Since the turn of the year,Philippe Clement‘s side have reportedly shown an interest in one of the EFL’s most talented left-backs, and a striker who’s pace, movement and relentless endeavour has drawn comparisons to a young Jamie Vardy.
However, Tommy Conway’s contract status is naturally becoming a major source of concern at Ashton Gate if Bristol City hopes to make Conway their latest high-profile sale, following in the footsteps of Alex Scott, Antoine Semenyo, Jonathan Kodjia, Adam Webster, and Lloyd Kelly.
According to Peter O’Rourke, Rangers is only one of several teams on both sides of the border.
keeping tabs on Conway, alongside his Bristol City team-mate Cameron Pring.
In truth, if Conway was to sign a new deal tomorrow, the Scotland Under 21 international would probably end up commanding the sort of fee beyond Rangers’ means. But as long as he’s still due to become a free agent in the summer of 2025, The Gers will remain hopeful of inserting themselves into the battle for a striker who’s already broken the 20-goal tally for league goals before his 22nd birthday.
Rangers like Bristol City striker Tommy Conway
“Talk about Tommy leaving? Liam Manning, the manager of the Robins, tells the Bristol Post that Tommy still has a year left on his contract, so it can’t be solely his decision. But it must also benefit the club if he makes the decision to go. And taking care of this football team will always come first while I’m here.
“We’re making every effort to hold onto him. I believe I’ve made it clear how much I like him, how well he’s doing, and my opinions on him. He’s in the ideal position for his career, where he will receive coaching, be stretched, and have possibilities, as I mentioned the other day.
“And I believe that occasionally players may try to jump too soon.”
Bristol City has proven throughout the years to be a club that knows when to sell, particularly from the player’s point of view, as well as a great cultivator of emerging talent. Brownhill, Kelly, Scott, and Semenyo all moved on for large sums of money and did so with relative ease.
Under Manning, Conway has started 26 league games this season. In January, Conway eliminated West Ham from the FA Cup in a giant-killing performance. It is hard to imagine that starts will be as easy to come by at Rangers if Cyriel Dessers and Danilo both stay, assuming Clement intends to persist with his lone-striker system.
