The Summer 2022 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

[KGR98]

Seen a little scouting report about Michailidis from PAOK on Football Stewart’s Patreon, looks absolutely superb also and wouldn’t cost too much

If its PAOK we are dealing with we'll be in for a long ride

 

[gwrfc72]

get a grip man

it's a discussion thread

I'm having a discussion. I said Tymon is not gonna be the signing if we are looking at an attacking left back in the 3-5m range. Barisic is better than him ffs

 

[Crispy Bacon]

Just a point on Bassey…he’ll be gutted if he’s leaving. I’m not 100% sure he wants to leave. He certainly hasn’t been asking for it anyway. He genuinely loves it at our club.

He doesn’t have to leave. If Ajax are in for him then he wants to go there, no two ways about it.

 

[Davie Weir]

nah a few weks ago apparently

Hadn’t seen that

Is he? Do you watch Stoke often?

 

[HamiltonBear]

An offer of £25m (or thereabouts) is unturndownable, just like Trevor Steven to Marseille.

Then we can sign Bassey back for £8m

Sounds like a plan...

 

[Tagsbear]

Selling him and Aribo could be a gamble for title aspirations.

I keep reading loss of form. I believe Bassey will continue to improve.

The injury part is true I guess.

Realistically we couldn't turn down the money for Aribo given his contract situation and the fact he said he wanted to move, and at the sums being spoken of the same applies to Bassey, we just need to get it right with whoever else we bring in.

We could end up stronger overall.

Having grown up like yourself in an era when we wanted to tear the walls down when top players were getting sold it's hard to get used to

 

[Adam55]

Come back to me in a few weeks with that bookmark. If Tymon is holding a rangers jersey I'll delete my account

Goodbye

 

[Dj12872]

Judging by the pathetic amount we got for Aribo I can see us selling Bassey for £15M maximum.

Still can't believe we only got £6M up front.

Look what Liverpool got for mane he was worth at least double what Bayern paid.

Once you start to enter last year you are hampered as to what you can demand.

Before you get excited and reply by saying we should have extended his deal, it’s hard to do it the player doesn’t want to.

Before you reply to that with we should have sold him last year then, you need a team to actually make a bid for that to happen

thats what i think - and i genuinely think he will turn down Ajax.

 

[CF4]

nah a few weks ago apparently

Nope. November.

 

[alfie55]

John Brooks on a free transfer would be a sensational bit of business just a suggestion for the left sided CB role.

Wonder if we will go in for the Stoke LB/LWB ?

If we want another injury prone cb, yeah.

 

[Bluerhap]

Why is their manager phoning Bassey without a deal being reached by the clubs?

 

[alex wright]

I get the financials but first and foremost I want to be entertained at matches.

Winning helps in this regard but so does seeing young players progress and players who get you on your feet.

Losing Aribo and Bassey would be a major disappointment for me.

IMO football should always be more about the heart than head.

 

[Jorg]

cool

i was commenting on your 'ban me' if i'm wrong

 

[Qwa]

Not sure how much it means these days but Doron Leidner is following the official Rangers account on Instagram.

 

[Rangers daft]

A Scottish record would be lovely obviously.

Not sure the clubs stance is the same there though.

We will deal well before 20 imo.

For a guys who's names the businessman... You'd be fuckin horrendous at dealing in football transfers.

 

[Dotty_84]

Say we get £25m for Bassey. What sort of fee are people expecting us for fork out for his replacement ? I'll be shocked if it's over £4m.

If folk are expecting us to be spunking 7 or 8 million on players they're about to be severely disappointed.

5m tops I think our roof will be 7m max for an front 3 player.

 

[gwrfc72]

Goodbye

Haha

 

[scooter70]

Close to £50m into the club from 3 players that cost around £0.5m

That’s beyond how we would envisage “the model” working

It’s really painful to see top players go but needs must, now the club need to reinvest in a few and do it all over again, it’s where we are and at last we are seeing it at work

 

[Laudrup11ch]

Nope. November.

aye stand corrected - read it somewhere he just signed but wrong info lol

 

[Davie Weir]

Why is their manager phoning Bassey without a deal being reached by the clubs?

Modern day football. A club won’t start bidding or negotiating with another club unless they know the player is interested

 

[Boab4]

Tymon signed a contract recently, forget about him, hes not coming!

This really makes absolutely no difference.

