Rangers Transfer Rumours

21 Aug 2026 19:45:55
Couple of moves happening across Europe that will have a knock on impact on us.

Shaping up to be a fun run in towards the end of the window.

21 Aug 2026 20:02:43
Ehl, in a good way I hope. 🇬🇧

21 Aug 2026 20:03:52
Which ones in particular do you think affect our business, mate?

21 Aug 2026 20:11:41
Tell me you mean Ognjen Ugresic is happening, Ehl :).

21 Aug 2026 20:17:55
Ooooooh, Ehl - you big tease you. 😂

21 Aug 2026 20:22:45
Give some snippets of info, please Ehl.

21 Aug 2026 20:33:17
Taking a stab at it I'd say it is Bayern Leverkusen selling their cb, so now are in for Manny, and Villa making a few sales, so are now coming in for Raskin.

21 Aug 2026 20:41:18
Absolutely Ehl.

21 Aug 2026 21:13:42
Jayden Oosterwolde from Fenerbahce to Roma would maybe confirm interest in Daniele Ghilardi, as Roma are supposedly keen to move him on.

21 Aug 2026 21:27:40
This is us getting to the business end of the window then, lads.

21 Aug 2026 21:28:55
I've never known Rangers to have any good outcomes in the transfer window last min.

21 Aug 2026 21:33:51
It's always busy at the end of the summer window. Just read an article talking about Rangers signing a player, saying the window shuts in a few days, it's a fortnight today until it shuts.

21 Aug 2026 21:34:43
Villa will be a bad move for Raskin.

21 Aug 2026 21:40:53
Kent last minute best bit of late business we've done.

21 Aug 2026 21:58:55
Barry Ferguson's return was last minute back in the day. I think he done alright!

Maybe before your time tho', TJBB.

21 Aug 2026 22:34:07
Kent was a waste of money.

Was a bad signing imo.

21 Aug 2026 18:46:05
Cerny doesn't want to come back to Glasgow. Well majority of us have only been saying this for a few weeks now. Glad cerny has now confirmed it.

21 Aug 2026 19:22:27
Looking forward to when we finally stop talking about the Cerny-sized elephant in the room.

21 Aug 2026 19:23:28
Why would you be glad he's confirmed that?

21 Aug 2026 19:08:23
Fair enough, can you link us where he said this mate? Can't see it anywhere or did he text you to tell you he doesn't want to sign for us?

21 Aug 2026 19:21:03
Did you ask Cerny that or u basing it off Turkish media, who also said we made a bid why would we bid for someone with out asking first if they wanted to come back?

21 Aug 2026 19:50:41
He tell you that himself?

I can assure you we wouldn't have went in with a vid if the player didn't want to live here.

21 Aug 2026 20:14:39
Why the idiotic replies asking if he has been told this by Cerny?

A quick Google search is showing that some places have said he has personally denied any interest. So, the OP is just posting what he's seen.

Maybe look for yourselves before shooting someone down with these kind of comments. Good grief, man!

21 Aug 2026 20:45:24
Correct, Bbj, these are the type of comments I would expect from educated Tims.

21 Aug 2026 20:46:15
I've been saying this for weeks.

And we never made an official bid.

21 Aug 2026 20:53:53
Ted, educated Tims? - That's an oxymoron. 😄

21 Aug 2026 21:16:15
The guy couldn't get out of Glasgow quick enough, we can't afford 40k+ per week, Plus a 10 mill? Transfer fee & a signing on fee!!
In my humble opinion, this was never happening, a bit like the Ferguson & Dahl transfers.

21 Aug 2026 21:44:38
Dado, it's pretty obvious what he means. He's been saying Cerny won't return because he doesn't want to come back to Glasgow for a while. Now Cerny's said it. It can put the speculation to bed.

Not sure where there's any confusion there??

21 Aug 2026 22:30:24
Corny was the same as Sima, they didn't want to live in Glasgow, and no offence, but Scotland in comparison to France and Turkey there is no comp.

