Yup all done!

Some fans from his previous clubs rave about him.

For me he is Buffs natural replacement. Very very similar but has a mature head.

Will be a great addition!

Well done Beale and Co. ??.

Hopefully not a massive price as he's away to be 29. Little sell on value.

I would rather have Danilo, and I’m concerned brining in Dessers means we won’t now get him.

Wonder if the Danilo deal is dead now that we have Lammers, Dessers, Sakala, Colak, Sima, Roofe and Matondo for the forward areas. I hope not and I was happy for Colak to stay but if someone is likely to go for Danilo to come in it has to be Colak. Can only play 1 position, wants to be the main man and he's one dimensional.


8.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:11:59
Hopefully we've not stupidity overpaid?

We cave to often on transfers

Looks like a decent player but probably no sell on value unless he does really well early and sold after first year.

Would prefer danillo unfortunately can't see it now but good luck dessers.


10.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:22:52
Dessers will be a good signing imo. Looks a perfect fit for a striker in the spl. Not sure on Danilo tbh . a Brazilian in Govan, doubt he would take to us!


11.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:25:50
Prefer Danilo.


12.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:31:30
Suppose the board and management team can't win? Now people saying hope we've not overpaid.
Beale has identified who he wants and has been backed, no complaints from and also 29 is far from end of career, he's in his prime and we could get 4 years nae bother off this fella. Imagine if we were selling Morelos and someone tried to get him for 4m. Think the fee will be fair for what we're getting in today's market.


13.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:38:22
Those who do, why do you prefer Danilo? Curious.


14.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:43:18
I think if we look at it logically if we have made an offer for Danilo then we must want him. I know 1908.nl have said we are no longer interested but I think that is guesswork on the back of Dessers signing. I personally don't think it was one or the other.


15.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:45:26
Hopefully we get both Dessers and Danilo but Dessers is the man Beale clearly wants so am cool if we don't get Danilo now.


16.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:45:43
Hopefully we have a Dessers and Cifuentes double reveal always something extra special about a double reveale.


17.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:47:21
Not every signing is going to have sell on value it’s impossible to have that.


18.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:51:01
Danilo Will go for over £10 million he’s well out our price range the Dutch always get good prices for there players.


19.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:51:19
Storm totally agree we can always think about selling a player when signing them.


20.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:52:46
Dessers isn't 29 until Christmas time, he should be at his peak now, anyway I'm saying he'll get over 20 goals this season, Sima Cantwell Lammers Dowell Tavernier double figures.


21.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:53:33
@GDog10 - Ronald de Boer’s comments made Danilo sound the better of the two. The one more like Morelos, but with the ability to score goals. Also, off the ball Danilo works extremely hard to get it back he was among the 97th percentile in the top 8 leagues for winning the ball back. The modern formations require high pressing which Sima, Lammers, and Danilo, could all do. Plus, Danilo is only 24 and could’ve been a Rangers players for the next 3-4 years then be sold on. With Dessers there is little opportunity of a sell him on as he’s 29 next summer.

Personally, I would’ve preferred Danilo. I hope we are still going to get him.


22.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:56:03
Everyone here saying they prefer danilo, can guarantee they only ever saw him against us.

Beale got his clear number 1 target. Why are you all moaning?


23.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:59:16
The guy is 28, an international player and the manager wanted him. We've got him. Where's the problem here?


24.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 16:59:18
Why are folk banging on about sell on value?
We had morelos paid very little a huge amount ws offered and nothing materialised
Same kinda thing right

Dessers is 29 he gives us 4 years of service
And In betweeen bangs the goals in
Possible league is won and many a trophy through this guys goals
Folk still bang on about sell on fee.


25.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:04:24
Gdog10 I think purely based on last years problems up top we wanted someone coming in with a great goals record. Danilo only had 14 starts last season and managed 10 goals 3 assists, Dessers has struggled to score regularly for quite a few years and with Lammers lack of goals it is concerning who we’ll rely on if these two aren’t contributing numbers. Heart and Hand saying that both could be a possibility so hopefully the Danilo deal isn’t off.


