Reports suggest the Pena deal is over the line. Can't be a bad first signing, and got to add quality to the MF.



25 May 2017 19:04:48
I've heard that but I'm not sure what to believe.



25 May 2017 19:30:19
Ye suppose we should wait til official confirmation at our end before we learn he's off to Turkey PCP



25 May 2017 19:30:35
Good deal if it happens.



25 May 2017 19:45:56
Was he not bought for 7 million about 2 year ago? We would need to get him pretty cheap if it is true.



25 May 2017 20:55:54
7 million euros yeah, apparently never settled there and went back to Leon on loan - i'd imagine the club would be willing to let him go but it's just a matter of how cheap.



25 May 2017 21:49:00
Was it not 7 mil us wich is about 4.5 in our economy and there wanting rid just like we are with some of our players tbh i welcome the change an international instead of bread mans fab 7 . looming forward to the new season for a long time



25 May 2017 22:28:42
Don't know much about him doe's any of you guys know much about him?



25 May 2017 23:57:16
Albertz82.
this guy is like deck fast passing great tectonic and an eye for goal. oh wait so was garner.



26 May 2017 07:55:00
Can't see it being a done deal yet given he'd need to sort out a work permit.



26 May 2017 08:22:01
Appears he is a bit of a 'character' who's known to enjoy a few jars, but by all accounts looking to repair or rebuild his reputation. I remember another guy who did the same. mr gascoigne was his name #baller



26 May 2017 10:05:12
lwdawson, work permit shouldn't be too much of an issue, he has been part of mexico's 1st team recently.



26 May 2017 15:46:46
Aye true fifaguy.

Still think he would be great signing tho think he would have a lot to give us all over the park



26 May 2017 17:16:58
Pena deal all obet Mexican TV looks like it may happen. Fingers crossed the guy is dynamite Bears



26 May 2017 18:12:01
he has a eu pasport because of international duty does he not?
thought he would have to have one of them! not too sure though correct me if i'm wrong guys.
(like u lot need to be told to do that lol)!



27 May 2017 08:51:36
Pena plays in the second tier of Mexican football and does a job for his club, operating from midfield, breaking up play and setting up attacks. He is a small guy but like most Mexican players is pretty tough. It didn't work out for him in the top flight and he was criticised for having a flamboyant lifestyle off the park and of being unable to take the pressures of the top league.

If he can live with life at Rangers then we will have a good player and with two of his countrymen with him settling in to Scotland should not be an issue.

He has played on the left side of midfield and that could be where Pedro will deploy him since we have struggled for consistency in that position.

Are there better players in Mexico, absolutely, could we afford them, most likely not.



25 May 2017 17:16:04
Rangers transfer budget is 8m; top secret source.



25 May 2017 18:03:02
Not saying I believe you but that was the figure I was thinking I could be. But anyway is that Including what money we get from transfers or will that be extra on top?



25 May 2017 18:38:19
Not enough if we are going to challenge next year. Net £8m might do, as long as we get 3 or 4 mil back from offloading the dead wood



25 May 2017 19:36:07
A lot depends on the quality of players brought in on free transfers and for £450k / £500k.

If we secure the Portuguese centre back + Alves, and the Mexican attacking midfield player + the two Hearts players and the boy from Aberdeen and a striker + Weiss, and offload McKay, Halliday, Kiernan, Waghorn and Hodson then we should have a decent quality team for next season



25 May 2017 20:49:10
Why offload godson?



25 May 2017 20:49:35
Why offload hodson?



25 May 2017 20:58:46
Is the godson signing 😳?



25 May 2017 21:39:10
Tails 1873, Because Hodson is not good enough. He is a mediocre defender and non existent as an attacking fullback. Assuming we sign Patterson and retain Tavernier we have two better right backs and with Wallace and the young lad we have two good left backs. Better that we cash in on Hodson and use the money for positions we need.

If we sell Tavernier for £1.25m then we can most likely acquire a good back up player for less than what we can get for Hodson.



25 May 2017 21:49:26
Never let the team down anytime I'v seen him, I'd say tavernier has let us down more by nt being where he's meant to be at times, I'd get rid of tavernier and keep hodson. i like my defenders to defend, something sadly lacking this season, just my humble opinion



25 May 2017 21:51:22
Hodson is an international, how many internationals have tab and Patterson played?



25 May 2017 21:53:31
Tav sorry predictive text lol



25 May 2017 23:27:47
Paterson has 5 caps for Scotland, so I suppose that'll make him an international player too.



26 May 2017 00:04:19
Tails1873 Hodson gave away the goal against St Johnstone in the 1-1 game at Ibrox. He didn't play too many games so hasn't really had as many opportunities to mess up.



26 May 2017 16:21:52
Get rid of hodson



26 May 2017 22:55:57
If Hodson wasn't an Ulster man he would not be rated. He isn't that great a defender. If we can get a dent price for him then it will be an excellent deal for Rangers.



