Rangers Rumours

15 Aug 2026 20:29:34
Group chat Rumour that Galatasaray are still talking to the club about signing Chermiti their hope is they get him on the cheap because of the injury.

15 Aug 2026 21:06:53
Sorry, but no chance a team is going to sign a player who is out injured for a year and then have to pay his wages for all that time (insurance won't cover a player who signs for a new club with a pre-existing injury before anyone suggests that).


So, that can be filed under total nonsense.
They may well still monitor him with a view to see how he gets in once back, but certainly nothing till then.

15 Aug 2026 21:07:31
Well they can have him for their original 22 million. Their transfer signings must be like ours.
Crocked.

15 Aug 2026 21:17:18
Gers, you're spot on there.

15 Aug 2026 21:56:31
Totally agree, this sounds like nonsense, but just thought I would see if it's going round other chats.

15 Aug 2026 22:10:56
Wow, just wow.

15 Aug 2026 22:30:23
Absolute crap!! No club is buying a player out for the season!!

16 Aug 2026 12:49:39
If they are serious, we have a right back and a centre back we would like to sell them.

15 Aug 2026 16:39:54
EHL, I can't find the reply you sent to someone earlier but did I read you think there are up to 13 players in discussions to leave?

Any surprises in there?
Any big fees mentioned?

15 Aug 2026 17:56:59
Raskin
Cameron
Souttar
Gassama
Aasgaard
Miovski
Sterling
Chukwuani
Barron
McCausland
Nsiala
Rommens

There's 12 that I could see going if right offers came in.

15 Aug 2026 18:11:06
Sell them all. Or give them away. Start again but only if we get proper recruitment in.

15 Aug 2026 18:30:48
East, just send your 9 digit cheque to the club and I am sure they will manage to grant your wish. Otherwise, welcome to the real world where we have to balance the books. Hasn't happened since we were relegated. In fact, not sure how many years it happened before that either.

15 Aug 2026 18:35:33
Will be very lucky to pull in £30m to £35m combined for that lot.

15 Aug 2026 18:56:03
I'd estimate 60 mil Teds, pal.

15 Aug 2026 19:03:33
Blue89, estimate until your heart is content. We will only get what any team wishes to pay for them.

15 Aug 2026 19:27:18
0 will leave!

15 Aug 2026 19:31:27
9 maybe 10 of them, I would agree with. Manager has a massive job sorting things out, I would guess maybe 5 or 6 of the list might go soon.

15 Aug 2026 20:22:53
Ted, you've literally estimated a figure yourself. 😂

15 Aug 2026 20:35:36
I agree that a number of the players on that list would be better off moving on. But we really need to get out of the cycle of wholesale changes every single summer.

15 Aug 2026 20:44:42
Fingers crossed, at least half of this list leave. We need another 5/6 minimum coming our way!

15 Aug 2026 22:29:53
You missed out Naderi.

15 Aug 2026 23:04:58
Less than half will leave.
They are on good money, they can't get elsewhere & they are so bad, no one else is interested.
Honesty can be sore at times!

16 Aug 2026 00:23:27
I'd be keeping and playing Cameron. The only guy to make runs into the box from midfield. Like Arfield (from Wish).

16 Aug 2026 02:42:16
Bar, of the ones that don't leave, we should try getting them out on loan as we would only be a % of their wages then, surely.

16 Aug 2026 18:32:08
There might be 13 possibly in talks to leave but there is no way 13 first team players leave now. Wouldn't be able to replace half of them

15 Aug 2026 17:04:22
Penrice announced by club. Not sure about this one but let's hope he hits the ground running.

15 Aug 2026 17:34:01
Should've been signed when he was at Livi imo.

15 Aug 2026 17:35:30
Why aren't you sure? He's come from arguably a better team than ours is currently, and he's a backup. Don't know what you're expecting.

15 Aug 2026 17:45:15
Another good bit of business.

I'm probably alone in this one, but really like how the squad is shaping up.

