Rangers join transfer race with La Liga sides for forgotten Arsenal man

According to journalist Dominik Schneider, Rangers have joined the race with Real Valladolid - a club he spent last season on loan at - and Sevilla for Arsenal keeper Hein. With his contract expiring next summer, the Gunners have a decision to make on the 23-year-old.

Arsenal edged out Manchester United and Juventus to sign the teenager back in 2018 but to this day he has made one first-team appearance for the club. His spell at Valladolid brought him much-needed game time, and with him being at best third-choice at Arsenal, it seems an exit is inevitable.

Estonian international Hein, who made his Arsenal debut in November 2022 in a 3-1 defeat to Brighton in the Carabao Cup, also had a brief loan stint at Reading in the 2021/22 season in the Championship.

It remains to be seen if the 6ft 4in Estonian Hein - who signed from Nomme United - will join any of Rangers, Valladolid, or Sevilla, or whether he will run down his Arsenal contract as a backup keeper.
