Rangers Transfer Rumours

20 Aug 2026 10:33:15
From Transferfeed. Rangers are interested in signing PSV Eindhoven CB Amado Nagalo. 23yr old Burkino Faso international. No valuation given.

20 Aug 2026 11:06:01
Don't think PSV will deal with us.

20 Aug 2026 11:14:11
Why not loan in an entire back line? That's a novel idea that could work? Wait. We tried that last season!

20 Aug 2026 11:38:29
Big Slim, Drouech had a medical and a thigh tear, and a knee problem was identified. Why would PSV not deal with us? Morelos was out for half a season with a thigh tear.

20 Aug 2026 11:46:42
The loan deals for Penrice and the new boy are basically going to be permanent unless any injuries happen.

20 Aug 2026 08:03:03
Seems to be a bit of chat this morning around Fenerbahce making an offer for Raskin.

Always a bit suspicious of Turkish reports though.

20 Aug 2026 08:27:31
Come on, Coop, Turkish reports are always a delight. 👀😇

20 Aug 2026 08:28:00
I just think, do we have time to get a decent replacement, especially if it was Hertal Dahl that was his prime replacement.

20 Aug 2026 08:42:14
Dahl signed for Hull 2 weeks ago.

20 Aug 2026 09:13:08
Yeh, I think that was Bluedreamer's point, Petera.

20 Aug 2026 09:18:39
I know Raskin can be inconsistent, but I think this late in the transfer window it would be more valuable to keep him, as he's still our best midfielder imo. Hopefully he signs at least another 1 year deal, and we can sell him next season if he wants to move on.

20 Aug 2026 09:21:45
Petera, that's what he meant.

20 Aug 2026 09:59:28
I agree, just now he's our best option, would be happy if he stayed, as think would be hard to find a decent replacement at short notice.

But money talks.

20 Aug 2026 10:13:02
As long as we don't under sell him, still time to get a replacement in.

20 Aug 2026 10:35:11
Soon see if he's not starting 2night.

20 Aug 2026 10:42:33
The manager said that searching for players is not his job, but suggested he was involved in some way or has chats with the people responsible next door to his office. Don't think he's loving that set up.

20 Aug 2026 10:59:46
Sell him and invest the money in a CB and a striker, we've plenty options in midfield.

20 Aug 2026 11:02:25
Just got Dahl off my mind and there you've mentioned him. 😭😂

20 Aug 2026 11:18:21
Would love Ugresic, the other Serbian boy.

20 Aug 2026 11:33:38
Sounds like the rumour is full of eastern promise, Fork. ;-)

20 Aug 2026 11:49:07
My fear is that Raskin will run down his contract and take his pick as a free agent. For that reason I hope we can cash in now.

19 Aug 2026 23:04:24
Someone at Ibrox getting photos taken, picture was taken from someone who was having lunch at Ibrox apparently.

19 Aug 2026 23:34:18
It was this evening. They were in having dinner. The player getting his photos taken did look like Kosta. His photos were already done and released today. May have been for a Serbian magazine or paper. Or a new player that looked like him. 😁

20 Aug 2026 02:07:57
It's Miovski from last season.

20 Aug 2026 07:31:42
Has he gone forward in time then?

20 Aug 2026 07:57:35
Orange, if you look at the picture, over the photographer's shoulder the top is last season's.

20 Aug 2026 10:04:55
No worries, mate. Read that wrong.

20 Aug 2026 10:56:53
I realised after i had posted 🤣 how daft am i

19 Aug 2026 22:54:13
This young boy Venezuelan apparently something. either that or scouting trying to show they actually do something. We shall see.

20 Aug 2026 09:28:41
He played for Portland Timbers through the night.

From what I'm reading, he was poor; a 5.6 rating out of 10, in a 3-1 victory.
By all accounts, the poorest player on the pitch.

Hopefully his head has been turned by our interest and he no longer wants to be there.

20 Aug 2026 10:25:25
I don't like players that get head turned and don't put in the performance for their employers/team. Not professional whatsoever. He would do the same to us if that's his mentality.

