Rangers Transfer Rumours

19 Feb 2026 12:01:26
Cantwell return? Apparently Danny is Keen. Anybody heard anything?

19 Feb 2026 13:10:32.
Danny was apparently keen on Windass and we were assured he would be a Rangers player in January. Take no notice.

Cantwell wasn't good enough first time around, and he's certainly not good enough now. He's found his level down south. He can prance about with his hair ribbons in the Championship.

19 Feb 2026 13:21:18
I have seen the headline on Inside Football (I think), but I have also read that he has knocked back a £27k a week contract offer from Blackburn, so I'd be very surprised if we would top that for a former player who was very inconsistent.

19 Feb 2026 14:34:28
No way will the Sand Dancer be back, he had his chance and he blew it.

19 Feb 2026 14:59:38
Cantwell is not coming back.

19 Feb 2026 15:02:38
Tuur, the English Championship is a higher level than the SPFL, so your comment makes no sense whatsoever. 🤦🏼‍♂️

19 Feb 2026 15:30:27
Came from a niche betting site called Sportsboom, who aren't renowned for their scoops. Also Wrexham and Derby linked more seriously. But, as someone says in contract discussions, so will be rubbish.

19 Feb 2026 16:03:08
Todd Cantwell is talented, absolutely no doubt about that, but it's forward we should be looking at and not in the past, so the past is where this conversation belongs. 🤔

19 Feb 2026 16:17:08
G4, it's not a higher level.

It's more competitive and has more money.

That's why it's ranked higher than our league.

But it's not a higher level in terms of player quality.

19 Feb 2026 16:51:23
To be a great player as opposed to just average, attitude is a big part of that process. His attitude stinks, and I can't ever see it changing. So, onwards and upwards with fresh blood, and not cast-offs from a previous time.

19 Feb 2026 18:53:44
I wouldn't bring him back, but he had some good games for Rangers, and I still say he was better than Aasgaard has ever shown in a Rangers jersey.

19 Feb 2026 19:11:26
Cantwell, Windass! Deary me.

19 Feb 2026 19:38:06
Championship is worth 2billion. 😂 There is no question it is a better league.

18 Feb 2026 18:19:44
Lassana Coulibaly

18 Feb 2026 19:11:46
Really can't see this being true. And, hope not.

18 Feb 2026 19:11:46
Again?

18 Feb 2026 19:32:13
Lasagna Coolywonty. No chance. Danny wants to build something at Ibrox, and I don't believe that any previous player would be considered at the moment. This is a German trait; they like things a certain way, and I don't believe that he would be talked into signing underperforming players. He gets the best out of what he has, but why should he try harder for previous players? I think that with Danny at the helm, we are going to do very well in the coming seasons.

All we need is a proper striker to team up with Ryan, a couple of better centre backs to go with Fernandez, a right back, and we will be in good shape. 6 of our defenders are OOC come May. It's a bit concerning.

18 Feb 2026 20:14:45
Go fishing much, do we. 🎣 🤯

18 Feb 2026 20:49:11
A proper striker, Whineonthewine?

What like a 10m striker. 😜

18 Feb 2026 20:49:37

Here's my contribution.

18 Feb 2026 20:59:17
Tbf, Fork, I saw an article on it this morning, mate. Dismissed as clickbait, as I really can't see it myself, but OP is definitely not making it up.

18 Feb 2026 21:12:42
No thanks, another utter regrettable poor loan. I had actually completely forgotten about him until I looked up his name. We've moved on, thank goodness.

18 Feb 2026 21:25:06
The world is too serious and whiney nowadays. Think back to the mid nineties. Words we all used, things we said, things we did and pish we took. The films were great, music was tekno and 2 quid got us white light lightning. Rangers were unbeatable and times were good. Now everyone is easily offended and criticism is taken personally, when this is a rumours/banter site on which an editor spends time on and is punished reading all of our rubbish so nobody gets their feelings hurt.

Enjoy what we have and what we can do. And yes, I'm a trout master badge winning, anagram specialist with a doctorate on how to annoy people. Also, our superstar 10 million pounds superstar only has 7 goals in 29 games. Would advocaat keep him??? Stop being so serious.

18 Feb 2026 21:31:29
it's a German trait to not sign players that have been at the club previously?

18 Feb 2026 23:06:26
Whine, now that's a good post. 😁

90s, we were king. Shove yer 80s up yer arse. 😅

Acid, E's, Oasis vs Blur, Rangers, Free Speech.

18 Feb 2026 23:32:54
Be better re-signing Mateusz Zukowski, the lad we barely played, then released. He moved to Magdeburg in the German 2nd Division a few months ago, and the manager there moved him from RB to CF (one of his secondary positions when he joined us).

He's a proper striker now.
18-minute hat trick in a recent league game.
10 league games played, 9 goals scored and 1 assist.


We released him for free. Magdeburg picked him up from the team we released him to for a massive 250k, and now he is scoring for fun. Bargain. They will make a packet on him the way he is playing now as an attacker.
He scores 1 goal on average every 97 minutes since his new manager realised his potential as a striker and moved him to that position.

