Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


09 Aug 2018 15:32:32
Apparently rangers have set a 7M asking price for Tav according to reports.



09 Aug 2018 16:25:39
About time we put a valuation on our players that is enough to frighten off or come back with the requisite offer.

Sick of us being financially disadvantaged over both good and bad players.



09 Aug 2018 17:15:01
All this carry on just better not affect the team to nyt we need to get a right good result 3,4 nil and let's get more players in to in the strikeing department.



09 Aug 2018 17:36:55
3 or 4? They’ve been in the champions league recently, they’re no mugs. Much harder game than ufa or progres will be.



09 Aug 2018 17:54:40
As long as we win I don't care I know these guys are a Champions League outfit and are probably slightly better than Osijek aswell.



09 Aug 2018 17:59:50
3 or 4 nil get real get a win tonight without conceding an away goal would be a great result.



09 Aug 2018 18:33:02
Let’s just calm down and stop getting ahead of ourselves. If we don’t concede I’ll be happy. Even 0-0 is a good result to take to their place.



09 Aug 2018 19:03:35
I'd be thrilled with a 1 nil win and nil nil draw in the 2nd leg, maribor aren't world class but they're a solid tough team with champions league experience.

It's Europe, it doesn't matter how we win or by how much as long as we get through, the farther we go the more money we get which means the better our team gets in January and next year.



09 Aug 2018 19:07:31
Also regarding Tav, if we've set a 7 million asking price I'd assume we're looking for around 5 to 6m which is a fair price I'd say. It will leave us short of cover in right and left back but wouldn't make us much worse in our main starting 11.



09 Aug 2018 21:48:38
good game tonight from the team. coulibaly what a player.



09 Aug 2018 07:50:27
In this mornings paper Rangers have
rejected £1.8 million bid from West Brom for Tavernier. Ed, how much do you value the player? Can we afford to lose him before tonights game?



{Ed039's Note - £4-5m and no we can’t afford to sell him before tonight)

09 Aug 2018 15:43:19
Agree Ed I actually think he is worth more given he's a proven right back that not only assists but scored an incredible amount of goals from that position Not perfect at defending but his play is all about directness and getting up the park, which we could agree is one of the best in Britain not just Scotland

Nowadays you demand much more from a fullback to get up the field more and you have to say most aren't always great or get caught out at the back when your relying on this type of player to not just defend but also get all the way up the park

Even the best full backs don't always get it perfect

Hardest football position to play your football imo.



{Ed039's Note - I agree he is good going forward but in my opinion he is a very poor defender and that’s reflected in his value)

09 Aug 2018 16:13:40
Totally agree with Ed, let’s be honest if he was as good at defending as he is going forward he wouldn’t be playing for us.



09 Aug 2018 16:31:42
Kaz I agree he’s worth more I’d say 10m but hardest position in football no chance!



09 Aug 2018 16:31:58
I like tav, but if he was to go we would not be weakend, not with flanagan there. Yip tav is better at going forward but we are much stronger defensively with flanagan. I would like to see tav play further up the park👍.



09 Aug 2018 16:51:47
Thats just my opionion HB81 Ok what you reckon is the hardest position? You do most running in those positions.



09 Aug 2018 17:53:15
Yeah most running but it’s not the most technical position a good engine and decent cross and you can get by! imo goalkeeper is the hardest position closely followed by Striker especially if it’s a loan striker, We need a striker!



09 Aug 2018 18:03:36
Putting the ball in the net is the hardest thing to do in football mate also playing as a striker your playing with your back to goal most of the game witch is also a lot harder than most might think .



10 Aug 2018 22:52:31
Yea ask alfredo. the effort he puts in and still gets stick on here.



09 Aug 2018 14:47:47
Looks like declan john will be away for a minimal fee.

I liked the lad but for me a nominal fee being maybe 500k is an absolute joke. 23 year old welsh international with EPL experience and 2 years left on his contract. We need to stop selling ourselves short. Celtic have just got £8m for Armstrong who wasn't first pick, had one more international cap than john whilst being 3 years older and had no EPL experience.



09 Aug 2018 15:13:15
Stuart Swansea site saying fee .1. 2 million where are you seeing 500k.



{Ed039's Note - £1m plus add ins)

09 Aug 2018 15:18:19
Hearing he cost £500k and went for £1.2m plus add ons and sell on clause, still too little imo but not exactly pocket change.



09 Aug 2018 15:18:51
Mate i hate celtic but the reason there players are worth more as they have been performing in champions league and winning trophies non stop. Our players just look ok. While winning nothing. It boosts there value am afraid.