26 May 2017 20:52:56
Bears. I would be happy if we brought in 5 quality players Alves Jack Weiss a striker and either another defender or midfielder. If any loans or freebies come fair enough but money spent on at least 4-5 players and I know Jack is a freebie so any morr of that quality then fine although I don't really want Caixinha to go for any more SPFL players maybe Moult or Boyce edpecially if players go other way. don't think Henegin is good enough but whoever Caixinha brings in I will support 100% and I think most will we must give the man a chance. WWould like to see Knox Gauld coming to Ibrox.



25 May 2017 17:03:47
Jamie walker is looking at houses in Glasgow because he wants to move to rangers heard from a source and his agent wants him to come as well because he is a rangers man.



25 May 2017 18:16:30
Jamie is a hearts man through and through and i grew up with him in westerhailes. Its a fact he want to go to england and i can tell yiu now he's on holiday.



25 May 2017 18:16:42
His agent would want him to move so he gets a cut of any fee.



25 May 2017 21:51:36
Believe what you want I'm not saying it's 100 percent going to happen but he wants to come before he heads down to England



25 May 2017 22:04:41
Yep he's in Dubai the now .



25 May 2017 22:30:52
Defo hearts fan



26 May 2017 00:24:08
Just because he's a hearts fan that dosent mean he can't want to sign for us there is reasons behind it



26 May 2017 14:20:37
Dunno why people are disagreeing way me that he's no in Dubai go check his instagram lol



26 May 2017 18:52:14
he will double his wage coming to us and better his chances of moving down south to a half decent club



25 May 2017 10:01:02
My mum works with a bookies and a guy came in and put a grand on Jack to Celtic she said she didn't have a price for him so I dunno if the bet went through. What's everyone's thoughts on that?



25 May 2017 10:09:01
That's interesting.



25 May 2017 10:24:02
Well my Bookies said that a boy came in and put 2k on Leicester to win the Champions league. Boy even said he inside info they would win the BPL aswell. Poor bastard lost 2k.



25 May 2017 11:07:19
My thoughts are that your maw is talkin pish



25 May 2017 13:06:55
'My mum' brilliant 😂😂😂😂



25 May 2017 14:31:00
@motherwellbear I'm a teenager I'm a teenager mate gimme a break 😂 why would I make that up. I just thought it was worth a post



25 May 2017 14:48:01
Yer maw sells the Avon. 🤔



25 May 2017 18:29:50
Reasonable bet?

Remember they have a record of buying Ranger's targets - remember Scott Allan?



25 May 2017 19:30:57
No one remembers Scott Allan! Threw his career away



25 May 2017 20:38:59
Scott who?



25 May 2017 22:32:37
Exactly scott who! Deserves everything he gets? TRAITOR



26 May 2017 07:17:23
Scott Allen still better than our current midfield



26 May 2017 07:30:24
@onlyshowaround how could anyone have inside info on Leicester winning the BPL?



25 May 2017 08:44:46
We have apparently taken Fabio Cardoso on trial. If we want the player it is believed it would cost us around £1.2mil.



25 May 2017 10:31:26
You sure you didn't read the headline wrong? "Rangers Trail Portuguese Defender"



25 May 2017 11:34:55
Nobody costing that amount goes on trial



25 May 2017 12:34:57
Fraser, Probably. I still haven't woken up properly yet.



25 May 2017 14:20:16
I'll let you off this time :)



26 May 2017 09:44:19
Cardoso is a decent player.



25 May 2017 07:37:54
According to reports in mexico we are signing mexican midfielder carlos pena from chivas.



25 May 2017 10:44:55
I'll drink to that. Hopefully any deal doesn't end up on the rocks.



25 May 2017 10:47:19
From what I've read about Carlos Pena I think he would be a very good signing. Tough, Latin American midfielder and good on the ball and alongside Rossiter and Kranjcar it sounds great!



25 May 2017 12:08:53
Kranjcar is not the answer. Good squad player but he'll get injured again.



25 May 2017 12:29:35
Apparently not with chivas and just signed with Leon so I call NAW



25 May 2017 12:37:23
WeAreRangers, He is on loan at Leon.



25 May 2017 12:40:55
would love pena to come n shove brown about



25 May 2017 14:25:48
Aye, if he comes he'll earn a Royal Salute.



25 May 2017 16:51:09
This is one I'd like us to see get over the line £1.25m shows at least a glimmer the board are willing to step up for international players



25 May 2017 16:56:44
He's a 5'8 unknown, its this type of transfer (if true) that gives me the fear.



25 May 2017 19:39:01
He's not an unknown in Mexico and how many of our current players are known there. Indeed, how many of our own players are known outside os Scotland!



26 May 2017 07:46:33
Ive never heard of him, is he any good? What position does he play? Hope he's not another midfielder.



26 May 2017 08:41:23
Seen this also been on fox sports in Mexico. Apparently a done deal. Could be our Mexican gattuso



26 May 2017 18:15:30
Couldn't settle at his current club so they loaned him back to where he came from. If he can't settle in his own country I'm a wee bit concerned about him trying to settle in sunny Scotland.