19 Feb 2026 02:39:51
Ocean Colour Scene, lol.
They had one half-decent song - 100 Mile High City.

I preferred The Verve, The Stone Roses, and The Charlatans to Beatles-wannabe Oasis. Their 1st album was decent though.

19 Feb 2026 03:08:46
Lasagna Cou' Le' Ballay is delicious, apparently.
French-Italian fusion dish.

19 Feb 2026 03:22:29
Yes, Mateusz Zukowski is in excellent form as of early 2026, having transformed from a struggling right-back into a high-performing striker for 1. FC Magdeburg in the 2. Bundesliga. He has recorded 9 goals in his recent matches, including a 17-minute hat-trick in a 5-4 win against Greuther Furth in February 2026.

Background:
Rangers FC: Signed as a right-back in 2022, he failed to make a league appearance and was released in 2023.
Return to Poland: He spent time with Lech Poznan and Slask Wroclaw with mixed success before moving to Germany.

Just watched his highlights on a German highlights site. He is some player now since moving to the striker position. Cracking shot, excellent pace, strong on the ball, legs like tree trunks, and knows where the back of the net is. A bit of a poacher too, he seems to be in the right place at the right time in the box.

This rumour is up there with the Josh Windass rumour.

19 Feb 2026 13:12:41
Ocs have lots of good songs. Going to see them in Nov in Aberdeen. One of the best bands I have seen live.

19 Feb 2026 14:24:21
Paul, some great tracks, mate.

19 Feb 2026 16:07:17
Ocs have had many great songs and are superb live. Seen them at least 6, though Oasis are the band of the 90s, none come close, and they are even better live.

19 Feb 2026 16:19:20
Loved both The Stone Roses.
And The Verve.

And Ocs were always decent too.
Laudruphagi.

All excellent bands.

18 Feb 2026 12:30:18
One of my mates heard that we are going in for Motherwell Elliot Watt and Dundees Luke Graham in the summer transfer window?

18 Feb 2026 13:34:58
Good info, Rangers man.

18 Feb 2026 15:17:45
Why are we going for them just to do the same as Finlay Curtis and Lyle Cameron?

18 Feb 2026 15:27:49
Thanks, Rangers man. Both are good players. I think Raskin will be sold in the summer, and Rohl will be looking for a no 6 that can control games more with their passing, which is what Watt has been doing for Motherwell. Luke Graham has had a great season and has a lot of potential. Being left footed is a big plus.

18 Feb 2026 15:47:31
I can't believe we aren't in for Just. I think he's Motherwell's best player. He and Maswanhise are who I'd be going for, especially if Chermiti leaves. I like Watt, but I really love wee Barron and can't see Watt replacing Raskin or Chukwuani.

I wouldn't be disheartened by it, I just don't see the big deal about Watt, imo. Happy to be proved wrong, and maybe I've just not seen enough of him.

18 Feb 2026 16:02:11
We should be pillaging Motherwell for Maswanhise, Just, and Watt in the summer.

Raskin will likely be sold in the summer (imo).

Each of those three makes our team better, and will work with how Danny likes to rotate the team, especially if we get European football and all the cups.

18 Feb 2026 16:18:49
Ehl, if you don't mind me asking, mate, why do you say it won't be for the best, if we do indeed sign Dundee left sided centre half Luke Graham. 🤔

18 Feb 2026 17:07:58
Let's be clear!

Watt is never replacing Raskin for anything!

18 Feb 2026 17:59:42
Got Barron and Cameron on loan at Aberdeen as well. I think one of them would need to go to bring what in?

18 Feb 2026 18:33:02
Rumour of Barron to Italy before his injury, so maybe we would definitely need to replace the domestically trained player.

18 Feb 2026 18:39:24
Maswanhise has only scored 2 goals against top 6 teams from his 13. We don't have a difficulty as a team scoring against the bottom 6, with 33 of our 47 being against them. So does he really improve us? Also, I wasn't really all that impressed in the Well game with him, despite them having over 60% of possession.

Probably just me, but I expected him to have more touches of the ball and do more with it.
We are moaning about a forward who only scores against the top 3, so how long before we complain about a striker who doesn't score against the top 6?
Just me, possibly.

18 Feb 2026 18:41:40
Trevor really is very simple. u need a squad, not 11 players.

Cameron will move on.

18 Feb 2026 18:50:00
Elliot Watts's family are huge Rangers fans.

Just saying.

18 Feb 2026 19:13:08
I was really impressed by Just when we played them at Ibrox, and thought he was excellent when they beat Celtic. He looks a good player, and I'm sure we and they are keeping tabs on him to see how he performs till the end of the season.

18 Feb 2026 19:39:30
Hope Cameron doesn't go. I was really chuffed to get that deal done, and thought us not giving Aberdeen an option was a statement of intent when it comes to his future. It would give him a good pre-season.

