Rangers join Jeffers chase

"We are aware of Franny Jeffers,” said 'Gers Boss Alex McLeish. “Every manager the length and breadth of Britain would be as well. If I am convinced that somebody can come and score 20-odd goals a season only then would we make a move.

"Franny Jeffers has a decent record but in the last year or so he has struggled to find his best form so I wouldn't commit myself to any of those names yet. But we are certainly aware of those players - and a big list of other players. There will be money available in the summer - and I will take what I can get."

A fee of around £3m has been mentioned by Arsenal, and it is believe that Everton have a first refusal agreement with Arsenal for Jeffers.
