Question marks over Rangers’ interest in Vuckic

English Championship cracks Bristol City have joined the race for ex-Rangers
“Newcastle Five” loanee Haris Vuckic.

Vuckic has been effectively
deemed surplus at St James’, with unconfirmed reports emerging that new manager
Steve McClaren has told the player he is not part of his plans.

Consequently, the Robins join a
glut of clubs chasing his signature, a group which now appears to exclude
Rangers.

City, Hull, Bolton and Burnley
have been named through the media as being in the hunt for the Slovenian international,
and while he did admit he wanted to stay at Rangers, his first-choice was
always to play for the Newcastle first team in the Premier League.

With no chance of that being with
Newcastle, and
only remote chances of fellow EPL teams joining the queue for him, the next
best thing would be the Championship.

And Mark Warburton has apparently
not joined any concrete pursuit for Vuckic, likely ruling out any chance of his
return to Ibrox, and the 22 year old looks like he will be going to the English
Championship, sooner rather than later.

But never say never.
