Reported boost for Rangers in chase for in-demand 29-year-old

Steven Gerrard’s Rangers, Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest have reportedly received a boost in their quest to sign Lyle Taylor from Charlton Athletic in the January transfer window.

According to Sky Sports, Rangers, Wednesday, Swansea City and West Brom want to secure the services of Taylor this month.

TEAMtalk has claimed that Nottingham Forest and Norwich City are interested in the 29-year-old Montserrat international striker.

London News Online has reported that East Street Investments, who are running Championship club Taylor, have decided to withdraw their contract offer to the striker and will consider any bids to sell him this month.

Good signing?

Taylor has made nine starts and four substitute appearances in the Championship for Charlton so far this season, scoring seven goals and providing one assist in the process, according to WhoScored.

The striker has a good record in the lower leagues in England, and he would be a good signing for Rangers in the January transfer window, especially in the short term, with Gerrard’s team aiming to win the Scottish Premiership title this season.
