Rangers are interested in signing Brighton's Jamie Murphy on a permanent deal, according to Sky sources.

The Ibrox side are keen to land the former Motherwell and Sheffield United winger and are in discussions with the Premier League outfit, but have yet to agree a fee.

Murphy made 40 appearances last season as Brighton gained promotion from the Sky Bet Championship but has featured in just four league games this campaign.

The 28-year-old started his career at Motherwell before moving to Bramall Lane in 2013. He joined Brighton in August 2015 and scored six goals in his first season with the club.