09 Aug 2018 15:29:23
There’s a good few players i'd like to see leave before John and Windass and especially not for the small fees quoted. That said in Gerrard we trust. Can’t see Tav being aloud to leave now if John is going and with Hodson away also.



09 Aug 2018 15:42:57
Celtic get pumped by 6 and 7 in the CL i'd hardly say that's competing. I seen on twitter £500k. i'd be looking for Atleast £1.5m and that's only because he's technically third choice.



09 Aug 2018 15:48:36
Spot on paul86, sticks in throat tho👍.



09 Aug 2018 16:10:16
I totally disagree lads. E. g maribor were in the champions league last season so does that mean all their players are worth £6/ 7m? Panama qualified for the world cup but doesn't mean their players are all worth a fortune. there's a massive difference between qualifying and competing in these massive tournaments and we all know getting pumped by 6 and 7 in the champions league isn't competing. Celtic are just much better at bigging up their players. Look at boyata. This time 4 or 5 months they wanted him gone as he was awful. 2 good games against panama and tunisia at the world cup and they're supposedly rejecting huge bids for him whilst we're letting our players for paltry sums.



09 Aug 2018 16:12:34
Stuart AC aye there getting pumped 6 in champs league but they are then giving us 5. Hopefully we can really do well and put the pressure on this season. Think we will sell katic and barisic in few years for healthy money.



09 Aug 2018 16:20:33
Getting more money than you paid for someone that’s not wanted or needed by the manager and also getting them off the wages is a bonus, yes we all want large fees but not always possible.



09 Aug 2018 17:50:05
John went for 800k.



09 Aug 2018 18:48:32
And Celtic pump Rangers by 4 or 5 StuartAC.



09 Aug 2018 14:09:02
windass going to wigan, 2.5mil + add ons.



09 Aug 2018 14:23:15
As long as there’s a decent sell on fee I’ll be happy.



09 Aug 2018 14:23:27
Good. I’ll give him a lift.



09 Aug 2018 14:36:09
Am already taking him james👍.



09 Aug 2018 15:00:51
Nice one Coldo. Assumed there would be a number of folk who would offer him a lift lol.



09 Aug 2018 15:07:04
Windass out. Hodzic in!



09 Aug 2018 15:35:09
Hearing it’s only 1.5M! Even 2.5 is a joke for a 14 goal midfielder 😂😂 bend over we are away get ****ed!



09 Aug 2018 16:05:49
Well kenny it just proves that like most of us, gerrard does not rate windass either. Where's DK? DK do you still think gerrard rates windass?



09 Aug 2018 16:25:25
Your right KennyRFC9 2.5m is a joke! Granted he does go missing in games but think how much better he was last season compared with the season before that under 2 useless managers if he could come on that much again under better guidance he could turn out to be a top player cause even his biggest haters can’t deny that he has ability, I think if he goes we will regret it one day.



{Ed039's Note - I think he will be worth more than £2.5m but it’s got to be looked at as decent business considering where he came from and how inconsistent he is)

09 Aug 2018 19:00:50
Windass confirmed as away. Anybody know how much?



09 Aug 2018 13:47:21
According to 4 Lads Rangers have apparently accepted a 2m offer from Ipswich for Windass, if there's any truth in this surprised we didn't ask for more after the season he's just had.



09 Aug 2018 14:07:30
apparently windass on way to wigan for 2.5mil + add ons.



09 Aug 2018 14:19:06
Unless he's asked to leave. Then 2 mill plus is ok.



09 Aug 2018 16:36:15
He had a hot 2 or 3 months at most. Missing the rest of the season. Don't wish I'll on the guy but not good enough often enough to play for us.



09 Aug 2018 13:35:36
Apparently windass fee agreed.



09 Aug 2018 13:59:01
Coldco who with.



09 Aug 2018 14:09:57
Ipswich I believe jboy👍.



09 Aug 2018 14:20:53
Could actually be wigan, dramatic twist.



09 Aug 2018 14:24:11
Coldco also seeing deal with Wigan on.



09 Aug 2018 12:31:44
James Tavernier fee is very close to being accepted. He's a doubt for tonights game.



09 Aug 2018 12:50:40
Does anyone know the fee involved for Declan john?



09 Aug 2018 13:29:48
Hami, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a free or a nominal fee with a sell on clause.



09 Aug 2018 13:45:58
Confirmed that Tavernier got on the team bus for tonight’s game. Windass and Alnwick never. Looks like we have accepted £2 million for Windass. Rumoured to be getting Solanke up on loan and signing either Hodzic or Koljic.



