Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


17 May 2016 22:07:39
Dorrans and ings won't happen. There's no interest in Dorrans from Rangers. Ings has no interest in Rangers and wants to move to Burnley instead.

Cummings, Kranjcar, Barton, Inman, are all real possibilities.



18 May 2016 02:00:01
Rangers are interested in Dorrans for the right price I know this for a fact.



18 May 2016 10:39:17
Agree if the right price but ain't going to happen as Alex ONeil and Norwich have both said he is going nowhere and Rangers could not afford him and plans on offering a new extended contact to the player so No good there i'm afraid as he said 1.5mil is nowhere enough.



17 May 2016 22:42:04
We will only sign Cummings, as the rest don't want to come.



17 May 2016 20:36:39
Any news on Forrester being ready for Cup Final? i'm guessing he won't be but it would be a real boost if he was.



17 May 2016 20:58:43
Warburton was interviewed the other day and said he wouldn't be fit.



17 May 2016 19:31:30
I also hear kyle lafferty is wanting to come back, personally I this he is guff and wouldn't want him back.



17 May 2016 20:26:45
now we are really getting stupid lol. on a lighter note ed i am sitting here looking out of my window and thinking to myself if your niko krancjar sitting in america right now thinking over a transfer to rangers then looking at the rain lashing down outside in glasgow right now would be enough to make up my mind lol. also reading some of the posts on here as well think i am losing the will to live. i thought it was only people from the manky side who were stupid and dumb, anyway hope yer having a good evening.



17 May 2016 21:18:02
James the guys a footballer, not a weather man, by micheal fish, or is it tom ketly, lol.



17 May 2016 23:28:58
He lives in New York which is just a as wet as here.



18 May 2016 12:00:53
hes played for Portsmouth and Spurs dude am sure he's saw rain before.



17 May 2016 19:29:23
I hear we are keen on signing Crewe Alexandras australian midfielder Brad Inman.



17 May 2016 22:33:45
Not sure if he is 'free', like his uncle John.



17 May 2016 22:48:40
Cuillin72 brilliant mate, i don't think many of our younger support will tipple, buy ye very witty mate, lol.



18 May 2016 10:55:08
Lol Great post there cuillin72 haha.



17 May 2016 17:23:14
I thought I posted this earlier but I was speaking to the brother of Declan McManus who plays for Fleetwood and has been on loan at Morton (formerly of Aberdeen) . He claims that Dec is hanging for a move back to Scotland as his girlfriend has given birth and wants to come home.

Anyway his older brother claims his agent has been contacted by eight Scottish clubs including Rangers, Hearts, Dundee and Hibs.

Make of it what you will boys. Just passing along some genuine info.



17 May 2016 18:00:15
sign him up, next Jamie Vardy woohoo.



17 May 2016 18:39:06
Who is Declan McManus.



17 May 2016 21:20:04
Ready i don't know him either, but must say with a name like yown he might interest the other team from the east end, lol.



18 May 2016 00:03:54
Is he not part of Oliver' s army?



18 May 2016 08:32:36
Beau, so that's 2 brothers of professional footballers you have spoken with this week?



18 May 2016 09:50:07
We are all from the east end and grew up together mate. I know a few other guys personally from my time playing in youth football.

Glasgow isn't a big place. It not like I'm saying I have spoken to Sergio Aguero'or Andres Iniesta's brother.



18 May 2016 14:45:18
The seeker as long as he ain't here to stay mate, maybe he is on his way.



18 May 2016 17:12:50
Fair enough Beau. I wasn't trying to have a dig, just generally interested that you have spoken with two brothers of potential targets. That's a pity about Aguero and Inesta however lol.



17 May 2016 18:17:34
Agger to gers.



17 May 2016 14:07:33
Barton deal done.



17 May 2016 14:23:36
wish people would get a grip honestly the deal is not done joey barton is away on holiday with his partner to consider rangers offer so until we hear it officialy i wish people would get their facts right. also think we should be trying to get cover in the full back area's for tav and wallace should they get injured. anyway predictions for saturday i believe it is going to be a tight nervy game but i think we will win but score wise not so sure.



17 May 2016 14:26:55
Where are you seeing this?



17 May 2016 15:09:55
barton is away on holiday.



17 May 2016 15:45:29
I think if Barton signs for Rangers on a longer contract than two years it doesn't make a lot of sense. Granted age is just a number but many clubs have a one deal policy for over 30's for a reason and that reason is simply the sustainability of an athletes body.