18 Feb 2026 20:10:40
Mwell, play the perfect way that suits. Just, if we don't do it, it would be a no.

18 Feb 2026 23:41:33
Would rather have Mateusz Zukowski back. He fits Rohl's tall, powerful player system well, and would pair up with either Chermiti or Naderi nicely. Sell Miovski and buy Zukowski (again).

19 Feb 2026 09:43:39
Look, Cameron is a good player, but where does he realistically play for us? He's not a winger, nor is he someone I'd want to have in a midfield two.

He would probably have played under Clement, but he's gone now.

Exactly the same reason we wouldn't be signing Just. He doesn't fit in the team.

19 Feb 2026 16:03:04
I think Cameron could play as one of 2 6s, no bother. Size doesn't matter.

He could also play as a 10.

For me, his best position would be one of the 2 8s in a mf 3.

18 Feb 2026 07:36:46
Read in the papers this morning apparently we are weighing up a summer mover for Dundee CB Luke Graham. Hope this one's a goer. Really like this young lad. Plus wouldn't cost an arm and a leg 👌🏽

18 Feb 2026 08:15:36
Hopefully I'm wrong, as I'd like us to sign the best Scottish talent, but I'm not convinced this would be a good move.

18 Feb 2026 08:54:40
An ideal replacement for Nsiala.

18 Feb 2026 09:46:18
What happened to Jack Milne being the pick of the young Scottish CBs?
I only watch these teams when they play against us, so I don't have much insight into who's who.

18 Feb 2026 09:58:02
They knocked back a 900k+ offer from an English team. So, I was told. He's got over 100 appearances, and his stats are supposedly good. Only 2 months older than Chermissy, and guess what? Luke Graham has 7 goals as well. The same as our star boy. I don't see any mention of fans saying that Luke is still learning his trade.

;) I think it may be a good buy. I don't know what's going on with John and his contract situation, but I'm not too bothered if he stays or leaves. Luke would sign on less wages, is younger, faster, has more sell on value, and has a better injury record. Seems like a good target.

18 Feb 2026 10:15:04
Whine, Souttar wants more than we r offering.

Aberdeen value Milne in excess of 5 million.

18 Feb 2026 10:15:47
John, if the lad from Dundee signed, would he be Nsiala's replacement, as in cb number 5? Do you rate the lad Milne from Aberdeen better?

18 Feb 2026 10:27:05
He may well be a good back-up, but I'd like, when we sign some of the young Scottish talents in the league, for us to loan them out for a season, or even a second one, at a level like League One down south, as they might not be ready for the Championship.

18 Feb 2026 10:41:35
Whine, grow up with the crap chermissy patter.

I agree, re Souttar. He can be good on his day, but between those he can be distinctively average, prone to a blunder and an injury.

Bringing in young, hungry Scottish players keeps the squad fresh.

18 Feb 2026 10:48:51
J-zer, Jack Milne is right-footed, Luke Graham is left-footed.

18 Feb 2026 11:04:32
Souttar shouldn't even get a new contract. A thank you and a goodbye should be all he gets.

18 Feb 2026 11:05:27
No point in buying the guy if he isn't going to be in the matchday squad. We've got a long history of not having enough faith in youth, so taking on a guy who is holding his own to shove him out on loan would be a waste of time. He'd end up a future starter for a rival SPL side.

18 Feb 2026 11:07:39
Athole, that only says more about him/her.

18 Feb 2026 11:27:55
Souttar doesn't want more money. Know the family personally.

18 Feb 2026 11:31:56
What a pile of pish. We need to be offering at least a year's extension to Souttar, who has been by far our best defender this season. Just because he's the designated blame hound for some people, the truth is plain to see.

18 Feb 2026 11:56:50
And it is 7 goals in 120+ appearances, with 6 at least against lower league teams (League 1 mainly). Only 1 goal in the SPL this season (YC has 7).

At least, if you are trying to make a point, be accurate.

🙈

Similarity granted, he is 2 months older, and this is his first time at SPL level. So he might still need some development if we do sign him; sort of more like Fernandes.

18 Feb 2026 12:09:04
From what I've seen of them, I'd rather have Luke Graham than Jack Milne. Aberdeen's valuation of Milne is way too high, both have had similar playing careers and similar paths to first-team football, with both having a couple of caps for Scotland's under-21s. If Graham is 4mil cheaper, then it'd be a no-brainer. I'm hearing we're also interested in Lecce CM Lasanna Coulibaly (4mil euro).

18 Feb 2026 12:28:42
Luke Graham has 2 goals this season, 6 in his whole career up to now, which includes goals in the lower leagues, and that's ok, he is a defender after all. Comparing him with Chermiti, though, is just utter nonsense.

18 Feb 2026 12:45:50
Just because Souttar was our best defender for a period this season, that does not give any real credit when you look at the other defenders.

Fernandez has overtaken him on that front anyway, which, considering Fernandez wasn't given a chance under Rm, says a lot.



And don't even mention Djiga. 😂

Souttar has made big tackles/blocks on occasion, fair play, but he's far from a great and reliable CB if we want to push on.

Plus he's also out injured a lot, or at least so it seems.

Souttar is fine as a backup but we need better.

