Rangers Transfer Rumours

24 Jun 2026 15:40:16
Is it true that the transfer fee for McCrorie is around £2 million? I think better is available for that kind of money.

24 Jun 2026 16:02:26
Like who, William, who would u have signed?

24 Jun 2026 16:03:26
I think £2million is a steal.

It's not 2010 any more. In transfer fees, £2m is not a lot of money now.

24 Jun 2026 16:14:03
For 2 million in today's market, he is about as good and as safe a signing as you can make.

The loan fee and wages wasted on Aarons are testament to this.

24 Jun 2026 16:15:19
Club trained. Scottish. Very versatile. Good age. £2m is a steal.

24 Jun 2026 16:18:44
Great value compared to paying a loan fee for Max Arrons.

24 Jun 2026 16:20:15
Some will just find fault with anything never satisfied or happy. 🤔🇬🇧

24 Jun 2026 16:22:31
Think it's a shrewd bit of business.

24 Jun 2026 16:23:50
McRorie wasn't good 9 years ago, not good enough now.

24 Jun 2026 16:29:43
Seriously, can't believe you would complain about a 2million fee for a player who wants to play for us and we want him to play for us. What is the downside in this?

24 Jun 2026 16:33:59
Exactly Sir W.

24 Jun 2026 16:42:11
Adj, do you watch him regularly? Or are you basing your opinions on what he was 9 years ago when he played a completely different position to where he plays now.
Cause I've watched him a few times, and he's more than good enough to be a squad player for us.
Max Aarons would probably cost 10m in today's market. 2m for McCrorrie is a steal.

24 Jun 2026 16:43:14
I don't get this argument of "wasn't good enough x years ago isn't good enough now" lol.

Are we suggesting players don't improve over time? How often have the folk making these comments watched Ross McCrorie recently, honestly? I haven't watched any of Bristol, so I don't know how much or how little he's improved, but his data looks pretty good, and I remember a performance from him in an Old Firm where he was arguably our best player on the day.

24 Jun 2026 16:43:34
Good business player has a great attitude and is a solid steady performer.

24 Jun 2026 16:43:51
Ajd, I think you answered your own question. 9 years have passed. Don't you think he has improved or learned his trade? To be honest, I have no idea and trust the scouting department. How much have you seen him play in those 9 years? I am not against this. I like the idea for all the reasons above.

24 Jun 2026 16:46:43
Max Aarons loan fee and wages for a few games last season must have broken 3m. Another 6m, we could sign Max and then meet his 40k pw or 2m a year wage demands. This just looks like a smarter investment.

24 Jun 2026 16:47:13
Or, some people can just have a different opinion than others, it's allowed.

24 Jun 2026 16:47:14
Record report we have been priced out a move for Bryan Reynolds. Rennes have bid 3.3mill.

24 Jun 2026 16:50:23
As an avid gambler of the Championship, I have watched Bristol a good few times and McRorie has stood out most times. I've wanted us to sign him for a while, and I'm really happy we are finally starting to put a bit of faith in Scottish talent again.

24 Jun 2026 16:59:38
For me, he wasn't at the level we needed when he left us, but to be honest, I would have happily welcomed him for more than the 2m when he left Aberdeen. Think he is a solid player that's homegrown, Rangers trained, and knows our club and fans' expectations. I personally think he is a solid RB that can play a few other positions which we badly need.

24 Jun 2026 17:09:29
I think he's a great signing. He can play a couple different positions. A lot of Bristol City fans have good things to say about him, and, for me, he should've been included in the Scotland squad.

24 Jun 2026 17:11:39
McCrorie will do us a good turn at RB, CB or even CDM at a push. As others have said, he has looked very comfortable in the EPL at Championship level.
Looking forward to seeing him in a blue jersey again. Let's hope most of our targets don't follow this site, as many would be put off by the negativity aimed at certain players - before they have kicked a ball.

24 Jun 2026 17:11:53
I think if Ross signs, many will be surprised by how much he's improved. An absolutely fantastic young man, would run till his heart stopped beating for our Club. He was a better player at Aberdeen than Rangers and he's a better player at Bristol than he was at Aberdeen. Give the boy a chance. Get behind him, the new Manager and The Club. We need to unify. This league is wide open.

24 Jun 2026 17:12:57
Wishy, feel the same as yourself, stood out when watching his side, that he wasn't good enough years ago is silly, like he's never improved since then.

