Daniel Bachmann claims Rangers have made contact over a summer transfer

Dan Bachmann has claimed Rangers have been in contact with his representatives over a summer move.

The keeper has been a key part of Kilmarnock’s superb season that has hauled them back into third place in the Premiership for a Europa League spot.

Bachmann is on loan at Rugby Park from Watford until the end of the season but he has revealed Rangers have enquired about signing him in the summer.

The 27-year-old – who is contracted at Vicarage Road until 2020 – said: "Rangers have made contact with my English agents.

"Of course it is pleasing that people have taken notice of my performances.

"But for now I will focus exclusively on Kilmarnock. 

"From June onwards I will be a Watford player once more, and I want to make my name in the Premier League.

"Right now I am only bothered about helping Kilmarnock achieve their objectives."

German Bundesliga sides Stuttgart and Hannover have also been credited with interest in Bachmann.

The keeper previously played for Stoke, and had spells on loan to Wrexham, Ross County and Bury before joining Watford in 2017.

Rangers currently have three senior keepers on their books – Allan McGregor, Wes Foderingham and Andy Firth.
