# Rangers: Josh Onomah “definitely” on Michael Beale’s transfer list

**[Rangers](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/) manager Michael Beale will have Fulham midfielder Josh Onomah on his list of transfer targets, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke.**

### **The Lowdown: Rangers linked with Rangers**

Earlier this month, it was [reported](https://www.footballinsider247.com/rangers-onomah-sources-deal/) that Beale is interested in signing the midfielder during the upcoming January transfer window.

After [joining](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/josh-onomah/transfers/spieler/243589) the west London club from Tottenham Hotspur back in the 2019 summer transfer window, Onomah has gone on to make [76](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/josh-onomah/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/243589) appearances for Fulham across all competitions, chipping in with five goals and eight assists along the way.

With the January window around the corner, Beale’s apparent interest in the [£30k-per-week](https://fbref.com/en/squads/fd962109/2022-2023/wages/Fulham-Wage-Details) Englishman has been reinforced.

### **The Latest: Onomah on Beale’s radar**

Speaking to [GIVEMESPORT](https://www.givemesport.com/88093153-rangers-transfer-news-premier-league-star-definitely-beale-radar-ibrox), O’Rourke had this to say about Rangers’ and Beale’s reported interest in Onomah:

*“I believe he does like Josh Onomah from Fulham. He was interested in possibly signing him when he was at QPR, so he’s a player that’s definitely on Beale’s radar.”*

### **The Verdict: A risk for Beale?**

With just [14](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/josh-onomah/leistungsdaten/spieler/243589) minutes of action to his name for Fulham this season, it could be assumed that a move to Rangers, where he may have a better chance of playing regularly, could be a tempting prospect for the 25-year-old.

However, despite being [praised](https://twitter.com/GeorgeSessions/status/873869349374885888?s=20&t=MOYa6kxqQ1dRVniiudA6JA) for his “incredible” performances in the past by journalist George Sessions, Onomah’s efforts in the Championship last season didn’t do much to paint him as a suitable signing for Rangers.

For example, despite scoring one goal and providing three assists in his [20](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/170/Archive/England-Fulham) Championship appearances last term, the midfielder only managed to earn himself a rather underwhelming overall performance rating of 6.44/10 from [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/170/Archive/England-Fulham), making him one of the lowest-rated Fulham players to start at least one game.

Regardless of Beale’s apparent fondness for the player, we feel that it could be a risk to see Rangers sign him in January.
