for Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie as Steven Gerrard targets attacking reinforcements ahead of title defence

  • Sheffield United’s Oli McBurnie has been named as a summer target for Rangers
  • McBurnie looks set to leave Bramall Lane following relegation from the top flight
  • The 24-year-old forward is currently thought to be valued at around £15million 

Sheffield United’s Oli McBurnie is a summer target for Scottish Premiership champions Rangers.

McBurnie looks set to depart Bramall Lane following relegation from the top flight and is thought to be valued at around £15million.

Losing the 24-year-old for that amount would see the Blades take a £5m hit after signing the striker from Swansea City two years ago.

McBurnie, a Rangers supporter, scored just once in 27 appearances for United last season. He will miss Scotland’s European Championship campaign with a fractured metatarsal.

A number of first-team regulars are expected to leave the Yorkshire club as they undergo a reboot following a doomed second year in the Premier League.

Sander Berge is attracting interest, while Norwich City are keeping tabs on full back Jayden Bogle if highly-rated Max Aarons moves away from Carrow Road.

Steven Gerrard – who is looking for attacking reinforcements – will have to pay around £15m