09 Aug 2018 13:58:26
Swansea fan site says 1.2 fee agreed for Declan John, hope that is true.



09 Aug 2018 14:10:53
Declan john having medical.



09 Aug 2018 14:21:58
Alnwick never? I thought it was fod that was off to blackburn?



09 Aug 2018 11:58:57
West Brom now trying to force our hand by chucking in Sam Field on loan as part of the deal for James Tavernier

Never thought that we may not need him Who else can you offer?

Your looking at 7m plus a loan deal

Josh Windass will definately be away Think the deal will be close to 3m asking price.



09 Aug 2018 12:08:59
I would have thought 4-5mil and tav would have been gone but well done Rangers for sticking to their guns and saying 7mil is the price. Not really inspired with sam field either. Windass is surplus and any decent fee will help us get the big ST that we badly need👍.



09 Aug 2018 12:21:37
We don't need another midfielder it's a striker we need or 2 if Windass also leaves before the transfer window is closed.



09 Aug 2018 12:31:54
We need a striker a creative midfielder and a centre half and all business will be well and truly completed 👍🏼.



09 Aug 2018 12:34:50
I think If they go to 5 million we will sell.



09 Aug 2018 13:01:55
We should be asking for £10 mill for Tav and £5mill for Josh at least - its pennies to the English sides.



09 Aug 2018 13:18:28
Thats exactly what we need Kaz, although an outside right who is quick and direct wouldn't go a miss either👍.



09 Aug 2018 13:38:04
If Tav goes, Flannigan will obviously revert to RB but leaves us with a big problem with LB. Halliday - no thanks. Also, who's your choice to take over the arm band? I'd go for Ryan Jack.



09 Aug 2018 14:05:15
Sirstruth - We've just signed Barasic as a left back where have you been hiding?



09 Aug 2018 14:24:09
Barasic is cup tied for the qualifiers, also doesn’t leave much cover for they positions.



09 Aug 2018 10:30:07
Wes Foderingham to Blackburn apparently getting the green light.



09 Aug 2018 11:38:05
Good luck Wes. Just not quite good enough for where we want to be.



09 Aug 2018 15:39:39
Shocking selling foderingham if true far better keeper to keep to keep McGregor on his toes than alnwick.



09 Aug 2018 16:13:38
I like foods he's done well for us. Good luck.



09 Aug 2018 09:51:00
My sisters fiancé who works at melwood as a chef tells me That either Danny Ings or Dominic Solanke will join Rangers on loan for the season, more likely to be Ings as he has been told he won't feature this season.



09 Aug 2018 11:07:03
Great to see that Liverpool are such a communicative club, sharing details of transfer business with the entire workforce.
Well done Liverpool. Dave King take note.



09 Aug 2018 11:21:57
My wife's wiper tells me your full of it. I posted, before the transfer window opened, that we'd get Solanke late in the window. Though if Ings could pass a medical and we only paid a % of his wages
could be a brilliant signing.



09 Aug 2018 14:26:46
Just been reported Liverpool want 20m for ings or 5m for a one year loan fee. 5m for a year loan lol so guessing your post is made up.



09 Aug 2018 15:15:25
Or your report could be made up frustrated blue.



09 Aug 2018 16:00:01
BoabPattersonRFC, Frustrated blue has not made this report up, that is exactly what Liverpool want for Ings, wee apologie maybe.



09 Aug 2018 16:03:02
Google Danny ings Liverpool and look at fee wanted. It's already put off pa lace and Southampton. It's a lot more believeable than my sister in law works at Mel wood and everybody tells her all the transferror news so wind your neck in. I smell s#$%e.



09 Aug 2018 16:17:28
It's cool buzz ultra. It is a rumour site. Some folk should just make them believable. As if a cook at Mel wood would be privy to all the transfer dealings 😂😂.



09 Aug 2018 09:26:33
Solanke to be allowed to move on loan with Liverpool now likely to allow him to join Gerrard at Rangers.
Watch this space.



09 Aug 2018 09:52:39
Saw this earlier. Still not sure about him though. Hopefully he will find form up here.



09 Aug 2018 10:31:57
Thought solanke had dismissed joining us as he didn't fancy living up? here think Ings above our pay grade.



09 Aug 2018 12:35:19
Perfect platform for Solanke to trade his football and if we are still involved in European football he want get better opportunity than that!

I don't see why he wouldn't want to come join a massive club like Rangers for a year and experience 50,000 plus fans every other week.



09 Aug 2018 15:22:41
With Sturridge staying, Origi returning on loan and NO offers for Ings reports say he has changed stance on Rangers link.
If we don’t land Solanke then any of the other 3 mentioned could be loaned instead albeit Sturridge probably far too expensive wage wise.
