RANGERS winger Barrie McKay is set to clinch a deal with Nottingham Forest.
SportTimes revealed on Monday that the winger was attracting interest from former boss Mark Warburton and Championship rivals Cardiff City.
And it is Warburton who has won the race to sign the 22-year-old this summer.
McKay has fallen out of favour at Ibrox in recent weeks and was told to train with the Light Blues’ Under-20s by manager Pedro Caixinha.
The forward turned down a new contract offer earlier this year and Rangers have now decided to cash in rather than let him potentially agree a Bosman switch in January.
Boss Caixinha refused to discuss McKay’s situation ahead of the Europa League clash with Progres Niederkorn tonight.
And the Scotland international is now on the brink of a move to the City Ground to be reunited with Warburton and assistant David Weir.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
