Exclusive: Rangers and Wolves in talks to sign Sebastian Lochhead
Wolves, Fulham, Burnley, Norwich, and Rangers are in talks to sign Dundee’s teenage sensation Sebastian Lochhead, sources have told Football Insider.
Lochhead, 16, has been on the bench for Dundee’s first team this season, and the centre-back is regarded as one of the best young talents to emerge in Scotland in recent years.
A number of clubs, including Wolves, Fulham, Burnley, Norwich, and Rangers have contacted Dundee about Lochhead and discussions are ongoing as they try to win the race for his signature.
Each club regards Lochhead as a potential future star and are keen to tie him down to his first professional contract once he turns 17.
Rangers battling for Sebastian Lochhead signature
Lochhead is yet to make a senior appearance for Dundee FC but has featured twice for their reserve side and has been on the bench for all three of the club’s games so far this season.
Dundee ended last season in sixth but lost four of their last five games of the campaign in Scotland’s Championship Group.
Rangers could secure one of Scotland’s best young talents in Lochhead as they seek to loosen Celtic’s iron grip on the Scottish Premier League title.
One player who has been linked with a move away from the Ibrox is Rabbi Matondo.
Football Insider revealed (August 20) that Leeds United are set to step up their interest in Rangers winger Rabbi Matondo with the club set to lose out on Jonathan Rowe.