15 Aug 2026 17:45:56
He's a starter at present, Twisted Tonic.

15 Aug 2026 17:49:25
I'm with you there, EHL. Would really like a LW signed though.

15 Aug 2026 17:52:13
Should have been in weeks ago when it would have benefited us to have him. What's not to like about him, great delivery, SPFL experience and is a winner!

15 Aug 2026 17:54:26
Badly needing a mobile striker as well as a LW RB and another CB.
We need to add pace and agility in forward areas.

15 Aug 2026 17:56:16
Without adding three genuine quality players the squad is diabolical. If we get three good players who can impact a game then we'll do okay as a filler season.

15 Aug 2026 17:57:30
Penrice, knows the league, a natural lb and more than able left back. Loan fee £1m and option to buy, if he does well he's ours if he doesn't he's gone.
How on earth is this not a good signing?

15 Aug 2026 17:59:42
A couple of defenders, a left winger and a striker, and we'll be in a far better position. We have some promising players from what I've seen.

15 Aug 2026 18:00:40
You like how the squad is shaking up, Ehl? Don't have a competent rb, central defence is a bomb scare, every midfielder does the exact same thing, wingers who don't create, but Yokota, who's shattered after 55 minutes, and strikers who look like they've won a competition to play for us. The squad's an absolute shambles.

15 Aug 2026 18:03:15
Agreed, Ehl. Also, as well as a net positive on incomings, I think at the end of the window, we will look back on the guys who have left with some satisfaction.

15 Aug 2026 18:04:51
I think he will be a good signing. I also like the look of Drago, Pandev and Yokota.

Hopefully a few more to come in to add a bit of quality and hopefully we click soon. Need to get some points on the board on the league, and qualify for Conference League.

First up, need to stay in the cup!

15 Aug 2026 18:10:20
Ehl, I'm probably in agreement to a certain extent, but the injuries and results have taken the shine off any of the new players coming in.

The gauge at the end of the window - how many of our players walk into the team in the East End - I'm thinking, as it stands on performance - Raskin?

15 Aug 2026 18:22:11
I agree with you, Ehl. Some people don't get that it takes time. With the planned outgoings and a few coming in, I believe we'll be in decent shape in a few weeks. If the drama queens don't sack the board before then.

15 Aug 2026 18:22:53
The squads a riot, man.

15 Aug 2026 18:26:11
Bearsbear, Raskin was very poor on Thursday. In particular, his recurring problem of too much needless running was the major reason for our press not working. He is a top player in many ways, but you can easily see why he frustrates managers as he confuses personal effort with playing for the team.

15 Aug 2026 18:33:15
EHL, I agree to a certain extent.

I think what we've signed is the squad depth. The solid base, if you like.

What we're missing is the quality to sit atop that solid base.

We can debate long and hard why we've not got that quality in yet, but I think we're at least 5 starters short at this moment.



Might not get them all in this window.

We've had rotten luck also, during games, during transfers, and no doubt the Manager has made a couple of decisions in-game which haven't worked.

Need to get the heads down and work harder to get through it.

15 Aug 2026 18:39:23
Still need a creative CM & an Arfield type late runs into the box for my money. Another LW, ST, RB & CB. If all 5 could be starters that'd be good.

15 Aug 2026 18:55:18
James Penrice won't be a Rangers back up left back for me, he'll be our first choice left back going forward. 👍🇬🇧

15 Aug 2026 19:01:43
EHL, not alone in that. I think with the right additions before the end of the window we could have a good squad. I think we now need CB, RB, LW, 10, ST all quality starters and we could be in good shape.
Think Penrice was a great LWB at Hearts and we should have signed him start of last season. Now think LB is solid enough for the season. GK I think Padur is taking a lot of unfair criticism. CB we have 4 potential defenders that could do the job but in Fernandez, South African lad.