21 Aug 2026 18:23:31
Jamie Martin guest on hands across the water 1872 podcast has just said his contacts have told him Raskin in off to Villa for 18-20 mil and we would be looking at Ferguson to replace him. I'd prefer we used that money elsewhere. Ferguson is an amazing player as he's proved in Italy but don't think he adds creativity that we're seriously lacking

21 Aug 2026 18:25:46
If we go for Ferguson then I'm going to be really annoyed. That money is better off being spent on other players. We have a chance to make a decent squad. Don't get me wrong, I like Ferguson, but not for that price.

21 Aug 2026 18:26:43
He should stick to cooking.

Be good if he was right though.

21 Aug 2026 18:34:10
Creativity isn't the main issue in our midfield. Dan Neil showed he's capable of creating a goal on Thursday. Vanja is also the goal threat we have been lacking. We still badly badly need a number 6, someone who can dictate the play. Dan Neil was meant to be that, but to me he looks another 8.

21 Aug 2026 18:37:43
Going for Ferguson does not stop us going for others. If the rumours of further movement are true, then there may be quite a few changes, yet allowing for other players to be brought in to fill other roles.



We know there is only a little time left, but I'm sure the club are aware of who is available and how soon they can make it happen.

21 Aug 2026 18:43:07
Ferguson would be a massive waste of money. I feel 17 million could be far better spent.

21 Aug 2026 18:43:23
If we can get 30+ million for both Raskin and Fernandez that will help massively in the remainder of the transfer window! Hate to say it, but Celtic are looking very good and are due to sign yet another attacking player soon. We desperately need some flair and speed asap.

21 Aug 2026 19:02:32
Given the overhaul that needs done to our squad, I'd much prefer £17 million to be spent on 2/3 quality signings.

21 Aug 2026 19:04:08
If we can get £30-40m from Raskin and Fernandez, then £10m on Ferguson asking wouldn't be too bad, so long as we bring in another CB and two wingers. Still, can't see it happening though.

21 Aug 2026 19:06:11
That lot across the city may have improved middle to front but are still weak defensively.
Lask could have been 2, 3, maybe even 4 up before they scored.
imo they are not that far ahead of us.
Worth remembering, we have a £10m striker and first choice CH and LB missing.

21 Aug 2026 19:06:58
We do need to stop (even for a short time) worrying about what Celtic are doing and concentrate on what is best for Rangers and what we do. Once we get the basics right, then they might have to start working about us.

21 Aug 2026 19:19:46
Totally agree, wishy, I actually think there are huge similarities between Rothwell and Neil, both far better further up the park creating than sitting in the 6 role.

21 Aug 2026 19:25:19
Despite what the Raskin fanboys think, Ferguson is a better player. Raskin hasn't ever been great for us. I find it irrelevant what he does for Belgium. He's been here a long time and never looked quite good enough to be a nailed on starter let alone a player who can take us forward.

21 Aug 2026 19:38:45
You get Ferguson, u have your captain for the next 5-7 years.

21 Aug 2026 19:50:24
Whilst I would love Ferguson coming, I agree the money for him would be much better put into a couple of good central defenders. We are packed in midfield. If Manny goes too, we're looking at maybe 3 CBs, esp with the mystery of Souttar & we're also still looking at wingers who seem to be roughly in the 7-8 mill bracket.

If we offload a few more then a ST too. Still a lot of work before end of the window.

21 Aug 2026 19:58:52
Slim Jim 👀 Where r u? Time for your mantra. 😉

21 Aug 2026 20:10:55
Thought we were done with the Ferguson talk, seriously, isn't what we need & our midfield is already slow in build up play, he'd slow it down even more. If he's as good as people make him out, why is no one else chasing him?

