Overview
- Former Scotland striker Paul Dickov, speaking in reports published Wednesday, urged a move back to Rangers to help Nathan Patterson reignite his career.
- Patterson has started three Premier League matches this season and logged limited minutes after a ruptured hamstring in April 2024 stalled his progress.
- He has about 12 months left on his Everton contract, and the club must choose whether to sell this summer or risk losing him for free next year.
- Recent windows showed real interest as a January loan to Sevilla collapsed and a deadline-day switch to Genoa was described as close by local reporting.
- Rangers now need a right-back with Tavernier set to leave, while Patterson has said he will discuss his future with David Moyes as he seeks games to strengthen his Scotland 2026 World Cup case.
