The Summer 2022 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

[Alex Venters]

That is an incredible comment to make about Kent, if indeed it is about him.

Do you not agree that a Rangers forward should be contributing at least 10 goals in a season?

 

[Burgh-Ger]

Just on Kent - He would be a big loss on that left side, he’s heading into his prime, get the deal done Rangers

 

[Alfie shhh!]

If he could stay fit it would be excellent but sadly I expect he won’t be fit for long

Indeed. He's excellent but I'm waiting for the news that he'll miss the first 4 months of the season.

 

[DadosDado]

3 goals in a season, that's why not.

Ryan Giggs scored 3 league goals or less multiple seasons in his career. And total goals of between 4-7 many times.

 

[Saturnblue]

Yeah - Daily Record getting their reporting/stories from follow follow!!

What a brass neck!!

Surprised they haven't done a story linking us to Bruce Anderson

 

[Angus Og]

Cooper didn’t play in a front three.

What did he play in?

 

[Coisty09]

FWIW I suspect the club will have wanted a decent percentage sell on fee given what Southampton managed to trouser when they sold on Dick Van Dyke to Liverpool.
I think Aribo is going to go on and be a sensation in the EPL.

 

[JMCK]

Well, he needs to improve; you don't kick a player out who needs to improve, when he contributes in many other ways.

 

[Madjid Moments]

Anything else on the two players in for medicals

Two? Colak and?

 

[Rio Loyal]

I have no insider info but my hunch is that Alfie and Kent will sign new deals and Aribo and Kamara will move on this window.

TBH mate that’s my exact thinking as well as I think we are actively trying to sell Kamara.

 

[Alfie shhh!]

I think Aribo is going to go on and be a sensation in the EPL.

Agreed, I reckon Arsenal or Chelsea will pick him up in a few years if he hits the ground running.

 

[Salsabear]

Worst thing is that these idiots peddle made up guff, which then gets regurgitated by other idiots, then spreads to being factual.

Factual for the third level of idiocy…which often ends up on here.

 

[Kratos]

Has he? I don't think he has.

He quoted a 6m fee. Then all the fan media affiliates came out stressing it was 6m plus add ons.

The fee would appear to be 6m.

The fact the club are trying to inflate the figure by quoting add ons doesn't wash.

They know its a shit deal. A shit deal they had to accept because they let his contract run down.

Ornstein who quoted 10million is just as respected to be fair

 

[GovanFront4]

Helander has the weirdest running style, which is immediately apparent in that picture.

Makes him look so slow but I don't think he ever really gets outdone for pace due to his other attributes. But yes he does run like he's got ice skates on.

 

[Alfie shhh!]

He's 6 foot 4 so one of his strides is the equivalent of 2 or 3 for the average player.

 

[rez1872]

More so tbh.

 

[Ross_]

Did that not work for Walter one time, when we signed Jelavic?

we also didn't spend 8m on Jelavic ... we spent about 4.5m give or take.

which is again what i would say is our ballpark max this window on a single player.

 

[Bluebeard]

Are people genuinely still pretending they think we are only getting £6 for Joe Aribo??

Jesus Christ.

 

[Aribo17]

I think everyone knows acknowledges Kent should score more but his quality is undoubted.

 

[JMCK]

Just on Kent - He would be a big loss on that left side, he’s heading into his prime, get the deal done Rangers

Absolutely. Off the top of my head comes immediately to mind two things Kent does in big games, and there will be many more: the cross to Tavernier in the EL semi, and Wright's goal in the SC Final. We rely heavily on Kent at crucial times, and if he left we would find that out to our cost immediately most probably.

 

[BigBadJohn]

The club can't force players to sign new contracts or be sold if they don't want to leave, the upfront fee would appear to be £6 million plus whatever else was negotiated on top .

Upfront fee being £6m is fine as long as the rest of the fee on top of that is instalments rather than 'add-ons'. Most of our incoming deals will be a chunk up front and the rest in instalments. Non-issue.

I'm not sure if I'm the only one but I consider addons to be things like number of appearances, trophies won etc whereas instalments are just deferred payments.

I would imagine we've had to sacrifice a little bit on overall fee for a sell on which is alright because Aribo's true value -especially if he does well down the road - is much, much higher and could get us a tidy chunk in the future.

