The Rangers Review journalist Jonny McFarlane has revealed a big transfer twist on Glasgow Rangers' reported interest in Israeli starlet Oscar Gloukh.

The Lowdown: Scouts sent

Speaking on the Heart & Hand podcast's The Transfer Show (via Rangers News), podcaster and Gers supporter Andy Barnett, who is based in Israel, claimed that scouts from the club were 'looking' at Gloukh play for Israel's U19s in their 4-2 win over Austria a couple of weeks ago.

Gloukh also played in the UEFA Euro U19 final for Israel against England on Friday night, and scored a brilliant opening goal.

He plays his club football at Maccabi Tel Aviv, where he scored three goals in ten games over all competitions last season (Transfermarkt).

The Latest: 'Non-starter'

Taking to Twitter, McFarlane has now revealed that Giovanni van Bronckhorst's team have 'no interest whatsoever' in brining Gloukh to Ibrox this summer.

He added: "I'm told of the thousands of potential targets Rangers have in their scouting database, the player hasn’t been considered. It’s a complete non-starter. Next!"

The Verdict: Shame

It would be a shame for the Light Blues to miss out on such an upcoming talent in Gloukh.

Respected outlet ESPN (via The Daily Record) claim that he is 'technically brilliant' and a 'brilliant dribbler' with an 'exquisite touch', even going as far as to say that he is 'unplayable' at times.

Journalist and podcaster Sam Tighe gets a 'whiff of Ozil' about his creative style, likening the 18-year-old to the 2014 FIFA World Cup winner and former German Player of the Year (Transfermarkt).

Nonetheless, it seems as if the Teddy Bears in fact do not hold an interest in Gloukh, although that is not to say that they could not come in for him later in the window.
