Official The Summer 2024 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

[JD1872]

Not in the know at all troops, but just do a bit of IT work for some clubs through a relationship my firm has with Statsbomb. Have posted before about it. Maatsen specifically last August well before Gio confirmed the club had been looking at him. Anyway Myron Boadu, striker. From what I can see there's a solid chance hes in at Rangers pretty early in the window.

We were also linked with him in January, highly rated when he moved to Monaco and would have played under Clement

 

[Phil'ieve]

Does anyone know the most amount of signings we've ever signed in a summer window?

 

[ICA_86]

He has 2 years left at Monaco

It’s not really worked out at Monaco and they’ll listen to offers.

 

[BigBlueAngus]

I’d hold back on that just now.

We’ve been linked within loads, looks like definites with Jefte and Cordoba, but there’s a long way to go.

I don’t think the club could afford to be seen chasing 3/4/5 players in the last week this time around though.

Hold back on what mate?

Folk will dive in to this two footed, but if we sre signing 12+ players - we need to bring in players who are die hards. Oli McBurnie types. Not him but players like him, who live and breath Rangers. (Only better than McBurnie )

If we have 12 foreigners then we are cooked because that’s how you develop a culture that doesn’t really care about losing - like we have now.

In fact this squad are more concerned about the backlash they receive from losing than actually losing.

One of the most glaring things we've failed to do is replace Scott Arfield. Not just as a goalscoring midfielder, but certainly that is a major issue, but as a person. Rangers to the core, a leader, and obsessed with our standards. Him booting Brown in the air at that drop ball is something nobody in our current squad even thinks about.

 

[Macdonsj]

months of

X, Y & Z aren't good enough
A, B and C need to go
and quite a lot of all but Butland and Sterling can go:


idea floated of 12 new players

ooooooh that might be a bit much

 

[Recoba]

We need to win the league next season. It’s imperative.

No more imperative than any other season but when building a new squad there has to be some patience, doesn't look like you will have any though.

 

[JDC76]

The most exciting thing about 12 incoming is that at least 12 of the losers will be heading out.

Definitely

 

[MickF]

Does anyone know the most amount of signings we've ever signed in a summer window?

Gerrard’s first summer must be close to the top with 15 coming in.

 

[mustn’t grumble]

No more imperative than any other season but when building a new squad there has to be some patience, doesn't look like you will have any though.

They go level with us on 55 if they win next season. A number of our other records will be matched or bettered at that point too (total trophies etc). Head to head stats. How patient do you think 50,000 bears in Ibrox will be?

 

[bkerr72]

It’s not really worked out at Monaco and they’ll listen to offers.

Hes only started 2 games since joining Twente a lot of sub appearances as well. Looks like a few injuries the last couple of seasons.

 

[Spart7]

Lots of names bandied about in here this morning. Good to see.

That Pavel Sulc guy mentioned a few pages ago seems on limited clips to be very much an Arfield type.

 

[The Blue Iceberg]

I’m a bit worried at us making too many changes and bringing in too many not from our league.

Don't worry mate, I have it on good authority that we're bringing in big Tam McHacker and wee Neddy O'Bam from Murderwell for an undisclosed fee.

 

[Macdonsj]

we started way off them this season and even with a depleted squad we managed to get into a place where we should have won it

remove the loser mentality we see at the end of each season and even a slow start can be overcome

 

[BeachBear]

Even then 4 million euro is about 2.6 million sterling

It's £3.4 million mate

 

[Phil'ieve]

Re Boadu. Twente look like they want lammers to replace him. And Feyenoord were said to want him to replace Danilo last summer. Monaco were said to want about 14 million off Feyenoord for Boadu and they pulled out. This was a year ago but he still might be expensive. Loan to buy maybe? @LaRabbie

 

[TheOnlyTeamForMe]

We need to win the league next season. It’s imperative.

Not from the guaranteed money standpoint we don't.