 

[alfie55]

Why is their manager phoning Bassey without a deal being reached by the clubs?

Who says a deal hasn’t been reached?

 

[gavman]

Crazy to think if 12 months ago someone said we’d be selling Bassey for 25m to Ajax or a pl side we’d laugh in their face, call them a tim and probably see them banned.

Good place to be.

 

[Est1872]

Josh Tymon is not the level we should be looking at to replace Bassey

I wasn't suggesting him as my choice

Just that we've been strongly linked

 

[Jorg]

what you on about £50m

 

[M@x]

Well admin can ban me then

Mate, you're really not that important! Lol

 

[Manc Bear]

The same Rangers who got beat from Malmo at the same stage last year...

I get the sentiment but they’re not to be feared in the way some are going on

 

[Laudrup11ch]

if he goes - Leidner would be a decent replacement

 

[The Golden God]

what you on about £50m

Bassey, Aribo and Patterson. Do keep up

 

[Empire]

what you on about £50m

Patterson - £14m
Aribo - £10m
Bassey - £25m

 

[gwrfc72]

Mate, you're really not that important! Lol

Yes I am

 

[CraigM14]

Why is their manager phoning Bassey without a deal being reached by the clubs?

Every time a transfer is discussed this is brought up mate. We don’t like it necessarily, but almost every deal whether it be for a player or manager, will be done and agreed in principle before any official approach is made. It’s the way of the football world, and it’s not a new thing

 

[Kentbear]

what you on about £50m

Bassey, Patterson and Aribo (if he goes)

 

[Delboy Trotter]

It is a reality. They can earn a bigger signing on fee and higher wages than they could were a transfer fee involved. That's not rocket science.

players sometimes get small cuts of transfer fees

The notion that every player is better off running their contract down is nonsense

Players can often double their wage with a move rather than waiting several years on the same salary just to move on a free transfer.

 

[Davie Weir]

what you on about £50m

Guessing he means Aribo, Patterson and Bassey. Maybe the £50m was slightly high but he does make a very good point.

 

[humie]

Maybe the club has given the go ahead for him to talk to potential suitor’s. I’ve no idea how this works. I would love the big guy to stay but money talks

 

[Jorg]

Bassey, Aribo and Patterson. Do keep up

so bassey is away for £32m

cheers for breaking that news for me

meanwhile on planet earth......

 

[chilebear]

I hope CB doesn't leave, ill be gutted to lose him.

 

[Hilly5411]

Just checked for myself and it's true. Wonder if we have contacted him before about a possible move if things fell into place

Doesn’t look like he follows any other club apart from us and his current one

 

[Thor]

Crazy to think if 12 months ago someone said we’d be selling Bassey for 25m to Ajax or a pl side we’d laugh in their face, call them a tim and probably see them banned.

Good place to be.

Not even 12 months ago. After the game v Ross County in January!

 

[Bryanmc]

if he goes - Leidner would be a decent replacement

I’ve genuinely never heard of him

 

[Quijibo]

You seem obsessed by a "transfer model".
Rangers Football Club is about winning on the park, always has been, always will be. If we make a few quid along the way, we'll and good, but stfu about transfer models ....please!!

It’s how we improve our team.

£20m sale, £14m on two players and £6m to the club. Rinse and repeat and your club gets stronger not weaker.

The team becomes stronger when the sum of its parts are stronger, not individuals.

Everyone here who supports Rangers wants us to be the best we can be. Not everyone is prepared to accept what that looks like though.

 

[Taverneeeeer]

Only real issue for me in the bassey sale is the time (or lack there of) to get players in and gelled in time for livi and the qualifying round.

 

[NDC bear forever]

Not sure how much it means these days but Doron Leidner is following the official Rangers account on Instagram.

We are also his most recent follow

Some laugh if FollowFollow putting 2 + 2 together has actually identified a transfer rumour

 

[Crispy Bacon]

Is this Leidner chap any good?

 

[Bluerhap]

Every time a transfer is discussed this is brought up mate. We don’t like it necessarily, but almost every deal whether it be for a player or manager, will be done and agreed in principle before any official approach is made. It’s the way of the football world, and it’s not a new thing

Think Jock Wallace would have something to say about that.

 

[gwrfc72]

I’ve genuinely never heard of him

The foreign name instantly makes him a better player than Tymon imo

 

[Cooperfan]

Sums up how I feel about it just now precisely.
