Rangers rumours 5

31 Aug 2026 14:27:57
Any truth in us being linked with Motherwells Longelo?

Sacha Tavolieri linking us to him.

31 Aug 2026 14:56:26
He can also play lw, was good against us last season, he won't cost a great deal either, Beef, I'd be all for it.

31 Aug 2026 15:04:43
Tavolieri also linking us with Ibrahima Balde of Rodez AF striker.

31 Aug 2026 15:05:28
Would be happy with this if true.

31 Aug 2026 15:05:32
Don't disagree, He and Penrice would be good options if Rommens is away.

31 Aug 2026 15:25:50
He's the one I wanted at LB. Depends on Rommens though and bigger priorities elsewhere.

31 Aug 2026 15:33:03
Would take Longelo in a heartbeat! Find it amazing given the performances of the Motherwell manager and players last season that we didn't try harder to get Askou and co.

31 Aug 2026 16:22:24
Think longevity would be a shrewd signing, I'm surprised he's not been mentioned before.

31 Aug 2026 17:21:18
Beef, I like Motherwell left back Manny Longelo
But we've absolutely no interest in signing him. 🤔🇬🇧

31 Aug 2026 18:35:40
This has legs.

31 Aug 2026 20:34:09
Says who Walter, you?

01 Sep 2026 12:14:01
Longelo was really good against us last season, if Rommens is away, take him.

31 Aug 2026 13:46:36
Decent Source:

Miovski away to turkey
Raskin away to the prem
Cerny agreed
Premier League midfielder on loan

31 Aug 2026 15:07:38
Very dubious about 0-0 with this type of info. 🤣🤣🫣🫣

31 Aug 2026 15:24:57
Agree, True Blue. Smell Timothy there
Cerny ain't coming.

31 Aug 2026 15:27:25
There's about 100 sources with completely different stories regarding Cerny to us. 😂

31 Aug 2026 15:47:55
Everybody was a 0-0 poster.

31 Aug 2026 15:49:02
Or maybe the guys never had info to post until today?

31 Aug 2026 19:45:32
Wishy was attempting a bit of humour.

31 Aug 2026 13:17:21
Rumours at work today.
Raskin out on loan with obligation to buy.
Souttar out on loan with option to buy.
Neil has offers from EFL but it could possibly be January before he leaves.
Nobody has met club valuations for Barron, Fernandez, Aasgaard and Miovski.


Rangers also hoping to move on Naderi, McCausland & Cameron in any capacity as squad is too bloated.
Depending on outgoings, we are looking at bringing in a couple of loans - CH, Midfielder & winger.
Some changes might not happen until January window due to time restraints.

31 Aug 2026 14:28:22
Sacha reporting we are interested in Motherwell full back Longelo.

31 Aug 2026 14:34:39
Interesting regarding Neil, I hope we keep him as I think he'll come good.

31 Aug 2026 14:36:19
Interesting re Souttar contract expires end of season.

31 Aug 2026 14:37:29
Longelo has looked some player last and this season, and, to be fair, I know he's 29, but Charles Cook has also stood out.

31 Aug 2026 14:39:13
Wonder if the Longelo interest is due to interest in Rommens? Was it not Club Brugge who were linked a few weeks ago?

31 Aug 2026 14:39:45
If we can't get a cash offer for Raskin, I'd just keep him. No point letting our best player go to possibly get a fee a year later.

31 Aug 2026 14:42:25
Soutter option to buy? He is OOC at end of season.

31 Aug 2026 14:47:54
I really don't understand why we've not sold Souttar and Raskin.

Souttar - signed extension for what, double his wage - thought this was to ensure we got £s when he left, but now it seems there are reasons he won't go, and reasons he's not in squad.

Raskin had a good WC and is a good solid mf player, and imo would shine in the right team, yet no one is that interested to pay what we're looking? If you look at some of the figures being paid for players who are no better, no worse right now.

I just don't get why no one has come in with the £s.

31 Aug 2026 14:48:06
That Longelo looks a great player - ripped us apart last season.

31 Aug 2026 14:55:00
No problem with an obligation to be fair LM, long as it covers us on fair play over time duration, we have money to bring in what's needed, really need players out door though, especially with less games to be played this season.

