Rangers have agreed a three-year contract with Everton rising star Cameron Bell, Football Insider understands.

This site exclusively revealed on Monday (27 June) that the Glasgow giants were in advanced talks to lure the defender, 16, back to his native Scotland in this summer's window.

Now Ibrox sources have told Football Insider that a full agreement is in place for Bell to sign for Rangers and a deal is set to be announced soon.

Rangers

It comes after Rangers confirmed on Thursday (30 July) they have signed 15-year-old Bailey Rice from Motherwell, news of which was also broken by Football Insider on Wednesday.

The club have also finalised the capture of Millwall striker Zak Lovelace behind the scenes and he is set to be one of three new teenager arrivals.

Bell is poised to make it a hat-trick after agreeing to accept Rangers' contract offer.

Like Lovelace, Bell would be able to sign professional terms with Rangers, with Scottish FA rules allowing them to do so at the age of 16, a year earlier than in England.

Bell turned 16 in January of this year and is so highly rated he has been capped by Scotland at Under-17 level.

He spent last season in the Everton Under-18s and is regarded as a player capable of playing senior international football in the future.

Rangers
