Chelsea 'eye Rangers teenager Billy Gilmour'

Chelsea are reportedly confident of beating a host of clubs to the signature of Rangers teenager Billy Gilmour.

The 15-year-old, who has also been linked with Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Manchester City, is widely expected to leave Rangers at the end of the 2016-17 campaign.

According to The Mirror, it is Chelsea that lead the race for the midfielder, despite interest from a number of top-level clubs.

Gilmour has already trained with the Rangers first team this season, but he has still not committed to a professional contract with the Scottish Premiership outfit.

FIFA rules prohibit any club from making an official move until Gilmour turns 16 on June 11.
