Rangers Transfer Rumours

24 May 2026 17:04:49
Not going to touch on the Shankland thing as it looks all but announced

Dan Neil is currently in talks with the club.

Hampus Skoglund is not in the Hammarby squad today. So hopefully that's to have talks with us.

24 May 2026 17:21:37
Paterson also not in the Everton squad.

24 May 2026 17:29:32
Neil is due to have talks as per Alan Nixon earlier.

Skoglund isn't playing today as he's suspended.

24 May 2026 17:52:32
Aww, that would make sense then. What's the story. 😂 Never noticed that, thanks for the update though, and yeah it was Alan Nixon. I saw mention Neil as well.

24 May 2026 18:11:37
Ayrshire, he'd have been watching Sunderland today, mate, unbelievable first season on the return, 7th and in Europa, stuff of dreams.

24 May 2026 18:12:08
Patterson injured again.

24 May 2026 18:37:56
What's the thoughts on Dan Neil? Doesn't look anything special on YouTube?

24 May 2026 19:01:39
Patterson not in time, as he will be injured. There is no way on this earth we are stupid enough to sign Patterson.

24 May 2026 19:05:13
If he plays the way he did for Sunderland, fans will love him, Reidpt, very clever footballer, leader, elite engine, excellent range of passing, hopefully this happens.

24 May 2026 19:25:59
I don't know anything about Neil, but I get the absolute fear when MyStar gets so carried away.

24 May 2026 19:33:01
Fair play, EPL, can only wait and see, outstanding for Sunderland.

24 May 2026 19:41:16
Have to agree, EHL.

24 May 2026 19:44:51
If Neil comes that's him jinxed. 🙈😂

24 May 2026 19:45:03
Hopefully, if we do get Dan Neil, then we also go for Watt. In case Neil flops. The only thing I will say, and I've not watched a lot of Dan Neil, is he is a natural 6, whereas Rothwell was an 8; Martin tried to convert him into a 6.

So hopefully that would assist Neil in having a better time, and Neil has been a club captain, so is a leader. But I've no clue how he'll do in all honesty.

24 May 2026 19:52:29
Ayrshire was a 6 in Sunderland promoted team, mate, started as an 8, box to box, but he controlled many games in that promoted side.

24 May 2026 19:53:24
I've no idea on how Neil will do in Scotland. I've learned to wait and see them play first, as even the highest rated players we've had from England have massively flopped. 👀 Going to be a busy, busy few weeks before the World Cup. I expect mainly Scottish league players and frees in before pre season.

24 May 2026 16:48:38
Anybody got any rumours then?
Pleeeeeese.

24 May 2026 17:47:17
Wee Agnes doon the road took 3 rolls from the Tesco but only paid for 2! Shhhhhh Wilkins.

24 May 2026 18:24:46
Were they Danny Rohl's (sorry).

24 May 2026 19:54:47
From what I'm aware of we've agreed a few deals with players but are not quite finished agreeing fees with teams.

24 May 2026 13:23:22
Good start to the madness of the rumours.
Anyone picking up shankland met Rohl last week? Hence why the talks have been moved quickly.
Shankland flying back from a holiday today to push the move over the line.
Dan Neil also one to keep an eye on folks, planned talk with Dan and agent next week.

24 May 2026 13:44:27
I called in Super Scoreboard on Friday night to say we should be signing him and making him captain.
He's already a captain, always scores against us and that mob, he's Scottish and an international and can play off a main striker or as a 9.


Reports saying he has a release clause at the end of this season, which is a nominal fee. This would be a great signing imo.

24 May 2026 14:04:47
If it's free, then it makes sense. He could replace Miovski who has been a complete jersey. Not sure what has happened to Miovski, but he just can't do it in a Rangers jersey.

24 May 2026 15:04:41
Hope Niel happens Union. Another player will great leadership.

24 May 2026 15:39:05
Good thing from Rangers kept this under raps till midweek.

24 May 2026 15:43:19
Does the signing of Shankland indicate that Miovski is offski?

24 May 2026 15:46:03
Would love Braga.
And the boy from M-well.

24 May 2026 16:29:17
He will be a terrific addition to the team. Knows the league well and is quality in the box. Hopefully we sign another couple of Scottish players who know the expectations of our club.

24 May 2026 19:26:21
4 strikers is the planning for the squad, gentlemen.

24 May 2026 00:12:00
Looks like we've activated the release clause for Shankland. Smart move for us. The guys a leader and exactly what we need right now.

24 May 2026 12:22:57.
No release clause. It's a free. He had 1 year deal with option to stay, is my understanding.

24 May 2026 12:32:26
He had a 3 year deal, if it was a free we wouldn't be negotiating.

24 May 2026 12:38:04
GDog, he does have a clause. His contract can be ripped up at the conclusion of the first year of the 3 year deal. It was a 3 year he signed at Hearts, just the clauses weren't revealed.

24 May 2026 12:39:53
We are negotiating with Shankland, not Hearts.

24 May 2026 12:40:16
No one knows what his contract is with Hearts.

{Ed001's Note - I am sure him, his agent and Hearts will know, as will the lawyers who drew it up and probably a lot of legal staff who actually did the work on it. Plus all the details have to be lodged on FIFA's TMS, which a lot of people have access to.}

24 May 2026 12:41:28
Southend - all reports stating it was a 1 year deal with an option of a further 2 years. Reports also state we were not negotiating with Hearts, but only the player, so that backs up he's currently a free agent.

24 May 2026 12:49:38
3 year deal with a clause that he can leave for free if we sign him before 7th July. He's only a free to Rangers, nobody else.

