Rangers have agreed a fee with Oldham for talented young defender George Edmundson, Sky Sports News understands.

The 21-year-old handed in a transfer request last month after the League Two club rejected a bid from the Ibrox side believed to be in excess of £500,000.

Edmundson turned down the offer a long-term contract at Oldham after being named the club's Player of the Year for the 2018/19 campaign.

He was also named in the EFL League Two Team of the Year and has been courted by a number of Sky Bet Championship clubs.
