Southampton goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has been urged to complete a blockbuster move to Rangers this summer.
The England international is expected to leave St Mary’s following their relegation back to the Championship and he has been linked with a number of clubs amid his uncertain future with the Saints.

Galatasaray are interested in signing the England international, as per The Times, while Rangers have also been touted to pursue a deal this summer.
Former Aston Villa striker Darren Bent believes Ramsdale has an easy choice between those two clubs.
He told talkSPORT: “If he leaves here and goes to one of those two clubs... I mean first of all, Galatasaray, with their fanbase, he ain't getting away from nothing over there.
“And even Rangers, their fans, I remember having a conversation with [Jermain] Defoe about how important it is up there, playing for that football club.
“But he just needs to get back playing now, back in the top level of football, get back playing again.”
When asked if it would be a waste to see Ramsdale leave the Premier League to join Rangers, Bent replied: “No, because it's a huge football club.
“What he won't want to do is go to a side that could go down again, he doesn't want that again.
“Going to Rangers, that would be incredible for him, what a move that would be for him.”
Aaron Ramsdale to join Rangers?
Ramsdale, who was a fan favourite during his three-year spell at Arsenal, made 32 appearances across all competitions for Southampton last season, keeping four clean sheets, and his Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) currently stands at €19.5 million.
A major factor behind Rangers’ interest in Ramsdale is the fact that Russell Martin was recently appointed as the new manager at Ibrox. He was in charge of Southampton when Ramsdale joined the club last summer and the ex-Arsenal star admitted that Martin was a key reason why he opted to move to St Mary’s.
In addition to the 27-year-old, Rangers have also been heavily linked with Leicester City defender Conor Coady and a move appears to be on the cards as Martin looks to sign several reinforcements ahead of his debut campaign in charge.
