Glasgow Rangers icon Ally McCoist has named one player that he would love to see the Light Blues sign in the summer transfer window...
What's the talk?
The former Ibrox frontman has said that Dele Alli, who joined Everton in a deal worth up to £40m in January, would be a good signing for the Premiership club amid reports linking him with a move to Turkey.
Speaking on the talkSPORT breakfast show [August 17, 6:23am], the 59-year-old said: “Would I take him at Rangers? All day man. All day. Yeah. I do, I really do [think he’d do a good job]. I’d take him all day man.
“He’s completely and utterly lost his way. It’s not easy, don’t think for a minute it’s easy. You look at the players that have come to Rangers beforehand, I’m not saying they’ve struggled but they’ve not been as big a success as people would have thought. And Celtic.
“It’s a difficult place to play. But if you do play there, it’s a fantastic place to play."
Paul Gascoigne 2.0
Besiktas have reportedly agreed a deal with Everton for the England international and they are now waiting on a decision from the player.
Rangers should now act on McCoist's suggestion and Alli's indecisiveness over a move to Turkey by attempting to convince him to come to Scotland, as he could be Paul Gascoigne 2.0 for the Gers.
In fact, Barcelona manager Xavi - whilst he was still playing - once compared Alli to Gascoigne, with the obvious Tottenham, England and positional links.
The mercurial attacking midfielder played 74 league matches for the Light Blues during the 1990s and smashed in 30 goals, whilst also scoring nine times in 28 cup outings.
He was capable of making a huge impact in the final third whilst playing as a number 10 and Alli has the potential to do the same.
Former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino previously compared him to the late Diego Maradona, saying: "You smell Maradona's energy, his charisma is amazing.
