Brandon O’Neill is out of contract in December
O’Neill holds an Irish passport and is eligible to play for Republic of Ireland too, although the 23-year-old has represented the Socceroos at youth level.
He’s out of contract in December this year and Rangers are said to be exploring the possibility of making a cut-price move for him in the summer.
O’Neill caught the eye of the Gers scouting staff during the Australian season and the ex-Perth Glory star is rated as one of the best midfielders Down Under.
The set-piece specialist has also been playing for Sydney in the Asian Champions League this season too.
Rangers will have to persuade O’Neill to consider leaving Sydney and he admitted last week that he’s loving his football at the moment.

“We are all at a good place right now and everyone at the club is happy.”