Next year's league winners aren't guaranteed champs league football. Must qualify after 24/25 season.

It was this season that was imperative.

 

[LaRabbie]

I think thats the model. Nominal fee I'd say as a bit of a project - age on his side though. £2m was the number getting flung about but that was a bit of educated speculation.

 

[Herbie53]

If the attacking midfielders were linked with are true,you’d imagine old Toddy boy was for the offski too.

Wouldn’t be opposed to Cantwell going tbh.

Would likely get a decent fee for him and in all honesty he’s done more talking on social media than he has on the pitch since he got here.

 

[Andyprfc]

There’s a good chance if we win the league we will go straight In, the tramps won’t.

 

[dereksmallsloyal]

Lots of names bandied about in here this morning. Good to see.

Exciting ones too. No idea if they’re realistic or even on our radar but Rrahmani, Sulc and Boadu are interesting names.

 

[Fairbrass]

We've got ourselves in such a mess that them overtaking us is inevitable (at least temporarily), that was always going to happen when we got binned to division 3.

The main thing we have to do now is start making the right moves in the transfer window and build a team capable of winning the league eventually, if that doesnt happen next season but does the season afterwards, then thats acceptable. We cant just keep binning managers and overhauling the entire squad every few seasons. The entire club need to start getting it right or we're fkd.

 

[LaRabbie]

Wouldn’t be opposed to Cantwell going tbh.

Would likely get a decent fee for him and in all honesty he’s done more talking on social media than he has on the pitch since he got here.

Genuinely heard theres a lower premier league team willing to pay £5m for him.

 

[Andrew webb]

I really hope that if there is that many players coming in that a decent number that Koppen is looking at are Scottish. We need players experienced in our league that know what Rangers is all about.

hopefully

 

[Carlos Danger]

This idea that we need fans in the squad to instill a winning mentality is utter nonsense. If Clement wants to win titles as much as I think he does, he will be instilling that mentality himself with players he know will take to it.

That’s done my brain in for years. Bayer Leverkusen don’t need fans in their side to go unbeaten and win the league,why do rangers??? Every professional player in Europe will know the size of our club and the demands that are placed on them should they come here. The need rangers men thing is mental.

 

[The Blue Iceberg]

Lundstram going
Goldson likely also


Tavernier could be the only one of the leadership group left. And even at that, this could be a season that sees him phased out.

No way will Tav be "phased out" in terms of games he plays mate, but even although I'm one of his biggest fans, I would still be very happy for us to sign a new captain.

Finding one with a proven track record of success who would be able to handle the job of galvanising us though is an entirely different matter.

 

[Phil'ieve]

No more imperative than any other season but when building a new squad there has to be some patience, doesn't look like you will have any though.

The only things that are imperative next season are that we are close to them, have won a cup and have picked up points in old firm games with a squad that looks full of improvement and promise for the season after. To be looking like we are heading in the right direction and have some sellable assets. We've been that bad this season (start, end and old firms) that we can drastically improve next season without managing to win the league yet again. Celtic will improve as well. And if we do improve despite not winning the league next season but look like we are heading in a good direction there's no chance we are just going to rip it all up, sack Clement and start over again. Why would we. This is another massive rebuild and it might not happen over night.

 

[scottishcampbell]

We need to win the league next season. It’s imperative.

We are up against a team better in defense,midfield and attack who pretty much have unlimited funds,we are rebuilding a whole team under budget,not saying impossible bit very,very difficult

What does it translate,?

 

[Herbie53]

Genuinely heard theres a lower premier league team willing to pay £5m for him.

Sounds like a good deal for us tbh if that’s true.

 

[Recoba]

I really don't care about past records i only care about what happens in the future and winning trophies.

The head to head is going to flip back and fourth over the coming years.

Its much more important that we get a decent team built and build up sellable assets and make money doing so.

 

[Mview83]

What does it translate,?

