Rangers 'considering' surprise move to bring Josh Windass back to Ibrox

Rangers are reportedly considering a move to bring Josh Windass back to the club. 

The attacker currently plies his trade with Sheffield Wednesday in the English Championship. 

Windass netted 13 goals and assisted a further six in 47 appearances for his side last season. 

Although he signed a contract extension over the summer, the Englishman could be on the move, with Rangers 'considering' a move for the 31-year-old, claims The Star. There is also said to be interest from Wrexham.

Windass played 73 times during a two-year spell at Ibrox between 2016 and 2018, scoring 19 goals. 

He was linked with a surprising move to Brazilian giants Santos in January of this year: "I had a call off a number I didn't know, a foreign number," Windass told Open Goal in May. 

"I rang it back and I texted it saying 'Who is this?'. He said, 'It's Pedro [Caixinha], can you give us a ring?'

"So I rang it, and he was like 'Big Josh, do you want to come and play for me again?'. I said, 'If you pay me, yeah, I will'. 

"And then they put a bid in to Sheffield Wednesday and it got turned down straight away, so I couldn't do anything about it.

"It never got that far. They put in an offer, it got knocked back. I spoke to Sheffield Wednesday and they said, 'You're not leaving, you're staying until the end of the season no matter what'."