18 Feb 2026 13:38:49
Bunsster, I don't think Nsiala plays for us again.
imo, Milne shows a bit more than Graham at present, but I don't think either is a starter yet, so five million plus for a bench player is a bit steep.

I think both will be full internationals soon. Another ch I like in Scotland is Connor Allan.

18 Feb 2026 13:42:06
Do the bouncy. Why did he not sign the deal on offer?

18 Feb 2026 14:37:08
John, I imagine that he wants to get the best deal for him and his family. Coming up to 30, this would be the last chance for a decent deal. Also, why would he take the first or even second offer when there is still a while to go to the end of the season. He is a current Scottish international, and would probably get a better deal down south in the Championship, seeing as Hanley was reportedly getting 30k at Norwich.

The fact that he has refused is not a bad thing; just a player doing what is best for him. No issues with that.

18 Feb 2026 15:03:25
Would anybody sign a contract when they know he'll get better elsewhere? His current wage would be doubled in the Championship.

18 Feb 2026 15:14:59
John, you ask a question either thinking I know the answer to that, or trying to be smart. Both are things you regularly call people out for on here. There is no need for that kind of answer. If you know, or think you know, the answer to your seemingly rhetorical question, then share it with the rest of us. This posturing has no place here.

18 Feb 2026 18:37:38
To be fair to Souttar, we can't keep saying he's first choice, then pay him less than what he could earn elsewhere, or pay guys coming into the club who are not doing as well as him more, and still expect him to sign.



And, don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge Souttar fan, but I will never fault the guy's desire to win or his effort.

18 Feb 2026 18:43:55
Certainly not trying to be smart. Knowing the family, u may know the answer.

Go and take a.

18 Feb 2026 20:00:48
A look see if u can update anything.

18 Feb 2026 20:14:05
I'll drive Souttar down to any club in the Championship free of charge. 👍 If he can get double, then see you later. He is not committed. 👍

18 Feb 2026 20:18:09
Hanley that plays for Hibs, Angus. 🤔

18 Feb 2026 20:30:34
30 k, really, think I'd go too. 😉

18 Feb 2026 21:59:53
Not once have I claimed to know Souttar or his family. More utter nonsense.

18 Feb 2026 22:18:42
Fork, just using Hanley when he was at Norwich, current Scottish international, as why Souttar may want more. Not 30k, I imagine, but why would he not be wanting a decent deal? We don't know what the offer is; perhaps it isn't enough cash, less money, or even not a long enough contract.

So he has supposedly turned it down. Trying to apply some logic to it somehow without any real info. 🤷

18 Feb 2026 22:49:28
GC1872, you say Souttar isn't looking for more money, so I take it you know from his family that he is leaving us? I wonder where he will be going if it's not a cash-driven move?

19 Feb 2026 02:49:19
We should buy Bassey. His contract runs out in 116 months, could get him for around 15 mill, and pair him up with Fernandez. Rock-solid pairing they would make, not much would get past those two.

Easily the best centre-back by a mile we have had since returning to the SPFL.



Let Souttar and Tav move on to other clubs, it's time for a whole new chapter.

Tav to Leeds on a free.
Souttar to Hearts on a free.

Thanks for your contributions. All the best.

19 Feb 2026 08:43:04
Lh, they are both left-sided centre halves, so who would play on the wrong side? I also don't believe Bassey would go for that price.

19 Feb 2026 09:51:12
So Souttar is looking for a bigger wage from Rangers, so Hearts will give him the wage he's looking for, Lh?

18 Feb 2026 00:05:20
First time posting but enjoyed this site for years, anyone heard anything substantial on Lassana Coulibaly returning or is it just prior affiliation seeing us linked to him? Still waiting on the deeds for all the land and wives I was promised while we were blessed with the Godlike genius of Bongani Zungu so I'm admittedly wary of anything involving African midfielders but Coulibaly looked like he might develop into a half decent player at times, fair bit of Serie A experience behind him at this point

18 Feb 2026 12:31:21
No, but I did read an article that Danny Rohl wanted to bring back Todd Cantwell. That would be a controversial one, and test Danny's popularity with the support. I must say, though, that as a player I liked him, and he was far better than the likes of Aasgaard in that No. 10 position. I still wouldn't re-sign him, though.

18 Feb 2026 13:16:45
Another club Cantwell hasn't settled at. As captain, he may well lead them into League 1 before bailing out.

All that's left now is his usual mystery social media post, hinting at a story to be told at another time as to why he has underperformed again.

I don't want Cantwell back at Rangers.

18 Feb 2026 14:18:16
Cool story, bro.

18 Feb 2026 16:04:07
I was coming on to see if there was any info on that. My one memory of Todd was tagging 2 YouTubers in a post of a goal he scored against Hearts (I believe we bottled the game in the final minutes), the same day our rivals went on to win the title.

Absolutely no thanks. Decent enough technical player, but we have that w Aasgaard already.

18 Feb 2026 18:45:14
Cantwell has played well for them. And, while I think Cantwell was a little hard done by Clement, when he was one of the better players in the team prior to Clement, I think he's exactly the type of player we need.