Godfrey and Sterling however have fitness concerns about last 2 so would like a CB to sure that up. RB I think we need to go sign a starter. CM I think again we have the quality needed. LW think we need a starter with Curtis as back up. 10 I think we need a starter with creativity. RW I think Yokota is our best signing so far. ST I think Shankland will come good but we need another with Chermiti injury.

15 Aug 2026 19:13:28
Gordon, that's why I put a question mark. So how can we expect to compete if we haven't got a single player who is better than our biggest rivals?

We must start to bring in 2 or 3 of that level.

15 Aug 2026 19:27:36
Like him as a player. I doubt Rommens gets back in the team now.

15 Aug 2026 19:33:03
100 percent agree with the comment regarding Raskin being a heedless chicken at times who compromises the team's pressing shape. Didn't wee Barry Barry or McCann say he tried to do everything himself, but they told him to focus on attacking the box, and it coincided with his best spell with us?

15 Aug 2026 19:48:16
Raskin was doing what he was instructed to do on Thursday night to chase and press the ball. They were all doing it and, as a result, we lost all shape. Watch Raskin when he is playing in a decent team and is asked to sit, he does it and does it well.

Last season, in the good run under Rohl, he and Barron were excellent together, dovetailing in midfield.

15 Aug 2026 21:50:47
I wish we had a left back in sooner. Especially with Rommens' injury record. Had a few niggles now. Maybe if we had decent competition for Rommens we wouldn't need to rely on him every week, and could rest him every now and again. Would probably help keep him fit in the long term.

16 Aug 2026 00:27:45
A striker who runs behind is needed and a baller in midfield who wants to dictate and play forward.

I'd hoped Rohl would try to get a Barca kid on loan (like Arteta).

We cannot control games. That said, I think DM wants us man for man and running about rather than controlling the ball. 😞

16 Aug 2026 00:34:23
Bazbear, why is it just Rangers that it takes time? It's just bs excuses.

15 Aug 2026 16:25:52
Sky are reporting that Penrice deal is done and he could play tomorrow.

15 Aug 2026 17:19:14
Ideal, surely he goes straight in.

15 Aug 2026 17:20:56
Hopefully he hits ground running. 🇬🇧

15 Aug 2026 22:02:26
If Clement was still here he'd have got a start in November with all that science carry on.

16 Aug 2026 00:35:08
If Clement was still here we wouldn't be out of Europa or 1 point out of 6 in the league.

16 Aug 2026 08:56:58
Was more making a point about how things worked n the background at that time. We would make a signing and it would take weeks to get him "integrated" into the team when other clubs would throw them straight in. I always felt Clement was single handedly doing too many jobs at that time, and things would have been different under a different regime.

Can recall you wanting rid of him and Gio and the rest. Now it seems to be McInnes turn after 4 games.

15 Aug 2026 15:52:47
Has anyone else heard we're closing in on a season long loan deal for the aston villa young serbian right back nedeljkovic 🤔 Seemingly the final hurdle to clear is the fee we're negotiating with villa for the option to buy at the end of the season 🤔

15 Aug 2026 16:16:19
Coops, never heard of him. Is he any good?

15 Aug 2026 16:18:53
Happy if it is a loan to buy, but does the boy not have injury history? Or was someone telling porkies?

15 Aug 2026 16:26:40
His name was mentioned as a possibility last week I'm sure.

15 Aug 2026 16:30:07
Some Villa fans are saying they'd rather keep the boy and let Cash go instead. Seems to have plenty of positive reviews. (Via Birmingham Live).

Also, my son-in-law is a huge Villa fan and he mentioned the possibility to me a few days ago.

15 Aug 2026 16:39:22
I would prefer Siquet over him as he looks better going forward. I think we need our RB and LB to be able to get beyond the wingers since we have inverted wingers who like to cut in.

15 Aug 2026 16:42:03
Hopefully this is us seeing movements now.

15 Aug 2026 16:48:46
Mad were going to have another back line full of loans. 😂😂

15 Aug 2026 16:56:20
Hopefully not.

Another sicknote, nowhere near ready for regular first team games.

Was linked last week.

