Mark Warburton is interested in bringing the veteran to Ibrox as he looks to strengthen the Rangers defence.

Lescott has 26 caps for England and was once the subject of a £22 million transfer when he moved from Everton to Manchester City.

Another ex-English Premier League centre back, Phillipe Senderos, is currently on trial with the club, while strike Joe Garner is close to arriving from Preston after a fee was agreed in principle.
