The Summer 2024 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread

Difficult to be sure about what the plan would be if Tav moves on.  Clement might think Sterling and Devine can cover RB but I'd have thought he'd want to bring in a more experienced replacement.

Sterling is a completely different player to Tav so I'm not sure he'll be his long term replacement at right back.

Maybe it was the red wine but I'm sure I read that he has a release clause in his contract (300k)? Or was it because he is in the last year if his contract? 

He's in the last year of his contract so the £300k was the 'cross border' compensation if we sign him at the end of his contract

Whatever became of Aberdeen taking us to arbitration over fee for Barron?

I'm conflicted by the Traore rumours. 

 

£3-4m for a 29-year-old is on the high side, for me. He hasn't actually played a lot of minutes in his career, either. He has played about 4,000 minutes more than Diomande (44 matches?), yet is 7 years older. I do think that's mainly due to a poor spell in France, where he played very little over three years. 

 

But then again, he does have a track record of winning titles. He won three league titles with TP Mazembe - one of the best sides in Africa - along with a CAF Champions League. And he won titles at Sheriff and Ferencvaros, and gained some UEFA Champions League experience. 

 

His last few seasons have been good: 89 G+A in 134 appearances. 

 

If only he was a few years younger...

Value, according to Transfermarkt.

That won't be quick, I'm sure they only meet so many times per annum.

Igamane injured? Surely not 🤷‍♂️

Clement said he wasn't going to be a starter, so it won't make much difference to the first team (if he is injured).
