Lille president Gerard Lopez has confirmed talked with Alfredo Morelos over a move to the Ligue 1 side.
With just a few days until Rangers get their 2020/21 campaign underway, the Colombian could be set to leave.
Lopez told French media: “As for Morelos, it’s true he’s a player who interests us. It’s also true that he’s interested in LOSC. But we’re in the middle of a discussion, nothing is done.”
Celtic close in on double signing
Celtic are set to sign West Ham forward Albian Ajeti on loan, report the Guardian.
The Swiss international has struggled at the Hammers since joining from Basel for £8m.
It is understood Celtic will have the option to make the deal permanent for £5m.
Neil Lennon is also closing in on goalkeeper Vasilios Barkas.

The right-back is a free agent having left Kilmarnock on freedom of contract after turning down a new deal.
O’Donnell had previously played in England with Luton Town.
He told the Daily Record: “I feel a wee bit like I have unfinished business in England – I didn’t feel I did myself as much justice as I should have done. I would love to see if I was good enough to play in the Championship.”
