Everton defender Mason Holgate could be recalled from his loan with Southampton and now Rangers, along with two Championship clubs are interested in signing him.
The 27-year-old has gone through periods of good form for the Toffees but Sean Dyche doesn’t seem to trust him and is keen to get him off the books.
Holgate signed for Southampton on a season-long loan in August but has failed to make his mark at St Mary’s. The centre-back has made just four Championship appearances so far.
Jan Bednarek and Taylor Harwood-Bellis are ahead of the Everton outcast in the pecking order and as a result, the Toffees are seriously considering recalling him and loaning him out elsewhere.
In a recent interview, Saints boss Russell Martin refused to rule out him leaving next month.
“He is out of the team because the other guys have played well and that is frustrating for him. I can’t sit here and say he is definitely staying,” Martin said.
“Would we want him to stay? Yes. He is a great teammate, he’s got a great energy around the place and he’s been good on the pitch the last few times.
“However, I also understand that he probably wants to play more minutes and for Everton, it is probably frustrating as well.”
