Plymouth Argyle striker Bim Pepple is attracting interest from Rangers, who have reportedly joined Old Firm rivals Celtic as clubs interested in the Canadian frontman. Four Championship clubs, which include Norwich City, Portsmouth, and Watford, are also monitoring the 23-year-old, alongside League One champions Lincoln City. Further interest is said to come from a series of clubs in the MLS and mainland Europe, and some of these interested clubs are reportedly prepared to triple his current salary.

Plymouth manager Tom Cleverley has admitted that Pepple's contract contains a release clause of an unclear value, which could be activated in the near future. Pepple joined Plymouth Argyle in July 2025 from Luton Town for a fee reported to be an initial £250,000, potentially rising to £650,000. According to Transfermarkt, the uncapped Canadian international has a current market value of €175k.
