Rangers reportedly set to step up pursuit of Millwall striker

Millwall striker Zak Lovelace is reportedly wanted by Rangers as they are set to accelerate their interest in him.

The Lions teenage prospect has been offered a professional contract by the Lions.

It has been claimed that Millwall would be able to generate more than £1million in compensation if he was to sign for another English club.

Daily Record Sport are reporting that the Ibrox outfit are keen on striking a deal with the 16-year-old quickly.

They add that if Lovelace was to move across the border the Lions would receive less than £200,000 in compensation.

Lovelace made his first senior appearance for Millwall in their 1-0 victory against Coventry back in December.

At the time Lovelace was 15-years-old and that made him the second youngest player to ever feature for Millwall in a senior match.

The youngest was Moses Ashikodi, who featured against Brighton in February 2003. He was 100 days younger than Lovelace.
