Ipswich Town are pushing ahead with a move for Rangers defender George Edmundson.

The defender was the subject of several offers from lower league clubs in England earlier in the transfer window.

He spent last season on loan with Derby County in the Championship, helping them avoid relegation on the last day of the term.

According to the Daily Record, League One outfit Ipswich are the most likely to secure his signature in the coming weeks.

Derby wanted to sign him permanently, while Peterborough United also have an interest.

Their bids were rejected, but it appears Ipswich may have offered a fee that is agreeable to Steven Gerrard's Rangers.