19 Aug 2026 19:38:36
Is the deal for the striker from Portland timbers happening or is it off it's went quiet.

19 Aug 2026 22:01:07
It's not imminent anyway, still a good bit away to agree a fee with Portland.

19 Aug 2026 22:15:19
Copland, any signings close?

19 Aug 2026 22:21:42
They're playing during the night tonight, mate, so if he plays that may help tell u where the deal is at, or not at.

19 Aug 2026 22:37:17
If you don't mind me asking Coplandfront5 what's your own take regarding the possibility of us signing portland timbers striker Kevin kelsy mate do you think or have any info if it's likely to happen or not 🤔I like the look of big kelsy and imo is exactly the type of striker we need to replace Chermiti 🤔i really do hope we sign kelsy 🙏🇬🇧

20 Aug 2026 06:06:31
For info - Kelsey booked late in game, which PT won against San Diego 3-1 - so lad still playing for his team.

20 Aug 2026 06:55:41
It's an absolute disgrace he's playing when we've bid 7.4 million, even though it's been rejected. They could receive a record transfer deal from us!!

20 Aug 2026 07:12:45
Both the club and the player don't want the move, is what's being reported.

We can bud all we want, and Portland can reject or accept, but the lad doesn't want the move. It ain't happening.

Tav, think Wullie had said on here we made early enquiries, and since then we haven't followed it up.

20 Aug 2026 07:21:04
But if there's potential for a club record fee, it should be treated as such and he should be wrapped in cotton wool until someone maybe meets their asking price.

20 Aug 2026 07:34:22
Like we did with Chermiti, Tav?

20 Aug 2026 07:35:01
I believe Chermiti wanted the move.
Kelsey doesnt, different things going on there mate.

Personally, if a player wants a move and it's a club record fee, I think player should be wrapped up til that deal is concluded one way or the other.

U end up with half hearted challenges and players getting injured n stuff like that.

20 Aug 2026 07:46:09
Kelsy is open to the move. Otherwise we would pursue it.

Personal terms no issue.

20 Aug 2026 07:47:40
U can believe what you like. The situations were exactly the same. The player is paid by the club. Until a bid is deemed acceptable, the club has every right to play a player who represents them.

Not hard, guys.

20 Aug 2026 08:00:31
Come on, everyone must see Tav is being sarcastic here. 🤷

20 Aug 2026 08:12:11
You'd hope so. 🤣

Tav seems to have morphed into StevieG though!

20 Aug 2026 07:43:15
Stevie - how do you know the lad doesn't want the move?

20 Aug 2026 08:26:02
Yes Ghaz, it is sarcasm.

20 Aug 2026 08:35:23
😂😂 u feeling any better today Tav?

Wee but nippy last night pal. Looking for a bite?

Anyway. Gaz, nobody said the club doesn't have the right. U have completely missed the point of why clubs do this.

It's not to suit the player. 😂

It's to safeguard the club's potential fee when it's so high, they normally wish to safeguard that by testing the player tik deal is complete.

Why should Rangers be any different from the elite clubs in the world who do that?

Lastly, Athole, just going by multiple reports I've read maybe nothing else.

20 Aug 2026 08:54:11
I just thought you saying him playing last night would let the poster know where the deal was? That'll let you know where the Chermiti deal was as well then.

20 Aug 2026 08:59:01
Stevie, that's not true. Works done before bids are sent to see if players are open to moves, if he didn't want to come, then we wouldn't have bid.

19 Aug 2026 19:10:49
See the lad Mbuyamba who we were linked with numerous times starts for LASK tonight - hope he plays a blinder!

19 Aug 2026 21:26:25
Also, see Motherwell are linked with Swedish U21 International Kanga who has impressive stats and can play as a winger, forward or attacking midfielder (20 years of age).
Is this the type of player we should be looking at?

19 Aug 2026 21:31:04
Aye, a see he's played brilliant, that lot have certainly bought real talent. Wish we could, it's embarrassing at times, genuinely.

19 Aug 2026 21:55:43
Ryan, I get what you're saying. We're absolutely miles behind them with quality players, it is embarrassing. Hopefully our luck changes soon.

19 Aug 2026 22:04:24
I hope we can find something to click, mate, I genuinely do.

19 Aug 2026 22:06:01
We obviously can't give up and need to keep fighting, but unless we get more quality in quickly, we are playing for 2nd unfortunately.