But!!!!

Because of all the stuff that goes with him, his media interests and the way he left, I'd rather look elsewhere.

I bet they will also ask for a good fee.

18 Feb 2026 18:47:43
George, sorry, but Cantwell is a far better player than Aasgaard.

And, to put it mostly on him when Clement was pretty much benching him most games, is unfair. He did stupid stuff in the media, though; the whole Sutton thing was idiotic. Don't bite, everyone knows Sutton is a clown. He did not have to make himself one either.

18 Feb 2026 21:19:48
What's the op name all about lol.

18 Feb 2026 23:10:06
OrangeT, I was checking to see it was the same Lassana Coulibaly that had played for us earlier because I had nearly forgotten him, Lassana and Coulibaly are sort of common in football so when I checked on African midfielders under Gerrard I was reminded of Zungu who I'd nearly as forgotten as well.

He was utter mince but the South African fans were hilarious, couldn't go on YouTube to watch highlights without them offering you land or their sisters for wives, they were better value for money than Danilo's old man too so that's the username, good times lol.

16 Feb 2026 17:20:56
Not sure if it's been reported on here but anyone picking up on Steven Craigan getting a job with Rangers youth teams in some capacity? Never heard him say anything nice about Rangers when he's a pundit but that's the talk.

16 Feb 2026 17:33:56
A new youth team manager will be appointed this week. Talk yesterday was Craig or one other.

16 Feb 2026 18:19:25
I do know Steven Craigan is a blue nose, not that this makes him a Rangers youth coach in the making, although he does get the name of being a good coach. 👌 I haven't heard anything regarding him possibly becoming a Rangers youth coach. 🤔

16 Feb 2026 18:21:35
Be very surprised at this, that's for sure. 😳 😳

16 Feb 2026 19:34:35
I can see Brian Gilmore moving up to the 19s.

16 Feb 2026 20:09:43
Nice guy, but he makes me yawn and switch off. Not what you want as a youth coach.

16 Feb 2026 21:12:18
If it means I don't have to listen to him commentating on the Northern Ireland matches, I am all for it! Never shuts up.

16 Feb 2026 22:06:41
Gilmour has offered nothing in his roles at Rangers. It would be a standstill move.

17 Feb 2026 00:26:08
What are you basing that on, John?

17 Feb 2026 07:05:02
Mario. Knowing him, and watching him train players and take out teams.

17 Feb 2026 12:09:56
Oh please, not Craigan. He hasn't coached for years, and even then he wasn't good enough to hold down a position for very long. There are literally dozens of more suitable youth coaches around.

17 Feb 2026 13:31:44
Thornton, it would be a surprise to me if Craigan was told it's a two-horse race.

17 Feb 2026 13:43:18
I heard Michael Stewart was interviewed for the coaches' role - just so that we could reject him again. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

John, I know you're very knowledgeable about the youth teams; you see a lot more than I do, but I thought Brian Gilmour was well regarded as a youth coach, not just by us but across Europe.

17 Feb 2026 20:35:27
Al, so how many have offered him a job? I was asked my view, and I gave my honest opinion.

Mb, everyone else rates him, but not me, mate.

18 Feb 2026 21:21:22
John, do you know the one other? Just because you name Craigan, who has already been mentioned on here, but not the other, which hasn't been mentioned on here. 🤷

14 Feb 2026 20:43:44
Seen couple online reports stating Monaco interested in Gassama in the summer and Besiktas interested in Chermiti. If true and descent fee then please sell both in my opinion

14 Feb 2026 21:44:18
Got to agree, can get better for both positions.

14 Feb 2026 22:30:13
Sell, sell, sell.

14 Feb 2026 23:25:35
Those stories broke mid transfer window, I think, with the club confirming they had offers on both players. Apparently, we knocked back 13 million for Chermiti from Besiktas and a 10 million loan-to-buy deal for Gassama, according to some media sources.

Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund are both keen on Fernandez as well.

14 Feb 2026 23:27:30
I agree with the sell in the summer to buy better, but it would have been a mistake in January. A couple of injuries would have left us struggling. Also, I think they'll both play a big part in the run-in.

15 Feb 2026 01:27:10
Seen original reports, but new reports came out yesterday. Here's hoping the interest is real for the summer. I'm torn about Fernando's offer. Great profit, but there is a big sell-on clause, and other than Rommens it would leave a whole new defence next season.

15 Feb 2026 03:08:09
Davie, I wouldn't sell Fernandos, but would sell the other two in the summer.

15 Feb 2026 07:40:22
Laudrup, the 13 million was from Fenerbahce for Chermiti, which they came out and publicly said they didn't bid and have no interest in him.

15 Feb 2026 09:20:33
The Chermiti story was a bag of Jimmy White.

Gassama and Chermiti are both dug meat for us. Gassama is just a torn-faced wee boy who goes in cream puffs because he gets subbed due to how brutal he is. Chermiti is just a striker who can't do what a striker is meant to do, and that is score on a regular basis.