15 Aug 2026 17:00:07
Never learn with loans. Yes, he may work out, but cmon.

15 Aug 2026 17:06:10
The only movement we will see is when someone goes to the toilet.

I'd be surprised if we get anyone in after Penrice.

15 Aug 2026 17:47:00
It's going to be loans from here on in. I wouldn't be spending any money on players that have been recommended by the current recruitment team.

15 Aug 2026 17:50:52
Well you're going to be surprised, bonesbear.

15 Aug 2026 17:53:27
So surely if he is injury prone and mainly as fans never approve of many signings a loan with option to buy is the best way to do these things. If he is injury prone or with any player they turn out to not be as good as we think or can't handle the pressure then we don't need to buy. Simple really.

15 Aug 2026 17:55:33
As long as we have the option to purchase, I have no issue with this, as I'm sick of developing other teams' players without us holding that option.

Guys is a brilliant wee player, but he has already had a couple of knee injuries, and his last one at Red Bull was a back injury, so not sure if he is just unlucky or prone to injury.

15 Aug 2026 18:48:50
Seen we were linked with the Aston Villa RB last week, think I posted it up.

Could be a good addition, well thought of.

15 Aug 2026 18:58:29
Wullie83, do you reckon there's any truth that we're closing in on the signing of Portland Timbers striker Kevin kelsy mate 🤔

15 Aug 2026 21:16:41
Wullie, how many more do you think?

16 Aug 2026 00:59:02
Or we just don't sign them on loan at all or buy them, Angus.

15 Aug 2026 14:26:53
Are we going for the lad from Portland Timbers or is it paper talk again on the wind up?

15 Aug 2026 16:56:37
We've bid.

They want more.

15 Aug 2026 17:06:29
Papertalk.

15 Aug 2026 21:12:58
We are.

15 Aug 2026 13:50:14
I see we're being linked with South Korean left winger Min-Su Kim. 🤔 Don't know anything about him tbh or how much he'd cost. 🤔

15 Aug 2026 15:13:34
I think this one may happen.

15 Aug 2026 15:13:16
The way our recruitment is going I think we end up with Sum Ding Wong!

15 Aug 2026 15:47:08
Linked with a few good European sides as well as us, if he has any sense, he'll go elsewhere, unfortunately.

15 Aug 2026 15:48:12
We will end up with nae-wan in.

15 Aug 2026 15:55:17
What other good European clubs are also chasing Min Su Kim, Mj88rfc. 🤔

15 Aug 2026 16:00:20
Sir Walter thinks Lyon are in for him as well.

15 Aug 2026 16:03:09
Superb Amatosboots. 👏

15 Aug 2026 16:06:05
Fenerbahce and Ajax also interested.

15 Aug 2026 16:06:14
Does this mean Gassama is going to be sold? We don't need 3 LW.

15 Aug 2026 16:18:04
Blue89 thinks Curtis needs to go out on loan for another season, then let go of Gassama. We are desperate for a LW and another RW.

15 Aug 2026 16:26:51
Curtis needs to be played more for us. He probably has the best potential in the club and changes games when he comes.

15 Aug 2026 16:55:27
Curtis is currently not good enough. He needs to be loaned again. Good potential though.

15 Aug 2026 17:01:07
Curtis, at this moment, is not required standard as a winger in the 10 position maybe, but he isn't a winger.

15 Aug 2026 17:07:40
Who-flung-dung is probably the level we will sign if the boy had other offers.

15 Aug 2026 17:17:29
I'm delighted we're finally looking at this market.

At least, if nothing else, they will give you commitment and work ethic.

Sadly, missing from half the wannabe superstars that have won nowt that play fr us.

15 Aug 2026 17:56:53
This market? The lad is at Girona in Spain lol.

15 Aug 2026 20:37:05
Why tf would you put Curtis out on loan? Are you not watching that rubbish we are starting.

15 Aug 2026 21:29:31
Heard we where priced out of the north Korean

Fee to high
