Rangers may have an advantage in signing Sheffield Wednesday defender Max Lowe as a free agent due to the influence of Danny Rohl. The Ibrox hierarchy made enquiries for Lowe in January. The former Sheffield Wednesday boss, who wanted the player in the winter transfer window, could potentially convince the defender to move to Ibrox in the coming months. Max Lowe has been unavailable due to an injury in recent weeks, and his contract at Hillsborough expires in June.

According to The Sheffield Star, the Light Blues enquired about Max Lowe's availability early in the window. Lowe's contract expires in the summer, and while a January transfer is noted as unlikely, an agreement at the end of the campaign is possible. Boss Henrik Pedersen said a departure for Lowe before the end of the month could not be ruled out. Pedersen told The Star he is unaware of what will happen but hopes for Lowe to remain, stating that he is very important for them, but the situation is not within his control. Pedersen also stated that the administrator is responsible for the matter and that he has spoken with the administrator regarding a specific offer, about which he was asked for his feelings.

Rangers manager Danny Rohl is interested in working with Max Lowe again, and the club made an enquiry for the Sheffield Wednesday defender earlier in the window. Lowe is currently out with a calf injury and his contract is set to expire in the summer, allowing Rangers to open pre-contract talks. The chances of Lowe leaving this month are considered slim, and it is reported that the player has no immediate desire to move.