19 Aug 2026 22:14:24
This was never going to be a one window fix, lads, as pish as that is. They can add 5 starters, we are potentially adding 15/16 new players.
Win a cup or two, consolidate second, and hopefully next summer we only need 3/4 starters to come in and that's when we will see real progress.

19 Aug 2026 22:17:56
Hearts are flying under the radar. They've scored 11 goals in 3 games.

19 Aug 2026 22:22:07
Definitely lads, a supposed we need to accept we're building something and perhaps we could of already done that if Stevie G didn't jump ship or we stuck with a manager with a plan. But we march on.

19 Aug 2026 22:59:23
The constant upheaval in managers and player turnover has really set us back.
Having to buy 10 players a season is not what we should need to do, but last season was frankly a disaster.
6 or 7 loan players, some out of contract, and far too many not near the standard needed, so this summer it was always going to be a rebuild.
What we need now is to accept things are not going to be perfect straight away, give the manager the support he needs to field the best team he can on the park.


At this point, it does feel like things are coming together slowly but surely.
And, it would be nice to not see any more injuries any time soon, and maybe we can see a few games in a row with the same starting 11.
Needing to change 5 players per game is not ideal in building a team.

19 Aug 2026 23:17:00
It leaves the question. Why do we find ourselves in a position where we're having to sign 15/16 players Again?

20 Aug 2026 01:32:28
The squad needs to have time to settle and mesh over the next 2 to 3 years (I'm not saying that means we accept not winning anything), and then a max of 2 or 3 players added each window that are top quality and walk into the team and are the best in their position in the league.

Ideally, ones that can play in the system we build with a settled team.

20 Aug 2026 06:20:32
My big concern with Hearts is Tony Bloom knows what he is doing. Our owners are learning on the job.

20 Aug 2026 07:06:23
Our constant changing managers season on season is definitely a contributing factor as we're never stable and it's continual upheaval of players changing all the time, we'll get nowhere with that continual trend. 🤔 I also agree, wishy, Derek McInnes can't fix all our wrongs in one transfer window and has to be afforded time to get the players he wants as long as we see improvement moving forward.

🤔 I think McInnes will get it right but he hasn't a magic wand and we'll have to suffer bumps in the road to get to where we all want us to be. 🤔 🇬🇧

20 Aug 2026 08:01:03
Because of the amount of pains we signed on loan last summer, Gazza, coupled with a lot of experienced players coming to the end of their cycle with us, Tav Butland etc.

20 Aug 2026 08:03:41
That upheaval also means our recruitment department and scouts are looking for and at 15-16 positions rather than being able to look for 3-4 in specific positions the manager wants. So, until we stick with a manager, even if we don't win the league, then we will continue to have to do that.

We also won't have the same cash to spend on the quality players as we will be spending some of it on the other 11 or so.

20 Aug 2026 08:07:07
We're still paying the price for the board and their disastrous appointments and strategies last season. Even if they had made any good signings, with so many loans and out of contracts, we'd still have been needed at least 10 players before even thinking about selling others.

They've probably set us back 2-3 years. Can only hope from here on we're back on the road and McInnes does enough to prove he deserves time.

19 Aug 2026 17:13:33
I have been told of a contact at the club that we are looking to have at least a LW and CB and Striker in before the close of window.

LW - Min-su Kim
ST - Kelsy if that fails then Maswanhise
CB - Not heard the names but they want a LCB.

From what i have heard Souttar has not played as he has had a slighy niggle since returning from WC and we don't want to affect his sale so this is why we have not selected him.

19 Aug 2026 18:44:51
Hope we can get Kim Min-su signed. Would Gassama be away if we got him?

19 Aug 2026 18:52:11
Didn't Del literally say today that centre back wasn't an area of concern?

19 Aug 2026 18:53:10
If McInnes can get a tune out Gassama like his last match, he should be going nowhere unless big bucks! Boy was unplayable.

19 Aug 2026 19:11:11
He did say that, but it will be required if the CB leave that we want to leave in Souttar and Nsiala.

