RANGERS are reportedly considering a swoop for a Belgium Under-21 international to ease their left-back concerns.
Brentford loanee Jayden Meghoma remains Rangers‘ only natural left-back, but Danny Rohl has made the position a priority ahead of the January window opening.
Max Aarons, James Tavernier and Derek Cornelius have been deployed there on occasions this season to fill in for the 19-year-old.
But Rangers are moving quickly to land a permanent replacement for Ridvan Yilmaz and Jefte who departed the club in the summer.
According to Sky Sports, the Light Blues have identified Westerlo defender Tuur Rommens as a potential target.
The full-back is believed to be high on the club’s transfer shortlist as Rohl looks to put his own stamp on the Rangers squad.

Rommens, 22, has been a regular starter for Westerlo in the Belgian Pro League, making 78 appearances over the past two seasons.
He has earned nine caps for Belgium’s Under-21 side and featured against Scotland last year during their qualifying campaign for the Under-21 European Championships.
The left-back came up against current senior Scotland internationals Max Johnston, Lennon Miller and Josh Mulligan, as well as Rangers midfielder Connor Barron.
Rommens currently plays under a former Rangers coach in Belgium, with Issame Charai in charge at Westerlo.
The 22-year-old still has more than two years remaining on his contract, which runs until the summer of 2027.
Meanwhile, Rangers are also considering a shock loan swoop to bring Josh Windass back to Ibrox.
Windass is currently at Wrexham but Rohl is working on a deal to work with him again in Glasgow.
He played under the German at Sheffield Wednesday and thought very highly of the manager.
Speaking recently about the Ibrox boss, Windass said: “He’s top class. The best I’ve worked with, tactically, by a mile. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen, to be honest.”
