Gerrard nears major coup with Rangers closing in on Leeds, Newcastle target

Gerrard nears major coup with Rangers closing in on Leeds, Newcastle target

A Championship star on the radars of six Premier League clubs including Newcastle United and Leeds United is in line to snub all and sign for Rangers, TEAMtalk can reveal.

Gerrard is one of a number of names linked with the Newcastle managerial position. Steve Bruce’s days at the helm appear numbered, and the ex-Liverpool legend has been touted as an ideal candidate to lead the Magpies’ new project forward.

But for the time being, Gerrard remains in Glasgow. And while he is north of the border, his focus will remain solely on the task at hand with Rangers.

As such, TEAMtalk understands Rangers are confident of finalising a deal for Blackburn Rovers ace Joe Rothwell.
