Rangers fans are fuming at the prospect of signing Norwich City midfielder Kenny McLean this summer after the latest update on his move.

Reports claimed the deal remains on the cards as links refuse to go away, with the 32-year-old having just one year remaining on his deal at Carrow Road.

Philippe Clement's side are looking to strengthen their midfield following the departures of Ryan Jack and John Lundstram, with McLean one of their options.

However, fans are less than keen on the deal despite the midfielder's links to the club he supported as a boy, and have made their frustrations known on social media.

This comes after Football Insider revealed on 28 June that McLean could be offered the captaincy at Ibrox should he make the move this summer.

One fan shared an image of a young McLean wearing a Rangers shirt, telling the club to "bring him home", with some warming to the idea.

A circuit boy playing for rangers is something we've missed for long long time. Every great Scots team has had a few sceme boys in the team. Kenny McLean would run through walls for rangers so would his whole family he lived across from my mates cousin in cambuslang they love it https://t.co/Fhbbje6QHB

He'd be a fantastic signing and the more Scots in there the better. I'd also love to see us sign Lewis Morgan if we move Wright on

However, the majority of supporters at Ibrox made their frustrations known, with some labelling the potential deal "worrying" and "bizarre".

Being a Rangers fan should not give you any advantage of signing. Ability, attitude and value for money should all take precedence over that aspect. I'm not seeing any upside to him signing.

Getting rid of a 30 year old Lundstram on 30 grand a week and replacing him with a 32 year old who is currently on 25 grand a week at Norwich seems quite bizarre to me.

If this is the level of our ambition for the season then we should be worried. Lazy signing that will turn sour when a substantial portion of supporters don’t want him.

I just don’t get this at all tbh. He’s past his peak. He wouldn’t be good enough for the Celtic team so we shouldn’t see him as good enough for us. It smacks of desperation.
