Rangers are reportedly targeting a reunion with Brentford's dual-national defender, Jayden Meghoma. Meghoma is back at the Gtech Community Stadium after spending last season on loan at the Light Blues, where he registered seven goal involvements in 44 appearances across all competitions. According to Sky Sports UK, Rangers are assessing various targets as they look to strengthen the left-back position, with the Brentford defender among the options under consideration. Tuur Rommens is currently the only recognised left-back available to Rangers manager Derek McInnes. Born in England, Meghoma has not ruled out representing the Super Eagles in the future. Speaking to Brentford's official website, he said Nigeria's progress on the international stage had made him consider representing the three-time African champions. However, he remains committed to his country of birth for now and has represented England's Young Lions at U15, U16, U17, U18, U19 and U20 levels. He could earn his first England U21 cap in the forthcoming season. Before joining Brentford on deadline day of the 2024 summer transfer window, Meghoma played for the academy teams of Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton. The 20-year-old has made four first-team appearances for the Bees, including his Premier League debut against Chelsea in December 2024. Ifeanyi Emmanuel
