Rangers and Wolverhampton Wanderers have withdrawn their interest in a deal for Anthony Patterson. Both clubs were deterred from pursuing a move, with a sum of £7m involved, because they could not compete for the signing until they made a sale.

Rangers have been linked to Sunderland's Anthony Patterson, with Sunderland keen for him to exit this summer. The Daily Record reported that Sunderland may want up to £10 million for Patterson's permanent exit, but wants at least £8 million for the 26-year-old, with other possible add-ons that could take the deal up to £10 million. Rangers and Wrexham are reportedly still considering making an offer for Patterson, though the price tag could deter the two clubs from a move. Sunderland is not interested in loaning Anthony Patterson out and is instead focused on selling him for the asking price.

Former Aberdeen chief executive Keith Wyness told Football Insider that he expects Sunderland goalkeeper Anthony Patterson to move to Rangers this summer. Wyness stated that he expects Rangers will be unable to pay the current £8m asking price. He suggested that Rangers may be able to complete a transfer for an initial £5m plus add-ons, and noted that Patterson also has interest from south of the border. Wyness sees Patterson as the correct person to replace Jack Butland, and feels that a deal at a reduced price will be needed again.

Rangers are searching for a new goalkeeper and have identified Sunderland's English goalkeeper Anthony Patterson, who spent the second half of the season on loan at Millwall, as a target. The Glasgow club has reportedly explored the possibility of a deal for the 26-year-old. Sunderland are willing to sell Patterson this summer as he has a lower priority status at the club, and the club will listen to offers of at least £8 million. This valuation appears to be more than Rangers are willing to pay. Other clubs, including Wolves, Wrexham, and Millwall, are also reportedly interested in the goalkeeper. He has one cap for England's U21 team. His current Transfermarkt market value is €8.00m.
