The Summer 2022 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

[der Berliner 3,749]

Colombian striker from Sochi linked, even though right now the Russians look for 8.5m ...

 

IN - Mateo Cassierra (25) - ST, Sochi, contract 6/2023 + 1yo - LINK - TM

[Malangsob 1,264]

Matteo Cassiera's name is popping up a lot. 

 

May be a bit rich for our blood but me thinks that Russia may be the place to find some really good deals given the circumstance. 

 

I think with the Russkies out of Europe a few clubs are gonna wanna deal. 

 

This Cassiera looks pretty smooth, good nose for goal, and nice soft touch passing, pretty stuff. 

 

Hat Trick v. Dynamo.

Has the Russian league not made a ruling that limits the number of foreign players on the pitch at any one time?

How can we buy a player from Russia? Are there not embargoes on sending money from the UK to Russia?

From what i've seen of Cassierra ,the 8.5m valuation is way off,..half of that maybe.

That's easy.

Take this Cassiera cat for instance.

He is Colombian, his agency is probably located in another part of Europe or the Americas. 

There doesn't even have to be direct contact between clubs.

Agreement through an intermediary (agency), player released, legal attachment to the Russia league absolved.

Free agency signing, with a sign on 'bonus'.

If it even needs to go that far. 

I am not sure on restrictions.

Well, if you switch on the TV, you`d think the whole world is haring after Russia. In fact, it is "only" Europe/EU, Britain, the US and some cohorts. They make up roughly 20 % of the world`s population. China is more pro-Russian and will do what serves China most (and they do not quiver being faced by sanctions), India is more pro-Russian, but has its own problems. Much of Asia is not interested in this puny war (which it is), as is Africa. Arabia is split, since they see new opportunities in delivering oil to Europe, but also have good relations to Russia. Just my take on it.

So, there will be ways to make any deals happening ... but I would assume some Yahoo shit-thrower will cry foul if any of our deals mean that we actually pay  a Russian side for their players.

Leon Balogun has officially left Rangers - certainly leaves with my best wishes 

[CammyF 8,131]

Andy Firth has also left the club - devistated - FFS Wislon and Gio....

 

In all seriousness, all the best Andy.

Must be plans well in advance to bring in 1or 2 CD. We cannot rely on Helander.
