Rangers boss Mark Warburton is reportedly considering a move for former Everton midfielder Leon Osman.

Leon Osman has reportedly emerged as a possible target for Rangers in the January transfer window.

After Joey Barton's controversial stay at Ibrox came to an end, Rangers are a player short in midfield, but it appears that boss Mark Warburton has identified a potential new arrival.

According to the Scottish Sun, Rangers look likely to make the most of Osman's availability by entering talks with the 35-year-old in January.

Osman has been without a club since his 16-season association with Everton came to an end in the summer but after a break from playing, he is expected to resume his career in the near future.

He scored 57 goals in 433 appearances during his time on Merseyside.