31 Aug 2026 15:00:50
P.S. The above came from multiple people.

31 Aug 2026 15:05:00
Hami, he can also play lw.

31 Aug 2026 15:05:43
That's where he's looked more dangerous any time I've watched him.

31 Aug 2026 15:27:55
Not being cheeky, but how can squad be bloated if we bring in loans to compensate for outgoings?

31 Aug 2026 15:37:45
I'd guess we haven't sold Raskin or Souttar for either, nobody is interested in them, the valuations have not been met, or the players themselves are not interested in the club looking to buy them?

31 Aug 2026 15:49:13
Rangers hold an option of a further year past this one on Souttar but he'll leave permanently this window.

31 Aug 2026 15:50:04
Bar, it's easy, if we get 8 out and 3 in, the squad reduces.

31 Aug 2026 16:16:52
We are looking to offload Naderi and Miovski, and we are bringing in Kelsy, so we are going to go from having 4 strikers, one too many, to having 2 strikers, which would be one too few. Again, makes no sense.

31 Aug 2026 16:26:44
No chance Naderi going anywhere this season!!

31 Aug 2026 16:28:14
Dadab, Longelo is only 25 years old, not 29, my friend. 🤔 I doubt very much, anyway, that we'll sign another left back tbh. 🤔

31 Aug 2026 16:47:38
Sir Walter, I was referring to Charles Cook as the 29 year old, I think he would do us a job as well as Longelo.

31 Aug 2026 17:23:00
Sorry for the mix up, Dadab, and we have absolutely no interest in Longelo anyway mate. 🤔 🇬🇧

01 Sep 2026 15:52:50
Souttar sitting on his hands playing dumb. He's going to run his contract down. He's only in it for the money. Absolute fraud of a defender.

30 Aug 2026 23:55:12
Reason for Souttar not been sold is he was not to keen on the clubs who showed interest he thinks he should be playing at a higher level ie lower end of Premier League or top end of Championship he's been wanting to play down south for about 18 months

31 Aug 2026 01:41:17
More like Tim Min Su. 🤣

31 Aug 2026 07:14:27
Don't insult our new South Korean left winger Min Su Kim, Blue89. 😁 🇬🇧

31 Aug 2026 08:42:11
Not a rumour, just my opinions.

Souttar has to go if we can get anything at all for him. He hasn't been anything near consistent enough and does not have the qualities of a CB that we need. He's average at best, and if we can get any decent money for him then take it.

Raskin has never achieved anything at the club. He is a disruptive influence and he blows hot and cold. His qualities would be best suited to either a team who does not have the pressure or ours or a team with superstars around him whereby he is less pressured to be a game changer.

Gassama is just not good enough and while he may be a star in the making, he needs to learn a lot. His final third decision making is awful and while he sometimes has flashes of brilliance, he is just not consistent enough and he is very greedy with the ball to the team's detriment.

I'd have no issue if he delivered more, but he doesn't.

Aasgaard does not have the mentality for the club, and he is another highly talented player who might just never be able to shine at Rangers due to his weak mentality.

Fernandez has to go. Whatever he is, he's not a CB. If there is a quality defender in there, then he has to give his ego up for good and show some humility. He came to us as a nothing effectively and he has been catapulted into the limelight as he scored a few headers. If we get anything over £10m for him then I'd take it and run.

These are the 5 I'd hope we can move on this window to be replaced, and there could be big money between them. Barron, Cameron etc, are all surplus also and we need to clear the decks of all the dead weight.

31 Aug 2026 09:19:52
RFC, the goal Aberdeen got chopped, he was standing watching it. Compare that to the one the Aberdeen player slid in to stop Shankland putting it into an empty net. He just doesn't have the defend at all cost attitude unless the ball is right at him or in the air.

31 Aug 2026 09:29:44
RFC, so all these players are terrible in your opinion but u want mega money for all?

31 Aug 2026 09:32:58
SWS, he was insulting the 0-0 poster, not our players. Still no need for it right enough.

31 Aug 2026 09:46:25
I know JFM, that's the reason I put the smiling 😁 face, my friend. 👍 🇬🇧

31 Aug 2026 10:46:07
The Fernandez last season was much better than what we have seen this season. I think he has been distracted by transfer rumours. If he stays past this window, I think we will see a better player after the window closes. But he must be doing stuff that McInnes likes, as Nciala has not had a look in even when we were short or playing poor.

