Scott Wright sees way out of Rangers transfer has emerged as Sheffield Wednesday make their pitch for signings

Rangers winger Scott Wright is a target for Championship side Sheffield Wednesday.

Mailsport understands the Hillsborough club have already registered their interest in the 26-year-old Ibrox star, who has a year left on his Gers contract. Wednesday boss Danny Rohl is an admirer of Wright and wants to take him to Yorkshire for a game in England’s second tier.




The former Aberdeen man signed for Rangers in 2021 and started in the Europa League final against Eintracht Frankfurt two years ago. But he has been a peripheral figure under Philippe Clement, who is planning wholesale changes at Ibrox this summer. The Belgian has already added five new players to the ranks, with more on the way, meaning Wright could be overtaken. With 12 months left on his current contract, he is a player Rangers are willing to listen to offers for this summer. The Owls hope to negotiate a deal for Wright ahead of the new campaign.

Clement spoke on Saturday and gave his view on transfers and more, the Belgian said: “We had five players leaving the club at the end of their contracts and we didn’t get any money. We lost five players, but for At the moment it was easier to attract the young players, but there will also be experience in the building and we need a good balance in the team of both.

“It was important to find these young talents and I think we have found some exciting talents for the future of this club. They are ready to play some minutes at the beginning, but certainly for the next two years.”

On the benefit of his first pre-season, he added: “We haven’t really had time to train together. We’ve had a lot of games so it’s always exciting. It’s exciting to bring in new players and make them learn all the new principles we want them to play with and without the ball – every little detail.

“So it’s a new cycle. It’s going to be really challenging for a lot of players – more than I normally want – but it’s the only way because of the situation with us. We’re all very motivated – the players and the staff all there for the start season, but we will need not eleven players, but a team that plays directly in nine top-flight games in the first four weeks of the season.”
