The Summer 2022 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

Dont think this boy ever got a first team game at Anfield

I must be missing something. Where does a valuation of £4m for Ben Davies come from and why are we signing yet another CB? If he was a proven left back I could at least understand the attraction, if not the price.

The fee is £3M with £1M add on. Not a bad fee for a player who's played nearly 200 games in Championship. 

 

We do need a CB - Helander is injured and can't be relied on, Katic and Simpson aren't good enough, which only leaves Soutar and King. Sands to fill in if / when required but is a midfield player. 

 

Doesn't take away from the fact that we still need a left back (and centre forward) and think we'll sign one or two more players before the season starts.

He`s an EPL player at Liverpool and his contract runs till 2025. 3m+ is "cheap".

I'm interested in why he got stuck in the Championship for so long and I'm interested in whether or not at £4m he's value for money at Rangers. I hope he is and I trust our recruitment team but I'm not seeing an up and coming young pro who's ready to break through.

4M?

 

We are gettin rolled.

 

The red shit paid five hundred grand and he never saw their pitch.

 

Then got loaned to the blades and played like a mannequin.

 

Mark my word...this is a piss poor call.

 

Don't believe me though...22:00

All transfers have a risk attached, and like you I trust Gio and our recruitment team. Liverpool bought him and didn't play him and he was loaned to Sheffield United. He was a standout when he played for Preston and his career has not taken off (as yet).

The total fee was £1.6M and he only had 6 months left on his contract. 

 

I'll reserve judgement on him until I see him play for Rangers. I'm sure we can find YouTube clips showing errors made by lets say, Calvin Bassey, whom we've sold for €27M or thereabouts.

As that is about what he is worth...~1.5M

 

That would be a fair market value.

 

No way, on any planet is that cat worth 4M.

 

His performance last season alone does not warrant a 120% jump in value.

 

No way no how.

 

We're gettin robbed.
