KEVIN KYLE have urged Rangers to look to Hibs winger Martin Boyle, if they decide to sell Ryan Kent to Leeds.
Marcelo Bielsa's newly promoted Premier League side are keen to bring the former Liverpool man to Elland Road, but it is understood that Kent is not keen on a move back down south.
However, if a deal was to be agreed, former Ibrox striker Kyle reckons Steven Gerrard should target Easter Road star Martin Boyle as a possible replacement.
Speaking on Open Goal, he said: "What do you want in a winger? You want somebody to get at the full-backs.
"Martin Boyle does that week in, week out, so why not? I think he would be a very cheap replacement and I think we would get just as much quality. People might disagree with that.
"I’m not saying he’s at the same level (as Kent). What I’m saying is, we’re in the Scottish game.
"If Martin Boyle is ripping it up for Hibs against most teams, week in, week out, in the Premiership playing with Rangers, Martin Boyle should be able to do the same.
"Maybe with a bit more quality because he’s surrounded by a bit more quality.
"In terms of the league he’s in, Martin Boyle would be able to a job for any of the teams, I would think.”