31 Aug 2026 10:59:20
Get Souttar gone.

One more cb in, and defence shaping up ok tbh with Godfrey back.

31 Aug 2026 11:09:48
I know many will hate this, especially all the Rangers das out there (and I was surprised too), but Fernandez's stats are still really good. Even though he fails the eye test because he strolls about. I also think he's actually the best passer at the club.
I would like to see him show a bit more desire in stopping things.


I'll never forget that Motherwell game under Gerrard when we absolutely battered them, think it was about 5 or 6 nil at the time and Motherwell scored and you could see the whole team were raging to have let in a goal. Wish we had that mindset now.

31 Aug 2026 11:21:55
Absolutely spot on, Dado. He got away with one, but I'd still have been absolutely raging with him if I'd made that double save. Can have all the great stats you want, but it's also about the important moments that count.

31 Aug 2026 11:26:10
I thought Fernandez looked a lot more on it yesterday tbh.

31 Aug 2026 11:52:51
SamOfOrange, they aren't Rangers standard players. They could, and probably would, succeed at other clubs with less expectations and at clubs who can afford to carry a passenger. There are clubs who will pay good money for these players as they may meet a certain criteria, but they are not the standard that we can or should accept.

31 Aug 2026 11:58:09
Fernandez's passing stats can be attributed to the amount of passes back to the gk or across the defence. There's a real lack of urgency with him, and I really think it slows down our momentum sometimes. He has all the attributes to be a top player and I really hope he does for us, but just now he gives me the fear.

31 Aug 2026 12:27:22
I was meaning more his defensive stats, Gal. For the slowness and passing forward, he's usually waiting on midfielders to move into space, which they don't. I also think he tries to draw the other team's players towards him out of position as well, to try to make space to pass since nobody moves.

31 Aug 2026 12:50:45
If you actually look at Fernandes' passing, only 55% of his passes are the safer ones which retain possession (sideways, back to keeper). Not surprisingly, the success rate is high (94.5%) for those. But the other 45% of his passing game is progressive, and he is remarkably successful with those as he makes 73.3%. I think this is another case of where people think their eyes tell the truth when they don't.

Overall his success rate is 85 %, which is remarkably high for any player, never mind a CB.
The fact he doesn't sprint around at top headless chicken speed means fans think he is lazy and indifferent. Funnily, the same complaint as with Bajrami and Aasgaard. Perhaps Scottish football isn't for those type of players and we should stick to signing Gogic.

31 Aug 2026 12:52:31
Wish Fernandez would start attacking the ball again in both boxes.

31 Aug 2026 12:56:40
Fernandez made 3 horrendous passes against Aberdeen that were nowhere near their intended target and put the defence under undue pressure as Aberdeen counter attacked.

31 Aug 2026 12:58:52
Rangers, who actually is currently in our squad good enough? But, ok, we sell all these players, our assets if you will, and replace them with who? Please don't tell me Cameron and the likes or players from Hearts ect.

Andy Halliday said it spot on, you still need ability if you want Rangers fans who get it and are average footballers go get Halliday your still not going to win anything.

31 Aug 2026 13:06:02
I'll start with saying that Fernandez has had a poor start to the season, nobody can deny that, but the criticism is ott. To say that we should sell him for big money because he is not Rangers standard makes no sense. Part of the reason that he seems to hold on to the ball too long is that there is a lack of movement in front of him, and players making themselves available for the pass, so the option is to kick it aimlessly forward or keep possession.

His defending has been a bit more like it in the last two games, and yesterday he headed away countless dangerous crosses in and around our box. I would sell him if those big fees are offered, but I wouldn't be chasing him out the door like some want to do.

31 Aug 2026 13:35:37
There are multiple reasons why Souttar has not yet left the club and why he has not yet been selected this season.

I don't believe it's 100% guaranteed that he will leave.

31 Aug 2026 15:07:13
That's wild Souttar expecting to play in EPL.

He'd be lucky to get a fans in SPL.

31 Aug 2026 15:51:56
Kaiser. he didn't get away with one though. the player fouled and was then offside.

If Fernandez had went to the ball then maybe Nesbit would have been played onside and then chances are the goal would have stood.

01 Sep 2026 15:35:01
Makanya was guilty of ball watching also at the Aberdeen goal. He froze like a statue. Watch it back Dado. The defence has a lot of work to do.

