After being recommended by former Glasgow Rangers hero, Mo Johnston, Nigeria winger Sone Aluko has the option of joining MLS outfit Houston Dynamo this summer.

Houston Dynamo coach Dominic Kinnear is delighted with the Nigeria international and wants him in the team.

''I had a close look at Sone and was impressed. If he is free and available, we'd really like to bring him to Houston.

"Sone is great on the ball. He can take players on and has the ability to change games.

"There will be other clubs looking at Sone but we'll be professional and wait until we get word he's free,'' Kinnear told the Scottish Sun.

Aluko did well for Rangers last season, netting 12 goals in 23 appearances. Houston Dynamo face competition from clubs in Spain and England for the signature of the Super Eagles player.
