Brazilian club Palmeiras have opened talks with Rangers<\/a> over a potential deal for Jefte – according to reports.<\/p>\n

The wing-back has played in three of Gers competitive matches so far this season and has made back to back starts against Dundee in the Premiership and Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But Brazilian transfer guru Andre Hernan claims that talks are ongoing to bring the 21-year-old back to his homeland.<\/p>\n

He claims that Palmeiras chiefs are determined to land the Jefte<\/a>, who was signed for Gers from Fluminense by Phillippe Clement last summer after catching the eye in a loan spell in Cyprus with APOEL.<\/p>\n

Hernan adds that landing Jefte could cost the Brazilian club as much as \u20ac6million (\u00a35.1million), with the player still under contract at Ibrox until June 2028.<\/p>\n

Jefte made 55 appearances in all competitions for Rangers last season, scoring once.<\/p>\n

Fellow left back Ridvan Yilmaz<\/a> has also been heavily linked with an exit this summer with Besiktas said to be keen on re-signing the Turkey international.<\/p>\n

Gers boss Russell Martin recently challenged the defender to up his levels in order to hold down the left back spot in his new-look team.<\/p>\n

He said: “Jefte has a lot of potential and some really good attributes.<\/p>\n

“But he knows what we think on where we need him to improve and really help us win games.”<\/p>\n
