Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


04 Aug 2016 19:30:38
@andynewportPA on twitter On PA wires: Rangers could ditch controversial Puma strip released without their consent and replace it with a new kit midway through season. club supposedly looking into an SPFL rule that clubs can change strip midway through season .



04 Aug 2016 21:42:53
I'm sure fat Mike has something to do with them?



04 Aug 2016 22:01:18
Bigtrfc, I posted on here several weeks ago that rangers were in advanced negotiations with under armour to replace puma as our new kit manufacturers, under armour tonight blundered and actually tweeted when asked about becoming rangers new kit makers, that the new rangers kit is coming soon and to watch this space, its now looking very likely that we'll be changing our kits and manufacturers in the middle of the season once we find out and get the go ahead from the scottish governing body to do it, it looks increasing likely that under armour have secured rangers to now make our kits.



05 Aug 2016 00:17:04
I hope this is true. I know Tottenham have sponsorship with them. maybe warns put a word in. i know that not anything to do with him but hope it true. and we get decent profits on the kits.



05 Aug 2016 08:08:24
They then retracted the statement and said its was a "negative". Could be a blunder.

Again though we'd breach the retail agreement, someone correctly pointed out on twitter that Chelsea done this quite some time ago and this resulted in them losing a legal battle and quite some money.

To be fair Ashley is breaching it by selling unlicenced goods, but its upto the lawyers to point this out. There has to be something in the pipeline.



05 Aug 2016 13:06:52
I don't think the courts like Ashley or the way he conducts his business and could favour for us in a court case!
that being said we now have to be carefull as he likes to go to court the fat rat!

does anyone know if the contract stipulates that his franchise must be able to sell a certain amount or we could terminate the deal and/ or if that's the loophole in the spfl rules that state if retail transaction fall well short of what is expected then we can change our strips?



05 Aug 2016 15:57:14
Blunder by under armour or "early" marketing to gazing
Puma launch?



05 Aug 2016 16:13:10
Saw this too. I heard the under armour rumour a while ago never thought much of it but seeing as they have tweeted they will start selling Rangers kits soon its safe to say king will never be beaten. No Surrender!



06 Aug 2016 13:15:20
I thought SD could nt use our logo after previous court case?



04 Aug 2016 17:58:46
Warburton said he doesn't know anything about us wanting senderos.



04 Aug 2016 19:59:12
people are just mentioning every free agent.



04 Aug 2016 21:13:01
Its the bloody media they just take the piss constantly.



05 Aug 2016 09:28:36
It's mostly agents, if one of their clients is unemployed or due to be made a free agent imminently they will comb potential job opportunity's throughout football. One tactic used by agents is to inform media of non existent interest, the media then report this and then sit back and gauge the reaction of fans or entice said football club into thinking their client is interested. Media will still report it as information received whether it is true or not.



05 Aug 2016 16:16:27
The wait goes on then. May aswell not sign a central defender at all.



04 Aug 2016 10:43:41
Back in for ball on a permanent. If true, can't see it not going through as he loves us just as much as we love him.



04 Aug 2016 11:09:11
He'd be a terrific signing. Warburton knows him from a young age, was here last season and is a fan favourite.

If he's the only centre back signed it would be a slight problem given that his best last season was at CDM but he's young enough that he could develop into a very important player defensively. Hope we'd get one from England top bunch on loan though.

If he played the Cup Final, we win the Cup Final, and we'd be in Europe right now. For a guy that was 20 at the time, that's great praise.



04 Aug 2016 11:31:48
Agree, with most of what folks are saying - but how many games did he actually start last year? Should we really be pinning our hopes on a 20 year old, who has never played even half a season with anybody?



04 Aug 2016 11:41:40
Not the answer at centre back for me. Just like Tottenham found with Eric Dier we found that his best position was in the holding role in midfield as well and we have Barton, Crooks and Rossiter now who can play there. Having said all that, he's a better option than the other 2 who have had plenty of chances.



04 Aug 2016 11:58:53
I like the boy but he's not the answer. He couldn't break up the pairing of Wilson and Kiernan and they were rank rotten in defence so why are people thinking he's he answer now. MW seems to see a player in Kiernan and it would take someone specialty remove him.

Additionally I heard the time are reporting we have offered a contract to senderos.



04 Aug 2016 12:04:03
Is it true that Waghorn is out for 3 months?



04 Aug 2016 12:20:49
THATS A GOOD POINT RICK
he is better than the "3" we have just now I don't rate hill and think he will do more on the training ground rather than playing the actual games which is weird as we have a stalwart in big davie who should be teaching our younger lads!
but I would welcome a crooks and ball centre halfs before Wilson and kiernan.