30 Aug 2026 21:56:15
Which day can we expect Kelsy to be holding a scarf or is it not happening? Any other rumours of who may be coming in? Duberry and Cerny dead. No center backs rumoured?

31 Aug 2026 01:42:16
Patience McCnor. He's on his way. The scarf will be aloft by the end of Tuesday.

31 Aug 2026 06:29:13
The Kelsey transfer has been confirmed during Portland's live match last night on MLS TV.

We just need to wait for the scarf pic.

31 Aug 2026 13:09:36
I don't think we'll buy anybody else. Maybe get a couple of loans from England in between their window closing and ours closing two days later. Once the EPL teams announce their squads, there could be some players looking at not playing for 4 months.

Even in this day and age, there are still some players who actually want to play football, not just sit and pick up their wages.

31 Aug 2026 13:50:23
Wslgers, there's a new FIFA rule that states any player not registered in 25man squad could get their contracts ripped up if they choose to! Maybe a couple in on a free if FIFA stick to it.

31 Aug 2026 16:12:11
Not quite, 8Gazza8. There is a new FIFA/FIFPRO rule coming, but it doesn't mean anyone left out a 25-man squad can just rip up their contract. It's aimed at clubs deliberately freezing players out, isolating them or abusing registration rules to force them to leave. Even then, it's case by case, not automatic. The main changes don't come into force until January 2027 either.

31 Aug 2026 16:19:23
If it's a FIFA rule, somebody will likely offer them a bung and they will change it.

30 Aug 2026 21:46:52
I have a feeling Ferguson deal could happen 👀

30 Aug 2026 22:28:14
I'd expect it to happen if Raskin goes.

30 Aug 2026 22:36:32
Just don't see it, hope I'm wrong, but I think he's going to be the 2026 - 2030 Weiss.

30 Aug 2026 22:22:30
Yes but do you know it for a fact 👀👀🤣🤣

31 Aug 2026 12:23:28
I'm hearing if Raskin doesn't leave, he is signing a year extension with us holding an option for a further year, with a release clause. Not sure of the figure, but hopefully we get what we are hoping for.

31 Aug 2026 13:11:48
I think, if Raskin leaves, most of the money will be swallowed up, covering the cost of signings already made. Can't see us going for Ferguson unless we get a good bit more for Raskin that Bologna want for Ferguson.

30 Aug 2026 19:49:17
Too many folks claim to be ITK and frankly are just attention seekers, there's a few that do post that may have contacts inside the infrastructure and can only say so much, which is to be respected. This is a rumours page, so knocking down or blasting folks posts is shocking tbh.
Miovski's Mrs hates being here, she is pregnant again and doesn't want to raise her kids in Scotland, that is a Fact, whether that has an influence on Bojan, I don't know.

There are bids on the table for Gassama, Raskin, Aasgaard. That much I do know for a fact. Other players I haven't heard much. BTW, I I work at the stadium so I do hear a bit .

30 Aug 2026 20:09:55
So Del just talking s*** to media? Doubt it.

30 Aug 2026 20:12:38
Blue, thanks for the laugh, u come on to knock itk, then tell us how much u know.

Every u say has been on here for a few months.

30 Aug 2026 20:13:31
Wow. 🇬🇧

30 Aug 2026 20:21:31
My word, another who thinks it's Rangers facts and not Rangers rumours, take a day off, contribute or don't, there is no need to constantly have a go at others. 👍 👍

30 Aug 2026 20:25:59
So, you work for Rangers, as did I, so you just ignore the confidentiality clause that you are made to sign??

30 Aug 2026 20:27:49
No-one knows who to believe on here, until they get a track record and become a reputable poster. This goes with consistent posts & accurate posts.

For someone who claimed their Mrs was Miovski's PT one week, then their ex-Mrs the next, I'm a bit sceptical, but wouldn't say you're an attention seeker, however, I'd definitely remember if my Mrs was my Mrs, or my Ex :) haha.

(Light-hearted banter btw, don't go all soppy bs and get rattled by it).

30 Aug 2026 20:28:45
That's us told - Fact.

30 Aug 2026 20:30:51
"Too many people claim to be in the know and are attention seekers."

Now let me claim to be in the know and attention seek. 😂

30 Aug 2026 20:49:29
It's a rumours site, Blue, whether they are in the know or hear it elsewhere, they are entitled to post.