24 May 2026 13:16:25
Shankland comes and wins the league, makes Martin, pl, Gvb, Beale look foolish imo.

24 May 2026 13:47:19
If he wasn't a free, we wouldn't be able to sign him just now as the transfer window is not open.

24 May 2026 13:53:38
You can sign players whenever We are Rangers.

Just a matter of the registration must be done through the transfer window period.

24 May 2026 13:53:46
Beale signed Dessers who scored 52 goals in his first 100 games. The best goals return of any striker since Kris Boyd, I believe. He was a fantastic signing.

24 May 2026 13:54:39
It's more registration window than transfer, tbh. We are Rangers, can deal anytime.

24 May 2026 14:14:59
Deal agreed and signed. Announcement just to come.

24 May 2026 14:43:21
Not if he's contracted to Hearts, as some are saying. That's why I'm saying he must be a free.

24 May 2026 15:02:52
Still, agree terms just now we are Rangers, with any player, not only if free.

24 May 2026 15:03:49
Gvb, not sure it makes Gio or Clement look foolish, as both wanted him, if I remember, & weren't allowed/cost too much at the time. Martin & Thelwell were foolish for not him free. Be foolish if he won Hearts the league but didn't.



Dessers was top scorer last season, Chermiti only got 1 less goal than him & got more assists than him this season. Takes a team to win the league unless you have a Messi in the team, we need more from other positions.

24 May 2026 15:04:54
We are Rangers. We can still sign him even if he's signed to a club, if it's mid season or not. They just can't be registered until the window opens.

24 May 2026 15:32:34
So a striker's league goals are the only ones that count now, strikers are judged on all competitions, not just the league, or do they not count anymore? 🤯

24 May 2026 15:37:30
I get we can still sign him etc, but some were saying he had 2 years to go, and all I meant was if that was the case, I'm sure Hearts would have something to say about it.

24 May 2026 16:49:35
I'm pretty sure Hearts announced it as a 3 year deal at the start of the season. Rumours of a Rangers clause could be true, and if so, well done, Shankland.

24 May 2026 16:50:54
Beef, I've told people this countless times here.

24 May 2026 12:00:23
Shanks deal done according to online.

24 May 2026 11:35:35
Seen a rumour on here saying we have agreed terms with Luke Graham. Can confirm these rumours are false.

24 May 2026 11:53:30
Not saying a future transfer may or may not happen though, but very, very doubtful he will be staying in Scotland. If he does, it will be with Dundee. The source is his mum. Players can change their minds tho. Italian teams are now interested in him also.

24 May 2026 13:55:47
The vast majority of footballers out there follow the money. I highly doubt Luke Graham is going to stay at Dundee.

24 May 2026 15:46:29
RohlWithCheese. I get your point, but fact Graham has told Dundee exactly what he wants in an improved contract, contradicts you. He's happy at Dundee and home with his family. Yes, money dictates sometimes, but not all the time. Being an experienced pro with 100s of games matters, then move on for big money. Regardless, though, this is from his mum, so I'll believe that.

24 May 2026 16:34:23
It may well be financially more lucrative for Graham to see out his contract and move for free.

24 May 2026 16:57:07
Agreed Ehl. Big signing on fee if free agent. As I've said countless times, though, his proffered move is down south. Portsmouth asked Dundee and offered him a trip to see Portsmouth, but unsure if Dundee allowed it going ahead.

24 May 2026 10:03:30
Chris Jack now reporting on Shankland deal. Looks like our first bit of business.

24 May 2026 10:23:15
I just read that too. Whilst I have no complaints about this, it's poor business. Should have got him 2-3 years ago, definitely last summer, for free. 🤷🏻‍♂️

24 May 2026 10:23:58
It's a hell of a start to our Transfer window.

24 May 2026 10:34:16
Hearts Standard reporting on it this morning, some think it'll be on a free but they're saying his current deal runs with Hearts til 2028. No mention of a release clause. They also say we're trying to sign him on a 3yr deal.

24 May 2026 10:39:37
Rwn1978, it seems to be reported that he was on an initial 1 year deal with an option of a further 2. Unsure how that deal would be structured, but it may be a case that he is technically out of contract again.

24 May 2026 11:02:40
Thought we might go for him just the way the manager and owners highlight experience in the league and leaders. He's both.

24 May 2026 11:05:34
If that's true, Blue & we get him technically on a free, I take bk my bad business comment, but still should have got him last summer.

24 May 2026 11:13:53
Really hope this happens! He's Rangers through and through, no doubt about it! Get him in and give him the armband! 🇬🇧WATP! Can you tell I'm just a wee tad excited about this. 😅 🤞🤞

24 May 2026 11:20:23
When we were first linked with him, I'll put my hands up and say I would not think he is what we needed. However, Shankland has proved he has what it takes to score goals in the SPL.



There is no doubt he will bring the goals and he will come desperate to win the league, and he's more than capable of doing so.

How are his injuries?

24 May 2026 12:01:56
2 year deal with 1 year option on table, with Shankland, our first summer signing.

24 May 2026 12:18:57
The boy had done everything in his power to come to Rangers and risked not signing a deal with anyone last season in case we came in for him. He will run through walls and score goals. Also think he technically a better player now. Delighted he's finally coming.

24 May 2026 12:20:36
Shankland has cut short his family holiday to sign his 2 year contract with Rangers with a further 1 year option. 👍 🇬🇧 He's already informed Hearts that his true wish is to leave to sign for Rangers. 👌 🇬🇧

24 May 2026 13:15:09
It's not poor business, 2 or 3 years ago he would have cost us £3 or 4 million, a fee that board could not afford, so, if we are getting him for free, it's not poor business by the club.

Granted we should have done this last summer, but that is down to the manager not wanting him, so the poor business was appointing Martin and there is no point in going over that again.
