Rangers' 19-year-old winger Glenn Middleton has been linked as a potential loan signing for Hull City by the Evening Times.

The teenager, who has won over 35 caps for Scotland's youth sides and is currently part of their under-21s squad, made 27 appearances in all competitions last season for Steven Gerrard's side, scoring five goals.

Middleton played 10 times for Gerrard's side in the Europa League last season, scoring in their 4-3 defeat to Spartak Moscow.

According to the Evening Times, Middleton will be allowed to go out on loan this season, with the Tigers being linked alongside head coach Grant McCann's former side Doncaster Rovers and their League One rivals Coventry City.

Yesterday, it was reported that City are close to signing Everton winger Josh Bowler on loan for the duration of next season, but should that fail to go through, a deal for Middleton would make sense.

Jarrod Bowen and Kamil Grosicki, City's star performers during the 2018-19 campaign have both been linked with exits in recent weeks, and should either or both exit, City will need more options out wide, with David Milinkovic and Jon Toral their only other alternatives, who both struggled for minutes last season.

Tyler Hamilton and Ahmed Salam from City's under-23s have both been with the first-team at their training camp in Marbella and both featured for 45 minutes during Tuesday's 2-2 draw with Leyton Orient.