24 Jun 2026 17:14:54
Record now reporting £1.5 million.

24 Jun 2026 17:25:33
The McCrorie haters are likely the same lot who said Ferguson not good enough, Shankland not good enough - good signing. 🇬🇧

24 Jun 2026 17:34:43
Absolutely brilliant business by the club.
One of us.
2 mill for McCrorie is excellent.

24 Jun 2026 17:40:53
Penrice next.

24 Jun 2026 17:52:31
I think it'll be McCrorie and Devlin signed first. I thought the conference today was interesting. When asked if he'd sign anyone from Hearts, he said that we weren't in talks with anyone who's contracted to Hearts. Maybe, just the way I read it, but I immediately thought it was a nod to Devlin.

24 Jun 2026 14:08:13
Harry Souttar, Henrik Falchener, Luke Graham, Roggerio Nysakossi and Casper Widell are all on the list of centre backs we're interested in.

Likely to sign 2 or 3 depending on Fernandez interest.

24 Jun 2026 17:00:54
Souttar would fit homegrown as came through at Dundee United. Like the look of the lad Widell.

24 Jun 2026 17:11:33
Did Souttar do the 3 years or was it just 2? Think I recall this being a point of contention last time we were linked to him.

24 Jun 2026 17:22:36
Would Souttar still fit the homegrown criteria given that he plays for Australia?

24 Jun 2026 17:40:25
Bellshill, it's tight if he done three years in United academy.

Foolmonty, nationality is not a criteria, think of guys like Munn, Lovelace, Nsiala.

24 Jun 2026 13:55:34
Atalanta and Bologna both very interested is Raskin. Two English Premier League clubs also monitoring his situation. Bologna lead the race currently as Rangers want to include Ferguson in the deal. Our asking price for Nico is 20million.

24 Jun 2026 15:54:24
I'd be over the moon if we got Lewis Ferguson and EUR5m for Raskin btw.
Plus, keep Conor Barron a player who will absolutely come into his own under McCinnes.

Wait and see the wee man go next season.

24 Jun 2026 16:04:35
I'm sure Raskin has a release clause of 12 million?

24 Jun 2026 16:21:53
Bunster thinks the 12mill release is a made up myth.

24 Jun 2026 16:33:11
I can't see us getting €20M, never mind £20M for Nico. Pretty sure it was stated that he signed a new contract to implement a release clause that sits closer to Bunster's £12M. That'll probably look like £9M up front and the rest in add-ons.

24 Jun 2026 16:48:15
AK, Raskin hasn't signed any extension.

24 Jun 2026 16:52:48
Would be an amazing deal for us fourlads.

24 Jun 2026 17:04:30
AK, that's why our club has been a disaster for years. Raskin is a regular for Belgian national side, which could be argued that they are one of the best sides in Europe just now, but we have fans that would be happy with 9m plus add ons. Meanwhile Celtic rejected 25m for a player nowhere near that same Belgian team. 20m is a steal for a Belgian regular.

24 Jun 2026 17:04:56
AK, Rangers value him at 20mill. There is no release clause. 👍

24 Jun 2026 17:08:23
Raskin is worth £20m easily, full Belgian international yet to reach his peak.

24 Jun 2026 13:16:44
Word going round is that Dan Neil could be announced as early as next week.

24 Jun 2026 13:34:15
It's dragged on for weeks, mate. Not so sure if the boy is as desperate to come here as he should be.

24 Jun 2026 13:40:37
His contract expires next Tuesday. Free to sign a contract on 1/7 as previously indicated.

24 Jun 2026 13:48:17
Manager upheaval just dragged it out a bit longer.

Decent signing.

24 Jun 2026 14:24:15
Neil has already agreed to sign for us. As John said, his Sunderland contract is up next Tuesday and once that expires he is signing for us.

24 Jun 2026 14:26:46
What's the story? No, it never. He cannot sign for a club before 1/7 or a fee would need to be paid.

24 Jun 2026 14:29:00
He could sign a pre contract with another club anytime within the last 6 months of his current deal. He doesn't have to wait until 1/7.

24 Jun 2026 14:36:08
Restore two to tally different things, he has chosen not to sign a pre contract with another club.

24 Jun 2026 14:52:05
Choosing not to sign a pre contract any time in the last 6 months suggests he was waiting and hoping for a better offer to come along. I'd rather have Barron who wants to play for us and gives his all even if he isn't as good as Neil.



PS - I've never heard of Dan or seen him play so he may be on a par with Barron, he may be better. No idea.

24 Jun 2026 15:02:26
Restore, still contracted to a club, said as much a few weeks ago. John is spot on. He signs before his contract has ended. We'd need to pay his club a fee. Niel performs as well as he did for Sunderland. It won't be long before he's loved as a Rangers player. Really like what Barron brings, but Niel is at a different level, more technical and a far better range of passing.

