QPR’s Lyndon Dykes has been tipped as a potential target for former boss Michael Beale at Rangers in January if he decides to sign a striker. Reporter Pete O’Rourke has told This is Futbol: “Rangers possibly could be in the market for a new striker and especially if Alfredo Morelos was to leave the club as well so I’m sure Lyndon Dykes is somebody that would definitely be on the radar for Rangers if they do need to bring in a striker.”

Football Insider report Beale tried to sign Fulham midfielder Josh Onomah for the Hoops in the last summer transfer window and now wants to lure him to Ibrox. The former Tottenham Hotspur man has slipped down the pecking order at Craven Cottage.