21 Aug 2026 20:13:39
Agree, Angus, it's all we can do.

21 Aug 2026 20:43:12
I'd take Ferguson, captain for next 5-7 years, and it would be funny to see what all the 'Ferguson was never coming' brigade say next.

21 Aug 2026 20:54:51
If the club want to spend their money on Lewis Ferguson, I'm all for that.

It's not like we're going to buy him and that's all.

We're still going to fill the positions we need to fill, so imo, if the club want to make a statement signing to show ambition and intention, then I, for one, say well done to them.



The money we do or don't pay for a player is nothing to do with the fans or the player. It's between the clubs n that's it, let's just appreciate the effort, and he will be the face of the club like his Uncle was and like McGregor and Brown were for Celtic x.

21 Aug 2026 20:55:43
Me too. I think we could build around him, and with the certainty that he'll be here for 5 + years.

21 Aug 2026 21:17:57
17 mill! Put it in the bank till January.
Ferguson, way way overpriced imo!!

21 Aug 2026 21:22:14
Monzo account.

21 Aug 2026 13:26:47
reading that west ham are preparing bid for Fernandez

21 Aug 2026 16:22:43
West Ham and Atalanta av read.

21 Aug 2026 16:45:14
Bayern Lever too apparently. Or maybe his agent hawking him about.

21 Aug 2026 16:56:52
Thanks for the info, MrJNZ.

Fingers crossed. 🤞

But, how do you 'prepare' a bid and why do you go to the bother of telling someone you're preparing a bid? 🤣

Why not just bid?

I'm preparing to pay my mortgage.

21 Aug 2026 17:23:13
Take him. I'd take 5-10 mil for him and get another 1 or 2 solid CB.
I actually think Souttar is better.

21 Aug 2026 17:24:09
Athole, they have got the paper and are looking now for the pen; then someone will write 'we bid you £xM for E Fernandes'. I think that is what it means when they are preparing. 😂

21 Aug 2026 17:29:19
Peterborough have a substantial sell on fee. 20% is it? Ideally, need to be making enough to be x2 in!

21 Aug 2026 17:37:21
Bayer Leverkusen about to sell Tapsoba for up to 40 million.

Gms sellon off 20% very good for Rangers.

21 Aug 2026 17:43:53
Michaelc, 5 or 10 million and Souttar is better. 😂😂 You are having a laugh.

21 Aug 2026 17:46:45
Very good, Michael, thanks for the laugh.

Unbelievable!

21 Aug 2026 17:50:56
If this is still from the Turkish guy, scroll down and read some of his other stories. Madrid trying to get Haaland for 200m.

21 Aug 2026 18:14:51
Let's think logically here, fellow bears. As one minute Fernandez is a superb centre half and now he's crap. 😲 He's far from crap, and it's his easy Ozy attitude and thinking that it's too easy that lets him down at times, and if he gets that knocked out, his game, he's absolutely got the ability to be a top centre half. 🤔 Big Manny has everything in his locker to go far in his career, and because he's not currently switched on and playing to his best he's all of a sudden crap.

Behave yourselves; whoever says this form is temporary, class/ability is permanent, and he's got a great deal of quality attributes. 👌 If indeed Bayer Leverkusen do sell Topsoba, then I can understand absolutely why they'd want to sign Big Manny Fernandez, because they have a lot of similar attributes, and of course Leverkusen see that, thus why they're interested, and Manny is around 4 years younger into the bargain. 🤔 🇬🇧

21 Aug 2026 18:14:01
Can anyone confirm if Peterborough have sell on from total fee or just from profit?

21 Aug 2026 18:15:32
At home, my thoughts exactly about preparing a bid, what are they doing getting all the cash together in a bundle.

21 Aug 2026 18:21:04
Sorry, but what is actually wrong with our fans would take 5 million just to get rid and Souttar is better, who's been a shambles a lot of the time.
Manny like most of the team has had a poor start so now is obviously the time to attack them.
Who needs enemies when your own so called fans want to abuse you.