Really can't wait until he's signed, elite engine, leadership, vocal on the park, couple of things we've missed for years, and scores some belters from outside the area as well, left footed but very capable with his right.
Wonder when he signs if he'll tell us about being at Rangers before we were even linked with him.

24 Jun 2026 15:07:01
Rangers games that should have been.

24 Jun 2026 15:13:42
No, that's not true, Star. He could sign a pre contract with another club outwith England anytime within the last 6 months of his current deal. He doesn't have to wait until 1/7. It's called the Bosman ruling.

In England, a player wishing to sign a pre-contract with another club in the same league must generally wait until there is one month or less remaining on their contract.

24 Jun 2026 15:15:19
We wouldn't need to pay a transfer fee for Neil as he was in his last 6 months of contract, so he could have signed 6 months ago, no problem. But with him only being 24, we would maybe need to pay a small price for development, but we will see what happens with this 1. I think he would be a good player for us.

24 Jun 2026 15:16:50
John, no, it's not. Under FIFA regulations, a player aged 23 or older can officially sign a pre-contract with a foreign club (a club in a different association) at any time during the last six months of their contract. At any time!

24 Jun 2026 15:21:46
Ryan, specific restrictions protect academy development and youth compensation, meaning players under 23 may still be subject to compensation or transfer fees even after a contract expires. There is no fee to be paid at all.

24 Jun 2026 15:24:16
Restore, he still has a contact until next Tuesday.

24 Jun 2026 15:30:24
So what, Star. That's completely irrelevant. I have just copied and posted the exact rules for you to read, and you are still trying to suggest I'm wrong.

24 Jun 2026 15:30:45
Restore, u totally miss my point. He has not signed for anyone yet as he is under contract.

He has chosen not to sign a pre contract.

24 Jun 2026 15:37:14
Dan Neil, or any other player who is free to negotiate whilst under contract, could have provisionally agreed terms in principle (common) or even signed a full pre-contract (not so common) with Rangers, and the club may choose not to formally announce it until the timing suits all parties.

If it is a true pre-contract, it's typically a binding agreement that comes into effect immediately once his current contract expires.



In practice, players typically don't sign full pre-contracts - even though this is the commonly used language - they would have an agreement in principle, and delays in announcement are usually down to finalising details, administrative steps, or conditions such as medicals being completed before everything is formally confirmed.

24 Jun 2026 15:39:20
Sorry, John.

In this instance, you are incorrect.

Sunderland confirmed they were releasing him on a free transfer a matter of weeks ago.

He had verbally agreed a deal with us before they went on holiday. The manager situation just dragged things out a bit, but him signing on a free was always the likely outcome.

24 Jun 2026 15:39:43
John, his contract status is not the reason why he has not signed for another club. He is legally entitled under the Bosman ruling to sign for another club.

I suspect TFK hit the nail on the head with his reason.

24 Jun 2026 15:43:20
Restore, but he's not signed any pre-contract, he is still contacted until next Tuesday, clearly giving himself different options.

24 Jun 2026 15:46:51
He may be delaying out of respect for his contract with Sunderland, but the fact that he has not signed an extension with Sunderland null and void that thought, as Sunderland and their fans know he's leaving. I would assume that he has been waiting to see if he gets better offers.

24 Jun 2026 15:47:03
Basically, nothing is set in stone and we will know when we know. I don't know much about Neil, but I'm hoping to see a lot more of Bailey Rice next season. I'm taking it they're similar players? Correct me if I'm wrong, as my knowledge is honking nowadays. 🤦‍♂️

24 Jun 2026 15:52:16
Great info I'll leave it to the experts.

My star, I've obviously got it wrong last ten years.

Restore, there is no dispute he is leaving, what the story Sunderland official post says he's leaving 30/6/.

24 Jun 2026 15:52:25
Whatdthestory, but he still be paid until the 30th from Sunderland.

24 Jun 2026 15:52:55
Star. I never said he had signed a pre contract.

You said, exact quote.

Restore, still contracted to a club, said as much a few weeks ago. John is spot on. He signs before his contract has ended. We'd need to pay his club a fee.

You were wrong, mate, as I explained.

But yeah, I suspect he has been weighing up his options.

24 Jun 2026 16:01:28
Listen, guys, does it really matter?

All arguing over more important trivial matters.

We'll find out next week.

He is fully entitled to wait for a better offer. Why wouldn't he? People think Rangers are this top club in Europe and everyone should want to play for us above all else?

Get a reality check, guys, eh? We're minnows in compatible European terms these days.