That boy will dine out on his 2 goals against the worst tim team in 40 years for the rest of his Rangers career.

If DR starts with both, or either of them, today, then I'm out and I will spend my time in the Louden rather than torture myself in the stadium.

Both will not be missed if they do go!

15 Feb 2026 09:31:13
Is your name tongue in cheek, Sunshine. 🤣

15 Feb 2026 09:32:24
Remember, Fernandez's former club has a substantial sell-on too, even though we paid a lot, so the fee would have to be Bassey levels for me, especially with how we've struggled to find good cb options.

15 Feb 2026 09:42:00
Honestly, if there are decent bids for any of the players Martin brought in, they should be sold. The money should be given to Danny to recruit the players he wants, so he can have his own full squad.

15 Feb 2026 09:42:58
It would be outstanding business if we can move Gassama and Fernandez on to teams in the Big 5 leagues.

Showing that we are a viable pathway for players could really help in terms of attracting a higher calibre of player next time round.

To enable it, though, we need a solid base of players that we can rely on to provide continuity - preferably home-grown.

15 Feb 2026 10:03:43
It is Baz.

I used to be raisetheroof on here, but when he left, I changed it to this. It's a special shout out to a poster who used to be on here and used the term 'Sunshine Supporter' all the time when he was having a go at any supporter who dared criticise the team, player/s, etc., for season after season of failure.

I miss him. 😁🤣

15 Feb 2026 10:15:07
Who was that SS? I can't mind.

15 Feb 2026 11:35:23
Yeah, I remember DK19 well, Sunshine. 😅

15 Feb 2026 12:03:20
That's it. 👍 Cheers, Stig. 👍

15 Feb 2026 12:14:24
Both are waster jerseys, imo. Chermit had 1 good game against a dreadful Celtic defence, and Gassama has done next to nowt.

15 Feb 2026 12:26:16
How will we cope without Yousloser Chermissy? He has 4 goals in 6 seasons, with 2 goals in one game. 🫨 We will never win anything without his "hold up play". Oh yeah, I forgot that we had 13 goals in 2 games without him in the squad, but some say we don't provide for strikers. 😂

15 Feb 2026 13:01:50
No probs, Forky. 😊👍

15 Feb 2026 13:44:53
I was in favour of holding on to Gassama because I thought he looked good when he first signed, but if his form has gone, it's taking too long to come back. As for Chermiti, if it hadn't been for that second half in the Old Firm game, nobody would be wanting him to stay. We could have sourced a replacement who would have scored more goals, even in January. Kilmarnock lost their main striker to injury in the Autumn and went and brought in a free agent in John-Jules, who has already got 7 goals this season, including a hat trick of good finishes last Wednesday night.

In a worse side, he is already better than our 10 million striker. I'm not saying we should have bought him, but it shows there is better out there if we had bothered to look.

15 Feb 2026 18:51:04
30m for Chermiti now, guys, and 17m for Gassama?

15 Feb 2026 18:57:54
This aged like milk.

15 Feb 2026 19:01:33
Whine. 🤐😁

15 Feb 2026 18:50:21
Fair play, Sunshine.
What are everyone's thoughts on Gassama and Chermiti today?

15 Feb 2026 20:09:54
Chermiti was outstanding today and won the game for us. His contribution was superb. Gassama, to his credit, did superbly to set up the late winner. I'd agree to sell if the figures mentioned are correct, but credit where it's due today.

15 Feb 2026 20:57:15
So many on here really need to apologise. No doubt they're the same people who shout at players when they're having a bad game. Dug meat?!? Really.

15 Feb 2026 21:54:13
This is why we are all keyboard warriors and not in the dug out.
As I have always said. 🤔😉 Chermiti excellent. Keep him. 😁

15 Feb 2026 22:49:43
I'd only sell Gassama. The guy has talent, but half the time he is too lazy to help his teammates. Chermiti still has time to prove that his big performances can happen more often and win us silverware. I think the guy has flaws, but you can't fault his effort and desire. Convert that to goals, and he is a real asset.

16 Feb 2026 09:39:48
Think we've kinda shown that already. EHL would like us to do it more frequently, though.

Love the switch to youth this season.

16 Feb 2026 10:04:44
21 and 22 years old, don't you think both might just mature into decent players.

16 Feb 2026 16:55:05
If we can make a decent profit on both players, then we have to sell them while there are buyers.
Especially if they go to big league clubs, like Ehl said. It will attract other young talent to the club.

14 Feb 2026 17:02:45
Hearing this afternoon that norwich city have offered james Tavernier a contract for next season with a coaching job in the offer 🤔Our captain is in the short term only focusing on Rangers in their fight to win the league title and Scottish cup and won't entertain any talks on his future until the season is over 🤔 He'll sit down with his agent in the summer and decide what he's going to do beyond this season 🤔 He's allegedly a couple of offers to weigh up as well as an offer from Rangers 🤔

14 Feb 2026 17:28:54
Good. Best of luck to him.

14 Feb 2026 17:32:27
Tav has been a great servant, but for him and us, he has to look for a move after this season ends. He prob could play a bit-part role as the backup to a younger fullback, but his time has been up, and I'd love him to go with a trophy or two as a parting gift.

