Billy Gilmour would consider a move away from Brighton, with Rangers as a potential loan destination.
That's according to popular radio pundit Mark Wilson.
The Scotland international joined the south-coast side in the summer on transfer deadline day.
Things haven't gone to plan for the 21-year-old, though, with Graham Potter - the man who brought him to the Seagulls - moving in the opposite direction shortly after he joined.
Roberto De Zerbi was the man chosen to become the new Brighton boss.
And since then Gilmour has hardly had a look-in. He's made just five appearances in total, with four of those as late substitutes.
It would appear that Gilmour is already out of the picture under the Italian.
One caller on Clyde 1 Superscoreboard tonight suggested that the Ayrshire lad would be a good fit for Michael Beale at Rangers.
Wilson reckons he could seek a fresh challenge even although he's hardly featured at Brighton.
However, he did state that Gilmour's wage demands could be a major stumbling block.
He said: "Listen, he’s someone with exceptional talent who wants to play. He is finding it difficult at the minute and he’s got to find a home that he can play 30, 40, 50 games without long breaks in his career.
“He is at a stage now, but he’s at a crossroads. If there was some sort of miracle that Rangers could entice him up to Scotland, I think he would flourish up here.
“I think he may find it easy to take the ball in tight positions, but the wage he might demand could be out of Rangers reach.”
