The midfielder, who Light Blues player Liam Kelly called “brilliant,” was also watched by Celtic, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Aston Villa [The National].

The Gers haven’t made many wise choices in the last few years, which has led to a lot of discontent among fans and in the boardroom.
The choice to bring Connor Barron to the team after his Aberdeen contract expired has been viewed as a good one.
As a Scottish national, the 22-year-old has shown himself to be a great addition and is the kind of player that supporters would like to see more of.
Because of Miller’s incredible start to the season, everyone at Ibrox is supporting the club’s efforts to sign him from Motherwell.
Supporters and former players like Barry Ferguson have pushed the Light Blues to sign the Scotland youth international.
Considering the number of clubs that have expressed interest in the young player, this would undoubtedly be a triumph for the Ibrox club.
Despite his advanced age, Koppen’s skill is undeniable, and if he can make this signing after being appointed technical director, he might win over many supporters.