Jefte is signing for us

 

[RangersLad1983]

What does it translate,?

Jefte will be signing for us in July

 

[Phil'ieve]

Hopefully you're right mate seems like the type we should be going for.

I think thats the model. Nominal fee I'd say as a bit of a project - age on his side though. £2m was the number getting flung about but that was a bit of educated speculation.

 

[Kit_]

Does anyone know the most amount of signings we've ever signed in a summer window?

Has to be when we brought in about 19 players in Gerrard's first season?

 

[Phil'ieve]

Someone else just said 15 but probably mate aye

 

[BombersBoots]

Genuinely heard theres a lower premier league team willing to pay £5m for him.

5 million is nothing to them he was touted at 30 million to Villa not long ago.

I think it’s quite obvious that he’s not in Clements long term plans , 5 million with a good sell on would be decent business.

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Re Boadu. Twente look like they want lammers to replace him. And Feyenoord were said to want him to replace Danilo last summer. Monaco were said to want about 14 million off Feyenoord for Boadu and they pulled out. This was a year ago but he still might be expensive. Loan to buy maybe? @LaRabbie

I think 14m was what Monaco paid for him, so that may be the basis.

Value has dropped significantly per transfermarket ( i know ) but he's still 23yo, quick & seems reasonably strong & aware.

Dont see us being interested unless its less than half of that 14m euros ?

 

[chickenhawk]

Upon the expiry of which he will leave for nowt.

He more than quadrupled his wages coming to Rangers and he won't get those anywhere else.

He's going to be hanging about all next season....

A microcosm of Rangers mismanagement and financial incompetence.

I look forward to his 2 goal contributions in 30 games

Ditto. Pretty much what I just wrote back to you a minute ago.

Aye and even that would be a Push you would think.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Genuinely heard theres a lower premier league team willing to pay £5m for him.

Would take that.

 

[Edmond Dantes]

The "4m" for Cordoba is Euros, not Sterling.

Hope not, eouikd rather we keep sterling tbh

 

[Phil'ieve]

Hope not, eouikd rather we keep sterling tbh

Beat me to it

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

Aye and even that would be a Push you would think.

Agree.

Maybe if we're getting Dessers out for 3-4m it may be feasible ?

No one will take Danilo until he re proves his fitness.

 

[Andrew webb]

It’s not really worked out at Monaco and they’ll listen to offers.

Good news
We always seem to sign class players from Monaco especially a certain striker

 

[jigster]

That’s done my brain in for years. Bayer Leverkusen don’t need fans in their side to go unbeaten and win the league,why do rangers??? Every professional player in Europe will know the size of our club and the demands that are placed on them should they come here. The need rangers men thing is mental.

its players with the right attitude and mentality we need

We cant just keep binning managers and overhauling the entire squad every few seasons. The entire club need to start getting it right or we're fkd.

Agree, long term is what matters, but i do hope Phil gives himself different tactical options to the 4231.

 

[LaRabbie]

Aye and even that would be a Push you would think.

Monaco were looking to swap him as part of a deal to get Mikautadze from Ajax and were willing to pay 7m odd as well as Moadu so that maybe gives an idea of his value to them. Think Mikautadze was valued at 10m euro or so. That was in the dutch press last week.

 

[EIAFF]

I’m a bit worried at us making too many changes and bringing in too many not from our league.

Given the aboslute paucity of what's left in this squad, I'm not fussed about any of them leaving. It'd be almost impossible to switch 15 of them and end up worse off given their injuries, general inability or high wages as an overall squad come the end of the window.

You're either going to have better players, more fit players or at worst, if the squad isn't that much better, more cash up your sleeve to improve things going forward.

Bin them all as far as I'm concerned. There's about 5 max I'd miss and one of them is a boy, one is a loan, one is a keeper we might cash in on and the other is so far a utility player who might come good in a main role.

I'd not lose sleep over another 25 of them leaving
