Rangers defender Matt Polster is poised to join New England Revolution, Herald and Times Sport understands.

The American right-back has struggled to force his way into the Ibrox first-team with captain James Tavernier ahead of him in the pecking order.

It is believed a six-figure sum has been agreed between the two clubs with Polster ready to complete the deal.

Polster, 27, made his Rangers debut against Hearts at Tynecastle last April in a 3-1 victory but has only managed nine appearances since, with just six of those games in the Scottish Premiership.

His contract at Ibrox is scheduled to run until summer of 2021 but Gers seem keen on cashing in on the player, who counts Chicago Fire among his former clubs.