26.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:10:24
I get the sell on value what people keep raving on about fair enough

But see if he comes in n helps us win the league 56 n bangs them in n becomes a good player for us its money well spent

We got our moneys worth out kent n morelos n kept them too the end of their contract n yeah we didn't sell when we cuda but we got our moneys worth n more we lived a dream n europe, with their help

If dessers helps us too a few trophies then brillant n we might live a few more with dessers n new troops

We won 55 had a craking run to a European final hopfully its tides turning back blue guys.


27.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:11:45
@Ravers - Just because money wasn’t made for Kent or Morelos doesn’t mean Rangers should abandon their player trading model. Rangers should be buying players with a view to developing them and selling them on. The TV and prize money in Scottish football is pathetic. Winning the league has a prize money of about £3m, with £300k for a domestic cup win. The only way clubs like Rangers and Celtic can flourish is through player trading and regular participation in European football.

Rangers MUST turn a profit when it comes to player trading.

Tjrfc i can't remember danilo ever playing against us.


29.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:33:25
Not every single player you bring in has to have a sell on value. If he wins us the league nobody cares about that. Cantwell, Raskin, Sterling, Cifuentes, Yilmaz, all sellable assets down the line.


30.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:39:04
Don’t need sell on clause win the league for the next 5years he will have paid his way.


31.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:45:41
Totally agree Ravers and Storm, as long as we are stable financially and winning trophies i couldn’t care less about maximising sell on value.


32.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 17:50:04
Far to many people are worried about a sell on value than the guy here to win us leagues a don’t care if he’s 3 year wins us trophy’s an fcks off for 500k longs we are successful.

39.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 18:52:26
How can anyone on here say signings shouldn't be about sell on value? We play in a league with absolute dire TV/ prize money and we would need a latter run in Europe to make some cash profit.

Our club should be signing players with a good sell on chance. Bringing in a near 29 year old who may play 2/ 3 seasons for I'm guessing at least £5m is bad business! Where as a 24 year old for around the same value makes more sense. Now who knows who would perform better but we need to be buying younger.

41.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 19:17:36
We'd have to pay at least 7-8m for Danilo as well as what we've paid for Dessers, cannot see that happening. You never know Beale may have a wee trick up his sleeve though. A wee offer in for Shankland last day of the window ?.


42.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 19:39:19
Big blue Jim we also need a blend of experience in the team with the younger players. If Dessers helps us win the league and guarantee champions league money then that is just as important.
We have players in the squad with sell on potential.
Nothing to say we won't also get Danilo.

44.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 21:02:27
We have plenty of experience in that team already, I'd get your point if it was full of 22 year olds but we have players who have made European finals so what we need is a player trading profit. It's how we stay out of the mess we got in.

46.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 22:09:31
Everyone saying we don’t need to worry about sell on value all the time. Yes we absolutely do. Our league is a two horse race with us being underdogs for long enough and underdogs right now. Only entering champions league makes up for not making a profit on our signings. Our club will implode if we don’t totally concentrate on signing players that can offer a profit when sold on.


47.) 30 Jun 2023
30 Jun 2023 22:19:32
Totally agree with verdant comment. Blue dreamers that’s a fair comment kent and Alfredo helped us to a title and a good run in Europe but they both left without any money coming into the club. There was a point they could have been sold and made us a profit and we would have still have won that league title and that run in Europe. Them two leaving our club for free could match what we made that year a couple years back. We must make money on players leaving or lose as little as possible.


48.) 01 Jul 2023
01 Jul 2023 00:09:21
Correct beale, mixed him up with sima, but the point still stands.

We might sign another striker and defender then will be largely done depending in sales, along with cifuentes.

I don't understand how people are moaning. 6 in before July is unheard of.


49.) 01 Jul 2023

@Broxy - If we want to consistently match Celtic on the pitch, we must also match them off it. Celtic are able to spend big during the windows on player assets and the teams that spend the most money generally enjoy the most success. Other than Patterson, Aribo, and Bassey, I struggle to think of great examples of player trading that Rangers have done during the last decade. This is something Rangers really need to work on.