19 Aug 2026 19:28:28
Gassama, absolutely no argument, is definitely talented. It's his attitude at times that's in question, never his ability. 🤔 🇬🇧

19 Aug 2026 19:29:37
Neil, even so, we only have one left-footed centre-back in Nsiala, and he'll probably go. I think we still need to bring at least one in for that position.

Kissthebadge, Gassama was good in that game but I'm personally still not sure about him. If he stays, then I do hope he can improve, as he does have good qualities.

19 Aug 2026 19:36:05
Gassama's ability is in question in my opinion, last season when he played, he continuously tried to beat the same man, refusing to release the ball, then ultimately lost it. I hope he continues to play better, but he's not been consistent enough just now to say his ability is great.

19 Aug 2026 19:42:39
I think unplayable is a bit of a stretch. When on his game he's a good player, but if someone makes a reasonable offer, I think we should take it. Too inconsistent and terrible decision making!

19 Aug 2026 19:44:51
Sorry, he just signed with Porto.

19 Aug 2026 19:53:37
If McInnes doesn't think the heart of our defence is a worry, then God help us.

19 Aug 2026 20:03:15
Who has signed for Porto, Bobby?

19 Aug 2026 20:07:02
He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. Say he says 'yes, it's a real worry which needs addressed', do you think Manny and Makhanya are going to burst a gut for McInnes this season? Even worse, what if we don't sign somebody and our defence is as good as it gets? Got to take what the gaffer says with a pinch of salt.

What I say behind close doors and what / how I say things to my staff are completely different.

19 Aug 2026 20:22:25
Souttar isn't being used for non football reasons, plus he's been told he's down here.

He's fit and has been for ages.

19 Aug 2026 20:35:12
Dado, consistency regarding Gassama is a different argument from ability, mate. 🤔

19 Aug 2026 20:47:57
Godfrey should be back in a few weeks as well.

19 Aug 2026 20:51:18
Would love us to sign the Korean lad, Maswhanise and a rock of a CB. 🙏

19 Aug 2026 20:52:16
McInnes said centre back not a priority. If we were to sign Amario Duberry, Kelsey, and steal Mikey Moore on loan, I think we would be looking really good going into the season, but that's wishful thinking. 😂

19 Aug 2026 21:10:09
Grant, unfortunately we won't be getting Mikey Moore even on loan, mate, that ship has well sailed. ☹️ If/when Spurs sign Savinho from City, Moore will be off to sign for FC Koln on a season-long loan deal. 🤔

19 Aug 2026 21:27:23
I'll be honest, Maswanhise will not work as a striker for us, especially a lone one for us. He might work out on the wing, but I think he's too lightweight. He fell off a cliff in the second half of the season due to teams leaning on him & being more physical with him.

Don't want Kelsy either, tbh, think it's too much money for the MLS player. Would rather push the boat out for Beljo for Zagreb, but with us out of Europa then the chances are very slim.

19 Aug 2026 22:07:22
We need another centre half, and the fact McInnes is saying otherwise is worrying. I hope he is meaning that he is trying to get a winger and striker in 1st before a CH.

19 Aug 2026 22:41:17
Sir Walter, that's unfortunate mate, Spurs must want him to try a different league this year.

19 Aug 2026 23:00:28
A good target for left Center back would be Diogo Leite out of contract was with Inion Berlin.

19 Aug 2026 23:21:14
What do you mean when you say "Souttar has been told he's down here?"

Do you mean done? I don't want to make assumptions.

20 Aug 2026 00:14:34
Requiem, I had put a post up about: "A good target for left Center back would be Diogo Leite out of contract was with Inion Berlin."

Then I read he was finalising signing talks with Porto. 😖

20 Aug 2026 07:04:36
I see, Bobby. The Portuguese clubs unfortunately seem to be common competitors for the calibre of player we often try to sign. Silas Andersen going to Sporting is another example.

20 Aug 2026 07:37:36
Gazza, I couldn't work that out either, pal, but you've hit the nail on the head there. He's been told he's done here. That's what it should say. 👍🏻

20 Aug 2026 09:29:39
I'd like an older more experienced CB. Someone who can organise and who has more of a brain. Davie Weir mould. A dependable sort who can bring on the players round about him.
