Rangers and Leeds want Ryan Kent on loan

Leeds United and Rangers are set to battle to sign Liverpool winger Ryan Kent on loan this summer, according to Neil Jones of Goal.

Kent, who spent time on loan at both Freiburg and Bristol City last season, is likely to go out on loan again as Liverpool want him to get more game time under his belt.

Both Leeds and Rangers are interested in him, although both are wary of completing a deal as Liverpool will insist that he must play regularly and if he doesn’t, the club who takes him will have to pay an extra fee.

Kent started just six times for Bristol City after joing them in January and as such, the Robins had to pay the Reds £500,000.

Steven Gerrard’s relationship with Liverpool could see Rangers become an attractive option for any young Reds players, but the chase to play regularly in the Championship could appeal to Kent, who is yet to really make a mark at Anfield.
