Rangers could sign Barker – Have Kent’s chances of joining Leeds increased?

A Liverpool exit would be beneficial to Ryan Kent, even though having him in the squad would be no bad thing.

According to Sky Sports, Rangers are set to sign Man City winger Brandon Barker on deadline day.

Should that move come to fruition, it increases Kent’s chances of joining Leeds United, who have been linked with him all summer.

A move to the Championship would be beneficial for Kent, as he looks to build on last season’s outstanding performances for Rangers.

England’s second tier is still superior to the Scottish Premiership in terms of quality, so it will be an even greater challenge for the wide man.

Leeds play with freedom, fluidity and high tempo, using the wings efficiently, so if Kent does head to Elland Road he could flourish.

Marcelo Bielsa can take the 22-year-old to the next level.

It is surprising that Kent will be allowed to leave Liverpool, though, whether on loan or permanently, due to the fact that Sadio Mane has no real recognised understudy.

There is no denying that Kent will have limited game time at Anfield, but if one of the ruthless front-three picks up an injury, his pace and flair would not be a bad option for Jurgen Klopp.
