Pringle Linked With Rangers - Ipswich Town News

Blues loanee Ben Pringle is reportedly a target of Rangers ahead of their return to the Scottish Premiership.

According to the Daily Express Pringle is considering the potential switch and will make a decision on his future after Town’s final game of the season at Derby on Saturday.

The 26-year-old has been on loan with the Blues from Fulham since February and has made nine starts and one sub appearance, scoring two goals.

Blues boss Mick McCarthy has made no comment on whether he plans to offer Pringle the chance to stay at Portman Road, however, the midfielder has either been an unused sub or left out of the 18 for the last three games for which he has been eligible.

Newcastle-born Pringle has another year left on the Cottagers contract he penned last summer after turning down a deal at Rotherham, but seems likely to move on having been out of manager Slavisa Jokanovic’s plans.

"Rangers boss Mark Warburton is understood to be a long-term admirer having previously tried to sign him during the summer of 2014 when in charge at Brentford.
