26 December 2025 15:21, UK <\/p>\n<p>Josh Windass may have already made his feelings clear regarding a potential return to Rangers in the January transfer window. <\/p>\n<p>The 31-year-old already has six goals to his name for Wrexham in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/championship\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Championship<\/a> this term, but he could be ready to move on again in next month\u2019s window. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/rangers-fans-are-raging-at-latest-danny-rohl-transfer-news-shambolic-not-fit-for-ibrox\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rangers are now being linked with Windass on a loan deal<\/a>, as they bid to add the firepower that they need to chase down <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/hearts\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hearts<\/a> at the top of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/scottish-premiership\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Premiership<\/a> table. <\/p>\n<p>The former Ibrox star previously played under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/danny-rohl\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Danny Rohl<\/a> during his time at Sheffield Wednesday, and the German is now eyeing a renewal of that relationship.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"732\" loading=\"lazy\"

ImagoJosh Windass praised Rangers in the summer with return on the cards<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/rangers-fans-are-raging-at-latest-danny-rohl-transfer-news-shambolic-not-fit-for-ibrox\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rangers fans were fuming when the links with Windass<\/a> first emerged, and it is certainly a move that would raise eyebrows across the Premiership if a deal is ultimately struck. <\/p>\n<p>Rohl has already outlined his former star as a \u201ctop target\u201d for the January window, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thescottishsun.co.uk\/sport\/15722192\/rangers-shock-bid-josh-windass-loan-transfer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Scottish Sun<\/a>, with a sensational return potentially on the cards.<\/p>\n<p>The attacker notched 19 league goal involvements for the Glasgow giants back in the 2017-18 campaign, but promptly left to join Wigan Athletic the following year, and hasn\u2019t returned to Scottish football since. <\/p>\n<p>MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n<p>However, a return to Ibrox was also a possibility at one stage last summer, and that prompted the Englishman to show his hand somewhat in terms of his desire to move back to his former club.<\/p>\n<p>Windass praised <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/rangers\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rangers<\/a> during an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/6716178\/2025\/10\/17\/josh-windass-interview-wrexham-transfer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">The Athletic<\/a>, where he suggested that he had \u201csome really good times there\u201d and also branded it as a \u201cgreat club.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The forward cited that the timing was wrong to move back north of the border on that occasion, but with his former boss Rohl now at the helm, the situation could be different this winter. <\/p>\n<p>Windass\u2019 record under Danny Rohl<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/what-danny-rohl-has-already-said-about-josh-windass-amid-rangers-transfer-latest\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Windass was a crucial player for Rohl<\/a> during their time together at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/sheffield-wednesday\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sheffield Wednesday<\/a>, and he quickly became one of the first names on the teamsheet for the young boss.<\/p>\n<p>The South Yorkshire outfit were forced to work under difficult circumstances due to their issues off the pitch, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/josh-windass\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Windass<\/a> stepped up as one of their central figures during Rohl\u2019s tenure. <\/p>\n<p>He netted 13 league goals for the Owls in the 2024-25 campaign, his highest tally in English football since the 2015-16 season when he was in League Two with Accrington Stanley. <\/p>\n<p>Windass played 66 times for Wednesday under Rohl, notching 27 goal contributions during that period. <\/p>\n<p>Only six players featured more frequently during Rohl\u2019s tenure, and as a result, it is no surprise that he is targeting a reunion with a player that he trusts deeply from his previous job.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Credit: Imago) Fri 26