21 Aug 2026 18:40:27
It needs to stop, Alex. Much of our fanbase are selfish and self centred and only support when things are going their way!

21 Aug 2026 19:22:59
Don't know if it's true but read Peterborough have a 30% sell on for Manny.

21 Aug 2026 20:29:09
💯 Agreed Gazza, our fans constantly need a scapegoat.
Was Tav for years, or Dessers, Goldson, Rothwell, now Manny, Dan, Neil, Chermiti before the injury, Shankland getting abuse already, Naderi also.

Aye, we are frustrated with how we've been playing and not winning trophies.
But, for once, can we actually back the team instead of constantly trying to drag them down?
If you think players don't look at social media or hear the abuse in the stands, you're wrong.


They are the same as anyone else, they want backing, not told 'please leave, you're rubbish' constantly.

I'm no happy clapper, but back them, give them some encouragement, and see what happens.
It can't be any worse than what we are seeing right now.

21 Aug 2026 22:10:13
Saying they can't get worse won't exactly boost their confidence either, Alex. 😜

21 Aug 2026 12:32:30
any truth in the rumour that Cerny and cash for Raskin to Besiktas? seen it on a post somewhere this morning. sure it was on x, but looking at comments looks like the guy who posted was Turkish and he posts just to get follows, but 100% think Raskin is going. just hope we set a high price n don't budge. 🤞🤞🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

21 Aug 2026 13:19:28
Was the poster saying it was happening or that it was a good idea? Personally I can't see Raskin wanting to go there.

21 Aug 2026 13:35:47
No truth whatsoever.

21 Aug 2026 14:19:10
I agree, DeBoer, he'll want to go to a top 5 league.

21 Aug 2026 14:28:44
Cerny has started every game this season, scored a couple of winners.

21 Aug 2026 15:00:43
Wishy, totally agree. Biggest move of his career, and you have to admit that he doesn't make hasty decisions. A fairly switched on wee guy. He apparently has an offer from France, which he rejected.

21 Aug 2026 16:21:51
Thanks for feedback, a think Raskin probs Villarreal, at least he's no spat the dummy out like others. Still think we should be definitely asking £25 mill plus sell on clause. Also, if any club offers 20 to 25 mill for Fernandez, bite their hand off. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

21 Aug 2026 16:21:57
I get the feeling to what I'm reading that Cerny doesn't want to leave Besiktas guys. 🤔

21 Aug 2026 15:21:27
He has my star but they have been chasing right wingers all summer, Turkish teams are mental always make mad decisions in the market. Players playing every week scoring and then they sell them for a 35 year old has been. 😂

21 Aug 2026 16:49:43
Being reported, Cerny has personally called Besiktas chiefs to say he doesn't want to leave.

21 Aug 2026 12:12:10
Shouldn't be too much of a surprise to anyone but the club are actively shopping Miovski and there's apparently "no chance" he is still here when the window shuts. We want it, he wants it, his agent wants it, and apparently his national team manager wants it.

21 Aug 2026 12:24:19
Seem to remember a few weeks ago, John said a deal was agreed and he was away.

21 Aug 2026 12:24:41
I feel bad for Miovski because his move here just never worked out for him or us. Hopefully he can get a move that suits everyone.

21 Aug 2026 12:32:19
Crazy he's not been given more game time. Most prolific scorer in the squad imo.

21 Aug 2026 12:34:35
I read earlier he's on 25 grand a week, surely not, and that's why Rangers want to sell, not loan, as they would still have to pay a percent of his wages. I know there's a loan fee, but I cannot see that being a lot. 👍👍 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

21 Aug 2026 12:37:36
Had decent numbers for not playing much last season. If a chance fell in the box to Miovski, Naderi or Chermiti I'd bet on Miovski all day long.

21 Aug 2026 12:40:17
Gibby be about 15k same as Raskin.

21 Aug 2026 12:40:58
Miovski had a move lined up and agreed a week or so ago.

However, he stalled it as there is interest from another club, which he would prefer to move to.

