Rangers have made Heerenveen an offer for Joey Veerman, according to a report in the Netherlands.
The Eredivisie star is a man in-demand this summer and it's stated his club already have a bid on the table from Serie A outfit Hellas Verona.
Veerman this week spoke out on his discontent with the situation, insisting Heerenveen's asking price is too high.
De Telegraaf report Rangers have offered £3.85million (€4.5m) for the 22-year-old midfielder.
The Dutch newspaper claim Verona's proposal is higher at almost £5m.
It's stated Veerman must decide whether he would prefer to link up with Steven Gerrard at the Premiership champions or join the Italians, after which Heerenveen would be open to negotiating a fee.
However, the club could demand almost £10m and that's left the player frustrated.
"I think the Italians have made a very reasonable offer, but when I hear what Heerenveen is asking, it can sometimes be a very difficult story," Veerman told Voetbal International last week. “Ten to twelve million euros, I think that's crazy.
"After a corona year with empty stadiums, the money is pretty much gone everywhere. I honestly don't think this makes any sense."