Like others have said it could be a stroke of genius from the club or a complete disaster. It will be nice to see a household name back in the the SPL again.



17 May 2016 16:14:23
Spl isn't exactly la liga, so being in your 30s goes for nothing. if youve got the talent at that age, don't see how it would be a problem.



17 May 2016 16:34:36
totally agree with you jamesreilly its okay to speculate but to say its done when everyone know it isn't is just stupid. and cover for the full backs would be a good idea we should take aird back for a start the bot has talent so another rb would be nice but only once we have replaced our shaky cb's especially Wilson.



17 May 2016 16:34:58
Laudrup exactly mate, kenny miller,



17 May 2016 16:43:58
I agree that age is just a number, he could be another Davie Weir and play until he's 40. However, for me a 3 year contract is excessive at his age, because we don't know when his body will give in. 2 year deal, with Rangers holding the option to extend it for a 3rd would be the best solution in my eyes.



17 May 2016 16:21:06
Age is just a number, everyone's bodies age differently so he could do a job until he's 36, look at Kenny miller.



18 May 2016 01:02:28
Are we forgetting Lee McCullouch? Age is not just a number- when your legs go, they go- and that 3 year deal doesn't go anywhere lol.



17 May 2016 19:51:48
I feel Barton is only using us to get the terms he wants down south. Burnley would be crazy to let a top player go for nothing.



17 May 2016 13:24:45
Hearing that Danny Ings won't be in the squad for tomorrow nights Europa League final v Sevilla, is there a deal in the works though I'm not sure?!
All I can say is the amount of players and the amount of talent we are being linked with at the moment is making me more and more excited for the years to come under warburton! makes me proud to be a bear.



17 May 2016 14:29:58
Danny Ings won't be a Rangers player. No doubt it would be amazing but its simply not happening.



17 May 2016 15:52:50
Reason Danny ings isn't in Liverpool's squad for tomorrow is because he wasn't included in their Europa league squad for the knockout stages because of his long term injury.



17 May 2016 15:39:30
He had a medical yesterday at MP.



17 May 2016 16:36:51
where did you hear that he had a medical yesterday at murray park I can't see it anywhere and can't believe a player that demands that kind of wage would even look in the spl's direction guys on a fortune at liverpool.



17 May 2016 16:37:30
Blebot, were are nyou getting that from,



17 May 2016 17:22:56
he is behind you oh no he isn't oh yes he is lol seriously i have not laughed so much in my laugh if ings joins rangers then i am going to be next president of america and ed is a billionaire. okay ed is already a billionaire but i am not president. ed there is a player in america called dom dwyer who plays for sporting kansas city don't know if you know much about him but i have seen a bit of him this season and he looks a fantastic little player he is 25 years of age so still young enough they also have ex wigan player roger espinoza who although is 29 looks like a really good player as well. these 2 players are worth looking at. :)



{Ed001's Note - Dom Dwyer is a Brit, he took a chance on going to the MLS and it has paid off handsomely. Not sure he would want to come back to be honest.}

17 May 2016 19:19:06
Dom Dwyer is pretty settled at Sporting KC, his wife plays on the US national team and they are expecting their first kid - can't see him moving back the the UK.



17 May 2016 17:55:22
The guy that broke news for at an put barton, claims it has happened, he's been right about a lot and knows other player who had a medical yesterday but won't say cause that while jellybean guy being contacted.



17 May 2016 13:03:19
Anybody heard anything about warbs having supposedly done a deal to sign niko kranjar.



17 May 2016 13:27:19
Bearsderbear where have you been the lasy week or so lol, mw went over to the states to speak with the player after the spurs game mate, though we ain't signed him yet.



17 May 2016 13:27:28
Kranjcar talks are being put on hold till after Saturday's final!



17 May 2016 13:29:37
Talks are to continue after the Cup Final as far as I know.



17 May 2016 14:15:59
yip warbs flying over there to try convince him to come here but his missus is and actress apparently and I don't think he wants to move without her. (according to daily record)



17 May 2016 13:24:42
its been said for a few days mate, apparently warbs flew to new York at the weekend and met with nico. not heard much since. I think it could be a back up incase the barton deal falls through he's a smart man so he has all his angles covered.



