Glasgow Rangers boss Steven Gerrard is keen to bring Alex Gilliead to the Ibrox club in the summer transfer window.
The 22-year-old has been attracting interest from Championship and League One teams from England, and the Gers will have to compete with them for his signature.
Gilliead’s contract at St James’ Park has expired, and Rangers are showing keen interest in signing him.
Newcastle have failed to agree to a new deal with the winger who spent last season on loan at Bradford City.