04 Aug 2016 16:30:28
Totally disagree, as wee Barry says, Wilson is going to be a great player.



04 Aug 2016 16:34:07
papers down here saying leeds utd going in for dom ball if they fail to get jack hobbs from nottingham forest.



04 Aug 2016 16:34:18
Ball was playing on all games we shipped 3 goals in at end of season He was also present when we beat Celtic 2-2 penalties but there were still glaring defence issues thing Roberts should have scored if he wasn't a Diddy and their goals both header and shot were easily achieved no marking at all WITH BALL!

Too much to expect of him we actually need a tall dominant CB more than any other player I personally hope Crooks might be a lucky signing for us and solve this problem

I like Ball far more as midfielder.



05 Aug 2016 06:47:12
Ball definitely 1 for the future, but is he the answer now. no!



04 Aug 2016 09:54:27
Reports in the Times we are in talks with Senderos for a 1 year deal.



04 Aug 2016 10:16:46
Seen this rumour on a few sites already this morning and I don't know about him just yet as been pretty injury prone last 2-3 years but solid enough centre half!



04 Aug 2016 10:21:19
Would much rather we took Ball on a permanent deal. Spurs willing to sell!



04 Aug 2016 10:26:00
Why does everyone go on about ball he's a player we had last year in th championship and couldn't hold down a regular place in our team never mind at centre back! Crazy.



04 Aug 2016 10:26:49
Not sure if he'd be a hit or a Philippe flop.



04 Aug 2016 10:45:45
Career average 15 games a season. No.



04 Aug 2016 11:05:41
Would hope we could get better than him. Dnt really rate him at all and really dnt think he is what we need.



04 Aug 2016 11:52:02
I think Senderos would be a good signing. We need a big strong guy at the back. I also agree with KPnuts10 about Dom Ball. He was decent last year but he would not be a guaranteed first team starter. Someone mentioned on here that he was a fans favourite last season . he wasnt really. Waghorn, Tav, McKay, Holt, Wallace and possibly even Halliday would be considered as fan favourites over Ball any day.



04 Aug 2016 12:23:03
never heard of him but then again I hadn't heard of waggy tav windass crooks before so i'd be happy is big davie is happy.



04 Aug 2016 17:07:03
And Senderos was a very good defender with Arsenal and Switzerland, don't know how you can't have heard of him?



04 Aug 2016 17:32:48
He's played for a few top teams including Arsenal Valencia and AC Milan as well as world cup and euros with the Swiss.



04 Aug 2016 10:05:25
Dk if true or not but from where I'm from I'm hearing Gabi Agbonlahor could be joining for 2 mil as warburton could be putting a bid in before game on Saturday, but much money but is a quality player and can see him taking the no.7 shirt.



04 Aug 2016 10:24:10
This is complete rubbish. If we had any money to spend we would have done so already. He's mince anyway, wouldn't take him for free.



04 Aug 2016 11:33:12
and another one who needs 30 yards to work in - - in most games we DO NOT HAVE THAT SPACE!



04 Aug 2016 12:25:41
think the guy would be a flop up here plus has a really baqd attitude and cost way too much on salary.



04 Aug 2016 12:36:20
I think he's past it he's looked over weight and lazy in the past few seasons
And he's got abit of an attitude so not sure if that will go down well a CB should be our Main focus if we r spending money.



05 Aug 2016 09:03:48
Its not a speedy striker/ winger we need but a Mols/ Negri style of CF. Someone who links well but can be explosive in the box.



03 Aug 2016 23:42:45
My taxi driver on the way up the road said he's been hearing Lukasz Podolski on loan. Don't know what to think of it and no body is reporting it but its another name to add to the growing list i suppose.



04 Aug 2016 06:14:23
He's just signed with Brazilian club.



04 Aug 2016 07:28:17
He's in Brazil on holiday has extended break due to being in the German squad at euro's still a Galatasaray player, really don't think we have chance but would be brilliant if it happened.



04 Aug 2016 08:50:23
The Times reporting we have offered Phillipe Senderos a one year deal. Awaiting his response.



04 Aug 2016 09:16:36
New report today that gers are to offer Senderos (Philip) a one year deal. Solid but not the quickest.



04 Aug 2016 10:05:39
Very injury prone but would take a gamble on him for 1 season. Lacking pace which is a problem but is more physical and better in the air than what we currently have.

Overall not that exciting but could do a job for time being and might even prove himself if given the chance.



04 Aug 2016 12:41:09
the no pace thing has me worried mate as I think that's what we a seriously lacking in that area.