14 Feb 2026 17:43:39
I'll pack his bags.

Nah, to be fair on Tav, he's still one of our most important players after all these years. Yes, he is miles off what he used to be! Yes, his defending and positioning stink! Yes, he's one of the most unsuccessful captains in Rangers history! But even so, he's been our best signing over the last 10 years.

14 Feb 2026 17:54:26
Take it. Take it!!

14 Feb 2026 19:15:44
At this stage, Rangers have not made an offer. Unless Danny is fibbing.

14 Feb 2026 20:23:46
I think that would be a great move for Tavs. He has been a legend for us during some tough years, and he has stats that will probably never be broken. Best of luck to him.

14 Feb 2026 20:27:48
They'll read the room and decide what's best for all at the end of the season, I'd imagine.

14 Feb 2026 20:37:49
Good move for player and club. It's the correct time to part ways.

14 Feb 2026 22:14:46
It isn't Tavs' fault. He is the most unsuccessful captain that is on the previous board. Tav is a Rangers legend, and the highest scoring defender.

14 Feb 2026 22:30:44
Taxi!

14 Feb 2026 22:42:33
Regarding Tav, I don't think people appreciate how good Connor Goldson was as right centre back.

He was (under the radar) brilliant at organising the defence, moving across to a 3 to allow Tav to bomb forward at will.

It was only when Goldson got injured and was subsequently sold that Tav "lost it".

I'd argue that Rangers have never replaced Goldson in CB.

14 Feb 2026 22:42:42
So Tav, who got together with the leadership group of players and went to the higher-ups to complain about Clement and get him sacked, is now being pursued by the guy that got sacked and that he didn't want to play for (like many managers before)? Not sure I believe he is off to Norwich.

14 Feb 2026 23:14:48
Almost as believable as Clement being desperate to hook up with Matondo again. I could see Clement giving Souttar a contract offer as being a more likely scenario. Panathinaikos in Greece are said to hold an interest in James Tavernier, so he could possibly team up with Cyriel Dessers again next season.

14 Feb 2026 23:33:00
His goal and assist average per season since joining Rangers are 15 goals and 15 assists. Any team in the world would love an RB with those kinds of average numbers, and teams pay a fortune for players that can deliver those numbers.

Tavernier is a Rangers legend. He could have left in his prime, but his allegiance to us, considering all the changes of managers, etc., meant he stayed and extended his contract a few times, and the fact every single manager has picked him as captain speaks volumes of his qualities.


Yes, he has flaws, but so does every player at every level of football.

Newcastle made a big mistake letting him go. As we have all seen in Europe, in games against very high quality opponents, he has done the damage time and time again, from assists to goals, to penalties, to free kicks. He would have been worth a packet and could have gone on to a bigger club if Newcastle had nurtured his qualities and kept him for longer.

15 Feb 2026 09:33:50
Pace in the Championship and the open style of football will destroy Tav, as he can't run anywhere near what he used to.

15 Feb 2026 13:04:39
100% correct, Forever, he's more likely to go to Saudi, the US or Cyprus.

15 Feb 2026 17:35:32
I think Tav has had about 3 good seasons since he arrived. I'm not even talking about the trophies when I say that, as he was badly let down by the quality around him.

All he seems to be good for now is taking pens. He's been really poor since the Europa final. I wish him all the best, but I really hope this is his last season.

15 Feb 2026 23:18:14
Tav's not had a single bad season for us. He's had some exceptional and some good, but none have been bad. That's just pure and utter nonsense.

See, if Tav played for Celtic in the same 10 year period, he'd be an all-time great with these E-numbers, never mind arguing if he's a legend or not.



It's not his fault; we were a basket case when he signed, and what went on behind the scenes at that time.

Celtic have had some great players in that time; they've had Bacuna and Scott Wright.

16 Feb 2026 20:22:02
Laudrup. Yeah, he could have left in his prime, but I don't remember any club putting in an offer. If u know otherwise, share it with me. I love Tav! But no team has put an offer in for him to have to make a stay or go decision.

14 Feb 2026 16:12:14
Rangers watching Luke Graham

14 Feb 2026 16:52:52
I know nothing of this boy. Have you watched him, John? Worth a punt?

14 Feb 2026 17:01:20
Def has potential. Could be a good player.

14 Feb 2026 17:13:54
Do I think he has great potential? They knocked back 800k from Portsmouth in January.

14 Feb 2026 17:34:25
Celtic looking as well.

14 Feb 2026 19:23:32
We've been monitoring him for a while.

Personally, I would rather he didn't join us.

14 Feb 2026 19:27:29
Thought he showed up well against us at Ibrox.

14 Feb 2026 19:35:41
I like him. Solid player who went on loan as low as the Midlands League and worked his way up the system. He was scouted by Arsenal.

Left-footed as well, always in high demand.