24 Jun 2026 16:06:50
Restore, I actually think in our own language we r agreeing.

imo nothing wrong with weighing up options, same as Ferguson, Mccrorie, Graham.

24 Jun 2026 16:12:55
ThIno, the heat is getting to everyone.

24 Jun 2026 16:19:53
Totally different player to Barron.

24 Jun 2026 16:27:51
Yeah, John, probably mate. All I was pointing out was that this post you made was wrong.

What's the story? No, it never. He cannot sign for a club before 1/7 or a fee would need to be paid.

I wasn't trying to start an argument with you, bud. 👍

24 Jun 2026 16:37:34
A quick search through the archives and there are posters not agreeing with Restore and adamant they are correct, but in the past have said exactly what Restore is saying now.

Do some of you get kicks out of arguing with people for the sake of it? Or are your memories shot?

24 Jun 2026 16:46:06
March, I've watched him playing, it must be around 200 games, mate, around 30/40 in the flesh. Niel is a level above Barron, totally different?
Same work was all I'm meaning, but he's better technical and has a better passing range, both 6's or 8's.

24 Jun 2026 16:51:37
So to clarify he has not signed yet.
That's what I am talking from this. 🤔😉

24 Jun 2026 16:52:04
Why are you even arguing over this 😂 away out the back and have a cauld one.

24 Jun 2026 16:55:52
Thanks, TFK, was thinking the exact same earlier. 😂

24 Jun 2026 17:35:06
Maybe we are the better offer he was waiting for.

He was on loan with Ipswich 2nd half of the season, and their final league position would affect their intentions, so he was never signing a pre-contract anywhere.

Anyway, be careful with this heat, everyone. Bickering will only heat you up.

24 Jun 2026 12:16:39
Bologna apparently started "first talks" with us for Raskin according to Nicolo Schira on Twitter

Surely we ask the question of Ferguson in that?

24 Jun 2026 12:29:28
I'd be almost gob smacked if there hadn't been discussions between clubs about both if they want Raskin.

24 Jun 2026 12:31:47
It's further down the road than what's starting to be reported.

24 Jun 2026 12:31:54
Reckon if there was to be some sort of swap deal it'd be a straight swap with no cash involved, really can't see us getting anything more than 15mil for Raskin and I'd be more than happy with that to be honest.

24 Jun 2026 12:37:06
Wullie, do you mean Raskin to Bologna? Ferguson to Rangers or both going either way?

24 Jun 2026 12:46:22
Correct, Wullie83.

24 Jun 2026 12:46:57
Slim Jim's starting to have kittens. 🤣

24 Jun 2026 12:57:51
I think Raskin is worth more in this deal than Ferguson just because it's likely that Bologna will sell him on at a profit, whereas Ferguson will likely stay here if he signs, which is what we would want from him. If he does go for the same fee as Ferguson comes, I would want a sell on percentage as well.

24 Jun 2026 13:00:50
I'm patiently waiting out man from Ayr assuring us it's not happening.

24 Jun 2026 13:11:48
Both, Wishy.
I'm doubling down on what I was told about, I think it was 6 weeks ago now, and posted on here a few weeks ago.
Ferguson captain.
Shankland vice.

McCrorie and another Scottish player incoming.

I'm too old and too ugly to play games or be cryptic, but I can't come on and just spill everything I've been told in detail.

24 Jun 2026 13:22:45
Any names for the other Scottish player, Wullie? Penrice, maybe?

24 Jun 2026 13:24:47
I remember that post, Wullie, mate. That's what got all this started. 😂👍

24 Jun 2026 13:28:10
Exactly, protect your source at all times, Wullie.

24 Jun 2026 13:29:57
I would take a straight swap with Raskin and Ferguson. Raskin was rotten last season playing wide and attitude, it seems. Sooner he's gone to apparently higher heights, the better.

24 Jun 2026 13:39:00
A swap is fine but & this may not be a popular comment. Raskin is younger, more potential & a regular Belgium international. Ferguson is older, very little sell on value, & I suspect only playing because Gilmour got injured.

Admittedly, though, he's been a standout these first 2 games. So a swap, yes, but I would be looking for a little cash our way or a big sell on %.

24 Jun 2026 13:39:57
Wullie, I got told from a source that doesn't BS that we want Ferguson, Patterson, Penrice and Watt, mate.

24 Jun 2026 13:41:58
@AR32 Not me, mate. Time will tell, but I have no concerns as I will be proven correct.

I would be happy with Ferguson in a Rangers shirt, as I like him, but I am reliably informed he won't be here this season.

