Rangers could still do with adding to their left-back ranks and are now being linked with AS Roma's Anass Salah-Eddine.

The Ibrox club signed Jayden Meghoma on loan from Brentford on Sunday as they look to address that area of the park, with Jefte on his way to Palmeiras and Ridvan Yilmaz also expected to leave.

Youngster Robbie Fraser also joined Dunfermline on a permanent deal and Meghoma will need some competition.

Rangers previously had an interest in Salah-Eddine last year but he made his loan move to FC Twente permanent.

However, he then completed a switch to Roma in January but has only appeared three times for them.

Il Messaggero report that they are monitoring him again while Spanish side Elche have also been credited with an interest.

The Serie A giants paid €8.5m plus a further €2m in potential add-ons in January but the 23-year-old has failed to impress.

Reports suggest manager Gian Piero Gasperini has told him to find a new club and that could work in Russell Martin's favour. Roma are said to want a permanent deal or a loan with an option to buy.