 

[mr magoo loyal]

Just on Kent - He would be a big loss on that left side, he’s heading into his prime, get the deal done Rangers

Still think he'd be better on right side cutting in to his left foot and works well when you have full backs like Tav who then have the space opened up for them, but bottomline is Ryan Kent's overall game is much more important to the team than some people realise.

 

[JMCK]

we also didn't spend 8m on Jelavic ... we spent about 4.5m give or take.

which is again what i would say is our ballpark max this window on a single player.

We spent big. I'd rather an £8 million player than two £4 million players, especially coming into this side.

Starting to doubt this

Few hours ago so probably already been but supposedly the Bongonda news is coming from Belgium

 

[Burgh-Ger]

Jesus Christ.

Yes - it’s still happening and still being debated!!

 

[47blue]

I think the same other than Kamara. I think Aribo + what we have sitting funds the 2 or 3 players we are after!

Best guess……

I suspect we may see Kamara in a more forward midfield role next season. He is more than capable imo.

 

[mustn’t grumble]

Are people genuinely still pretending they think we are only getting £6 for Joe Aribo??

Jesus Christ.

We should be holding out for much more than £6.

 

[ShieldhallBear]

Two? Colak and?

Hasn’t been named, couple of posters saying 2 are having medicals today and acting pretty solid about their info. Would be surprised if we’ve got someone else without anyone knowing who though.

Article says according to Scottish sources, the only one I know of being @venturablue

 

[Ross_]

We spent big. I'd rather an £8 million player than two £4 million players, especially coming into this side.

I guess we have a difference of opinion then - for example (hypothetically - as Skov Olsen boat has been missed)

I certainly wouldn't want bongonda for 8m when we could have had Olsen for 5m and then say Gus Til for 3m

that would then have solved our RW issue and given us a goal threat from centre mid as apposed to spending 8m on a LW (predominantly) for the same outlay.

 

[Rio Loyal]

It was made up what more do
You want to know?

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

I want him signed purely for the Scenes when he signs and slays the mentally challengeds scores a hattrick and the headlines read

THREE-O BONGONDA..

Unashamedly adapted from Peep show

 

[TukTuk to Bangla]

I'd be very surprised if either has made it into the country without being photographed. Especially with the way this window has went

 

[Coisty09]

I have no insider info but my hunch is that Alfie and Kent will sign new deals and Aribo and Kamara will move on this window.

I think this will happen if we qualify for the UCL.
If we don’t, I expect Kent and Alfie to go and for some frantic transfer activity to take place before the Europa league group stages get underway.

 

[giogaddi]

Where is the £8m chat coming from? Surely he's worth less than that.

 

[Bluebeard]

We should be holding out for much more than £6.

It’s £10 we are getting

 

[RangersLad1983]

Bring him...

Thats an old photo of Herrera ffs lol.

 

[CF4]

A wee tenner bag eh

Quite disturbing how many individuals who turn up in the transfer threads saying "they've been told" of who's signing that turns out to be shite. Are they mentally ill?

Hours ago via the Scottish press via FF.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

I didnt actually know that.

 

[artificialintoleranz]

He runs like midget would run trying to hold in a jobby.

Never been nutmegged in his professional career. Ever.

Makes perfect sense now.

It just must be attention seeking then onto a new username.

 

[alex wright]

What did he play in?

Generally left wing in a 4-4-2.

 

[DJT]

I think Aribo is going to go on and be a sensation in the EPL.

If he's even half decent he'll move on for crazy money because EPL clubs are crazy, so hopefully there's a decent sell on attached to the club.

 

[JMCK]

that would then have solved our RW issue and given us a goal threat from centre mid as apposed to spending 8m on a LW (predominantly) for the same outlay.

I wouldn't argue with any of that, and it's not something I'm particularly tight on, probably because I don't think we spend that on a single player anyway, but I do quite like the thought of a player who really raises the quality of the team. I know I could have few incoming for saying this, but it looked at times as if Ramsey gave that; there was a few things he did, particularly in the second half against Braga, where it seemed he was really adding something. I'd a take a pricy player, not Ramsey, if we could get him.

 

[Govan Ger]

To be fair, nobody is paying that for Ryan Kent.

Celtic players worth mega millions, Rangers players worth pennies, that's the mentally challengeds mhedia agenda and some of our fans suck up to it.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Yes, his work rate off the ball is superb.

 

[Dotty_84]

He also said colak was shite basically. File under Rangers hater.

Aye a poor finisher, Aribo could never score in a European Final...