24 Jun 2026 13:43:19
Superslly Radkin was not rotten last season, that's just utter bs.

24 Jun 2026 13:58:11
Brothers in Arms, Slim Jim. 👍

24 Jun 2026 14:05:39
Straight swaps very rarely happen due to add ons clauses etc. Both will probably be negotiated separately. Not saying some sort of exchange won't happen and would be happy with it tbh.

24 Jun 2026 14:30:44
In Wullie I trust.

24 Jun 2026 14:32:55
Raskin was one of many who were rotten last year. We finished 3rd, that's all the proof you need. I honestly don't know what some people watch to claim that statement as bs.

24 Jun 2026 14:53:38
Would definitely put a sell-on clause on Raskin.
As he is a Belgian international.
He's young.
N could be sold on again.

Also would love Ferguson.
Hopefully a deal's done to suit all parties.

24 Jun 2026 15:04:49
Easiest way for Bologna to sign Ferguson's replacement is for us to give it to them.

24 Jun 2026 15:11:17
Maybe Tedesco wants both of them in his team, u never know. 😉 🎣 🎣

24 Jun 2026 16:05:22
Difficult to contribute to these threads without repeating what's already been said.

Ferguson to Rangers is a genuine possibility and all 3 parties are open to the deal - however it's a domino deal, i.e. it requires other deals to progress to enable the move.

As for Raskin, there won't be a bidding war & he has a preferred destination, but talks are at a very early stage.



Just for clarity, I know the players very well, having worked with them both, so also know a lot of their close friends - so all this information is pretty much out in the open.

24 Jun 2026 16:07:16
Kelly, Mccrorie, Souttar, Penrice, Ferguson, Barron, Curtis, Shankland. I'd like to add Gordon as 3rd choice and coach.

That's a great Scottish spine in the squad. Still one short for club trained but 5 maybe 6 association trained is good going.

24 Jun 2026 16:25:58
Stevie G, Curtis would class as B list so still room for 2 more club trained.

It's where re-signing the other McCrorie might not be a horrendous shout.

24 Jun 2026 16:58:11
🍿🍿 Getting prepared for Ferguson gate 2026.
Will he or won't he. 🤔🤔🤔

Not going to sit on the fence. I believe talks are happening, and the club are trying hard to sign him, but still in negotiations.

24 Jun 2026 17:14:57
Voice of reason EHL, amongst the fervour. 👍

24 Jun 2026 11:25:02
A new name we're being linked with, Zinedin Smajlovic 22yr old CB valued at EURO 5.4mil by his club (Sandefjord). Also reading Bologna have a firm interest in Raskin.

24 Jun 2026 12:05:20
Think Celtic have already had a big knocked back for him.

24 Jun 2026 12:22:12
We put a bid in for him that beat Celtic's initial bid, EUR4.5M + EUR2M in addons. Our bid was £5.6M. Olympics are supposedly in advance talks.

24 Jun 2026 12:33:09
Jasper, was reading Olympiacos were the frontrunners for his signature. 👍

24 Jun 2026 10:57:30
I see ross mccrorie has completed his Rangers medical according to some reports and will be given tavs old jersey the no.2 jersey 👍🇬🇧

24 Jun 2026 11:41:00
Sensible Signing, solid reliable player hardly ever injured and Homegrown.

24 Jun 2026 11:47:28
Wasn't too keen on this, but I have to admit I haven't watched him play in years, so hope he proves me wrong. And, of course, I'll back any player we sign once they're through the door.

24 Jun 2026 12:31:22
Good signing, strong and determined, exactly what we need. Low cost for a proven asset. Walteresque signing.

24 Jun 2026 12:34:55
Pics done.

24 Jun 2026 12:37:23
100% Lisbon.

24 Jun 2026 13:44:19
I'll take him, but we need a better 1st team starter right back.

24 Jun 2026 13:44:52
Happy with this excellent squad player between him & Shanks. I'm already excited about who else joins us.

24 Jun 2026 13:50:32
If Ross McCrorie is being given the #2 jersey, that suggests first choice RB? Sorry, but not good enough. Squad player only imo.

24 Jun 2026 14:06:59
Numbers mean nothing nowadays.

24 Jun 2026 14:40:09
Also true storm.

24 Jun 2026 14:49:30
Sometimes we are too judgemental even before we sign a player.
Ross has plenty of experience since he last pulled on a Rangers jersey.
Solid player and will be backed 100%.

24 Jun 2026 14:56:16
Numbers mean nowt, dsnt mean first pick.
It's down to manager who he plays.
Not a daft number.

N great signing a boy who knows what it takes to be a Rangers player.

Get behind him, troops.