21 Aug 2026 13:03:43
If Miovski doesn't want to put the effort in, then why should he be given a chance? He apparently doesn't train well. He stands about a lot when he was played too, looking uninterested. Miovski only had 1/2 seasons of being "prolific" his whole career, & that was at Abreeden.

Naderi's barely been given a chance as the striker, always second, & doing the donkey work for someone else (Chermiti & him work off each other & took turns).

He reminds me of Dessers, runs himself into the ground, & chases lost cause but hasn't got the service like Dessers did but has 2 from 2 as the leading striker.

21 Aug 2026 13:05:22
Miovski is on £26K/week.
Shankland and Chermiti are both on £30K/week.

21 Aug 2026 13:28:01
Or mibbe Miovski is a terrible trainer and doesn't merit a start. 🤷‍♂️

21 Aug 2026 13:46:39
Not a chance in hell Shankland is on 30k a week. 😂 He would have been on no more than 10/12k at most at Hearts. Why would we almost treble his wages to get him here when he was already absolutely desperate to come.

21 Aug 2026 13:52:56
Sure I got told Shankland is on 25k.

21 Aug 2026 14:18:02
He's on £30K/week. Numerous online websites regarding player salaries confirm this.

21 Aug 2026 14:28:35
He maybe trains poorly but Shanks and Naderi have been performing poorly surely that merits a chance.

21 Aug 2026 14:33:18
He's clearly dreading plenty on takeaways then! Needs to get into shape.

21 Aug 2026 15:17:45
Jasper72: Those websites have got absolutely no idea of our internal wage bill. They make numbers up.

Common sense suggests that Shankland will be on nowhere near £30k a week. Hearts budget means they won't be paying players £10k a week, so why would we quadruple Shankland's salary when he was desperate for the move?

We're being extremely strict with what we think players are worth in terms of salary, because paying too much makes them difficult to move if it doesn't work out.

It's why we've missed out on quite a few players this summer, particularly Diawara, because we aren't willing to put another £3k a week on the table to just get it done.

21 Aug 2026 15:34:50
Naderi is not performing poorly, he's scored in the last 2 games, got mom last night, and works his socks off for the team. It's up to Miovski to earn a place in the team by forcing his way into the manager's plans. Clearly he's not doing that.

21 Aug 2026 16:19:57
Hers these figures re shankland and Miovski include signitsigning on fees.

21 Aug 2026 19:51:02
Naderi has scored 2 in 2 starts, but playing poor? He's there to put the baw in the net, and he also runs end to end. Have u played the beautiful game before, sir?

21 Aug 2026 20:13:34
There is no way on earth we are paying a Shankland £30k. I have been told it's around 1/2 that.

21 Aug 2026 12:01:40
Anybody know if Pete O'Rouke is a reliable source? He's saying this morning we are back in with a fresh bid for Cozier Duberry and are close to agreeing deal

21 Aug 2026 12:40:51
His track record ain't great mate.

21 Aug 2026 12:51:58
Take it with a pinch of salt, then personally think we wouldn't be paying 10 mil for a winger.

21 Aug 2026 13:07:38
If we have agreed a deal of £8.5 million for Kim Min-Su, then I doubt we're going in with the £10 million Brighton want for Durberry, plus there's talk of Shunsuke Mito who can play both wings & at 10, would rather have him to cover multiple positions.

21 Aug 2026 13:10:34
Nothing showing in his feed.

But he's very unreliable anyway.

21 Aug 2026 14:09:07
WhatsTheStory was an article he posted on Football Insider this morning. 👌

21 Aug 2026 14:51:09
I don't know if Brighton actually want to sell Durberry, as he was starting last night in their European match against Tromso. But only time will tell. I think there will be at least 3 signings before the window closes.

21 Aug 2026 15:41:54
New, he never started. He did come on as a sub though.