30 Aug 2026 20:49:45
Whether it's rumours or fact, or turns out wrong, it raises discussion and keeps us all guessing and interested. That's what the forum is for.

30 Aug 2026 20:56:48
We know you love a good fact too, Ehl.

30 Aug 2026 20:58:13
Unless you're Derek McInnes, I'll take that "fact" as nonsense, unless of course you're saying that our manager is telling bare faced lies to the supporters re a bid for Raskin. And don't come in in 3 days when he's sold and say I told you so, as earlier today I believe McInnes when he says there has been no concrete bid tabled.

Unlike you though, he didn't say "FACT" after it. I never noticed, but he may actually have had his fingers crossed behind his back, which of course excuses any lies he's telling.

30 Aug 2026 21:00:15
Works in the stadium, food kiosk by chance? 🤯

30 Aug 2026 21:01:45
Christ on a bike!

30 Aug 2026 21:06:18
Glad you came on Blue Andy, I've been looking for you since you over charged me for 2 pies and a Coke Zero in the West Enclosure at the St Mirren game.

30 Aug 2026 21:10:48
Canter, u made me laugh there.

30 Aug 2026 20:39:04
All of the ITK posters should meet outside Ibrox for a scrap. Fight it out!

There can be only one!

30 Aug 2026 21:26:22
My mate is Rafa Banitez - fact!

30 Aug 2026 21:35:50
Johnjo, that just isn't true, John gets good information, maybe not as much as in the past, which is a very good thing as not very much gets out.

30 Aug 2026 21:34:36
Difference is John is a reputable poster, you not so much.

30 Aug 2026 21:38:42
I am not ITK - Fact.

30 Aug 2026 21:40:42
That is indeed a fact, BBJ.

As is the Fact that you are VP of the Gassama Fan Club.

30 Aug 2026 21:56:54
Am not ITK, but have a little connection in the agent market through my Mrs dad. Anything they hear on Rangers I hear and try to share, even if it isn't much. You don't need direct connections at the club to hear something. But, aye, anyway, you know something and others don't!

30 Aug 2026 22:17:21
Welcome, Blue 72
Not sure what to say about this post.

Gazza stole my thunder and now that's two facts. Gazza and myself are not ITK. Fact!

So as in the mould of your text.


Please note, that's this notice you are now noticing is not worth noticing.

Mm, is that a fact. 😁🤔

Sorry for the ribbing but the Fact! Brigade don't always do well on here.

30 Aug 2026 23:40:01
She's not pregnant, I cut her hair.

31 Aug 2026 00:13:44
He is growing on me, EHL, looks sharper and more dialed in lately, maybe the competition coming in has him wanting to try harder.

30 Aug 2026 23:50:29
So which is the FACT, does Mrs Miovski know your Mrs or ex Mrs?
You're not getting out the GFC now Bbj

31 Aug 2026 08:35:50
No need to have a go at the respected posters, but the fact is since the takeover the info has dried up for a lot of the guys that kept us up to date. We are all Gers (well, mostly lol) on here, let's try and remember that.

31 Aug 2026 08:43:14
He was more cold than hot for me, Bbj, last year, but I think he's had not too bad a start to the season without being outstanding. He seems to be more direct and a threat when running at defenders now, which we have only seen in glimpses beforehand.

I'd like to keep him, and hopefully he kicks on. He does seem to have more confidence under McInnes, and needs to shake off the grumbles from the stands, and go again if he loses the ball.

31 Aug 2026 08:07:41
This is getting out of hand folks, can we just clear up whether or not she is pregnant and/or does she get a perm?

31 Aug 2026 09:54:38
Nobody knows anything for a fact but I know for a fact. 🤦🤦🤦😂😂😂

31 Aug 2026 10:20:38
Come on here to have a dig, not a good start. Is your brush the same story as Fools and Horses?

31 Aug 2026 11:26:24
Here's another fact, a lot of grown men being very upset over who's the prized insider when we'll never be able to establish that as a fact is very schoolgirly.

It's all supposed to be fun, guys, & a bit of banter, let's not take ourselves too seriously.

31 Aug 2026 13:10:36
You contradict yourself twice in one post. 🤓 Fact.