14 Feb 2026 19:54:03
Very good for Falkirk last season.

14 Feb 2026 21:03:30
Why not EHL? So far, I've been very impressed by him, albeit he still has a lot to learn. I think he has potential to be a Scottish international CB.

14 Feb 2026 21:16:15
Why's that? Is EHL not good enough, or a bad move for the player?

15 Feb 2026 01:15:36
I think EHL maybe means he isn't in the sense for Scotland, and for the boy he'd be better going elsewhere.

15 Feb 2026 01:31:09
Looked him up, with people saying potential. He's 22. Yes, I know potential may come later, but I can't say I've personally heard of him. I'd rather keep that money and spend it on a player with real potential.

15 Feb 2026 08:09:40
A decent player he is. I'm with EHL, I don't think his ceiling is high enough to sign for us. I had the same concern over Cameron. I'm just not sure we'd be able to develop him to being powerful enough to be a long-standing Rangers centre half.

15 Feb 2026 08:21:07
Davie, because u have not heard of him, Rangers should not sign him. Thanks for the laugh.

15 Feb 2026 10:09:16
My money is on him being a Celtic player.

15 Feb 2026 11:39:55
I think he still has a lot of development to do, and I don't think Rangers is the place for him at his age - maybe if he were a couple of years younger.

Also, I think the areas that he needs to develop are the areas that would be exposed more with the style and demands at Rangers.

He's the type of player I'd love to see stay in the league, at Hearts, Hibs, or Aberdeen, or to go abroad and raise the reputation of our game.



Unfortunately, he'll probably end up in the Championship or League 1. In fact, he's very similar to Liam Lindsay, who's carved a very good career out for himself down south.

15 Feb 2026 12:44:56
Can you be more specific, EHL? He's technically very good with both feet, although favours his left, and is absolutely enormous. Is it a pace issue, which was the case with Lindsay? For me, he's the type of player Rangers should be going for.

I don't see many 22-year-old centre-halves who don't need to develop more. If we had signed him at a younger age, it is almost guaranteed he wouldn't be as good as he is now. I can see some merit in waiting, but he won't be available after this summer.

15 Feb 2026 13:38:30
Blue Hue, he's only 6ft. I'm 6ft, so I know it's tall, but in football terms for a ch it's not.

15 Feb 2026 14:03:15
Of course, BlueHue, obviously just my opinion.

He's naturally not the quickest, so is more suited to a team that defends deep as opposed to a team that plays a high line.

If you look at his stats, or watch his games, he is outstanding in the air and also at reading the game (I think he was leading the way on interceptions at one point) - which again suits a team that sits deep. However, he's not particularly great in the tackle, especially recovery tackles, which would be a concern if asked to play a high line.



In terms of on the ball, his passing is great, but he does rely on his long-distance passing more. However, he's not particularly comfortable carrying the ball, and when given time, his decision-making is a little questionable (which is where most of his bookings come from).

Lastly, I don't think he's massive. I have seen him for a while, but from recollection he's actually quite small for a centre half. I'd guess around 6 ft 1 or 2?

15 Feb 2026 19:02:23
He's actually about 6ft 4 in and very wide in the shoulders. Online sources have him at 6ft, but that is miles off, and probably from when he was 17 or something.
He's extremely comfortable on the ball. Pace, I'm not so sure. I think he'll play for Scotland.

15 Feb 2026 19:16:24
Actually, I've checked and Transfer Market has him as 6ft 4 in. That looks correct, as he was the tallest in the Scotland U21s when Chilokoa-Mullen (Dunfermline) was in the team.

15 Feb 2026 20:44:22
He's about 6ft 4 or 6ft 5. He and Koumetio, who is 6ft 5 himself, played against us.

15 Feb 2026 22:53:41
He absolutely is not 6'4; he is 6 ft 0 on one source and 6'1 on another.

I mentioned his name weeks ago, and my point was he looks a bit small for our level.

15 Feb 2026 22:58:52
All sources have him at 184-186 cm, so 6 ft - 6 ft 1 in. Only Transfer Market has him at 6 ft 5, and that is not accurate, lads. He's definitely 6 ft - 6 ft 1 in at most, and 75 kg.

15 Feb 2026 23:01:16
Blue Huey, Transfer Market is the only site from all the top 6-8 sites Google gives that have him at that height; the rest are 6 or 6'1 maybe.

16 Feb 2026 11:58:14
I use my eyes. I suggest you do the same. I don't think I can post photos here, but I've got a screen grab that shows him 6 ft 4 in minimum against a goalkeeper and a defender of 6 ft 4 in.

If anything, I would say 6 ft 5 in on that evidence. If you thought he looked small, you must be confusing him with someone else.

16 Feb 2026 23:17:51
Nah, Blue, I've looked at him with my eyes, and he looks about 6'1 to me.

17 Feb 2026 06:32:22
Number 5.

17 Feb 2026 15:57:00
Blue, the players are all pretty small.
It's an unders team as well, so they're not fully grown.
For me, he's 6 ft, maybe 6 ft 1 in.

18 Feb 2026 23:08:36
Luke Graham is 1.86m (6ft 1in) tall.