17 May 2016 20:51:08
Nicola isn't a back as he plays a different role to barton, warburton wants both if them.



17 May 2016 12:28:27
Alex Neil Says Graham Dorrans is Going Nowhere Because Rangers Can't Afford Him. Cheers for doing us a favour Alex, our money will be better spent elsewhere.



17 May 2016 14:17:48
totally agree h could have been a good player for us 3 4 seasons ago but the last two seasons he has been nowhwere near the standanrd that rangers require.



17 May 2016 14:00:19
A bluenose too apparently. Just shows what money can do.



17 May 2016 14:16:48
He's an arrogant person. he's no premier league manager. He's been found out big time.



17 May 2016 10:30:26
Rangers eyeing Liverpool youngster Sergi Canos, former La Masia youth player. This is according to The Independant.



17 May 2016 12:11:16
If this is true he would be a brilliant signing. I've watched Brentford a few times this season purly for the fact Warburton was there last season and Canos was a clear stand out from the rest of his team mates, its hard to believe he's only 19 because of how confident he is I would love him to sign for Rangers. doesn't look likely that any of the guys out of contract will get news deals.



17 May 2016 13:08:46
Also states reading are in for him question is can we offer a better wage and transfer fee which will be around the 1m mark.

Another winger though. Questions mw belief in forester and ohallaron.

We have at least 4 wide men already. I'm all for it if the lads a better player.



17 May 2016 13:20:22
Another bear totally agree with you i think he would be a great addition and fit perfectly with our style of play very intelligent player it really is an exciting time to be a bear even if we don't get every player being quoted it's some difference last year we had black law Hutton etc now potentially barton rossiter Canos added to what we already have really is exciting times atm.



17 May 2016 13:30:07
Wait and see if it happens. It looks like a number of potential signings will determine if we get into Europe or not which is normal. I really hope we don't go after Cummings but I think there is plenty of better strikers out there. Just my opinion.



17 May 2016 14:49:38
Cummings for me is an overated striker who has had a descent season looks better in a smaller team but like I've said before if he comes in I hope he proves me wrong.



17 May 2016 15:28:47
Cummings has proven his abilities over the past couple of seasons not just this one. I don't really understand the dislike for him, if he came through the Rangers youth system we would all love him. I for one hope he comes to us. Not many better young strikers in Scotland who are available.



17 May 2016 16:46:43
I guess he is a bit like marmite u either like him or u don't. I do hope that canos rumour is true and not just wishfull thinking think that boy is a great player and would run a mock up here. is there any truth in this rumour lads?



17 May 2016 17:43:43
correct me if i'm wrong guys but was forrester only signed for 6 months?



17 May 2016 19:47:49
I spoke to a very loyal and long time Hib's supporter who said that the would not miss Cummings, defenders had sussed his play and pushed him onto his right side. took a while to know his weakness that why 1st half of the season he was good, then the opposition learned.



17 May 2016 19:32:42
Can't see this being true. He was extremely good in the championship on loan at Brentford this year and is very highly rated.



16 May 2016 23:35:39
Barton to sign if we win cup and qualify for Europe.



17 May 2016 09:55:33
I've saw this on a few forums and although I agree European football would be a big draw for many players we would not be seeded and have to make it through the qualifiers which is not guaranteed so wouldn't think a decision would depend on this.



17 May 2016 15:33:01
players also look at how the team is doing just now and what players are being brought in to improve the squad. if he looks at the old firm and what warbs is doing this transfer window he might just want to be part of something.



17 May 2016 00:14:24
Dorrans deal looks a no starter.



17 May 2016 01:09:09
Personally don't think we need him also 1.5mill price tag which is not a lot for a player like him I surpose but i just don't think we need to spend it in that Possition.



17 May 2016 02:12:06
I hope you're right, Dorrans has been awful these last couple of years.

Norwich fans want rid of him asap if that tells you how bad he's been, he can only pass sideways, he wouldn't fit into our attacking style at all.



17 May 2016 08:57:37
I agree we don't need graham dorrans in the midfield position he plays but we sure as hell need joey barton and the midfield position he plays in and the steely type of midfielder we're crying out for, he's a quality player and none of us can deny that, I know he comes with baggage but in recent seasons he's curtailed it a bit, I don't know if we will get barton but I do hope we get him or someone similar.
