Mujad Sadik 6.2 Spanish centre half at Genk is a player we are targeting this January according to Sacha Tavoleira? Apparently he's valued at 7m. iv no idea the validity of the journalist but at least its a rumour.
07 Nov 2025 17:54:03
Cheers one Walter.
07 Nov 2025 18:17:32
Sacha is normally quite reliable with his info.
07 Nov 2025 19:05:27
Let's hope it's true because we need proper defenders in that back line. Never heard of the lad but could it get any worse.
07 Nov 2025 19:30:26
No judgement or disrespect to the guy or the rumour but I just don't trust that any central defender identified by the current recruitment team will be any better than those they signed in the summer. Djiga, Fernandez and even Cornelius. We all know the type we need at centre half although our Sporting Director and his minions don't.
07 Nov 2025 19:36:16
Checked him out today, transfer market says his height is six feet and just under a half inch. Can't say I've ever heard anything about him.
07 Nov 2025 19:50:45
I don't trust Thelwell to spend that much money on a player. I'm not usually one to pile on for a sacking but he has to be removed.
07 Nov 2025 20:05:31
Rb, here here mate.
07 Nov 2025 21:23:00
I don't really recall him standing out when we played them - bit thought both teams were very poor that night.
Seems a decent age, with plenty of games under his belt.
07 Nov 2025 21:59:36
Cant be good though if Thewlells inlvoled, every palyer we are linked with going forward has to be bad, can't have it both ways.
07 Nov 2025 23:33:27
We need more than 1 CB to fix our farce of a defence, Tav, Souttar, Kelly, Djiga, Meghoma, Aarons all gone in less than 6 months, we have not had a good consistent defence since the Goldson - Bassey pairing 4 years ago under Gio we need big solid units that can shut down attackers and ones that have pace so we are not left for dead by our opponents fast skillful attackers.
The current defenders are 2 slow and lightweight, hence team after team attacking us with much ease, with Souttar and Conrmelius probaly our best paring just now, again both gone in less than 6 months.
Oor defence has been our achilles heal for far too long and should have been fixed ages ago.
08 Nov 2025 01:06:26
Cornelian I believe is an obligation to buy. I think he will be a decent signing once he has settled he is also a goal threat. We do need at least 2 cb's 2 left backs and a goal scorer. Miovski was good at Aberdeen because he didn't face a low block every week so he could run in behind at Rangers 95% of our games we face a low block so no space, I think shankland would be the same if we signed him.
If we loan chermity out he might get some confidence back and start scoring goals, if he stays he will constantly be told he is rubbish, every media, Celtic minded media, Rangers minded media and our own support are constantly calling him rubbish he will never improve. Its not his fault we spent silly money on him, but we should be right behind the guy encouraging him instead of abusing him.
08 Nov 2025 08:23:05
Robbie, i believe Cornelius and Meghoma are options to buy - I don't think either are obligations.
08 Nov 2025 09:00:56
Robbie, it's not the supports fault that Chermiti just doesn't have it, no matter how much some wish it to be.
08 Nov 2025 09:52:28
Robbie - don't think Cornelius is an obligation. And I don't see him wanting to stay when his loan is up.
08 Nov 2025 10:40:48
Marco, if we have an option to buy Cornelius then he has no choice. He has already signed the contract which gives Rangers the option but the option is ours not his.
08 Nov 2025 11:27:26
Don't think your right with that one, DeBoer.
08 Nov 2025 11:33:52
8 million euros for a 30 year old is a nope for me.
08 Nov 2025 12:10:08
Stromtrooper1, I totally agree.
Anyway, where are are we getting this kind of money from (I'm sure we've got to stay within the rules)?
Does this mean we will flog Raskin at a crap price in the January window, just to raise funds for new players?
Ok, I know he's been poor this season but we seldom seem to sell players for their peak value.
08 Nov 2025 13:30:57
We are signing to many players that are work in progress, asbis the model we need to follow but what the current recruitment team seem to get is that u need more experienced finished article players for these young lads to learn from and there is just not enough.
08 Nov 2025 13:37:58
We should be looking to bring in at least 2 CBs for that kind of fee.
No for me at 8 million euros.
08 Nov 2025 13:40:59
Cornelius needs games to secure his place with Canada. I can't see him agreeing to join Rangers permanently unless we have a dramatic upturn in form before season ends. He will probably view next summers world cup as his own shop window before deciding on his next club. An option involves 3 parties all being in agreement. Both clubs and the player.
08 Nov 2025 13:42:55
Story was that Cornelius was an option to buy, didn't hear we had a deal planned for Meghoma and I hope not. He would cost probably £5million for a player who would be another development project by the experienced left back that we clearly need.
That would be the Jefte money wasted on a replacement who isn't even as good as him just like the Chermiti /Igamane situation.
08 Nov 2025 15:46:42
Kaiser, an option is a contract where a party secures the chance to buy a specific product for a specific price at a specific time. If Cornelius IS an option to buy then he has already signed the willingness to sign for us otherwise it is NOT an option.
08 Nov 2025 15:51:58
I'd prefer we had Cornelius as left back than Meghoma.
08 Nov 2025 16:22:59
I like Meghoma he will do well, but agree about Cornelius Stevie boy ?.
08 Nov 2025 17:22:48
Absolutely fork, I rate both I just feel Cornelius is better alt left back than centre back. If I'm being honest I think we could do better than Meghoma for the money quoted.
08 Nov 2025 18:51:17
Probably could bud?.
08 Nov 2025 20:39:33
Chermiti is appalling and Thelwell has signed him twice, the guy is consistently bad all round, in the air on the ground and is physically weak and soft. The CB lumps in this league can simply dismiss him
Cavanagh and his mates have been conned as they have no clue about football, hence the appointments of several grifters and family.
08 Nov 2025 23:21:09
Vernon so Cavenagh has know clue about football?
09 Nov 2025 01:53:55
Mystar are you basing him having a clue because he's a business man and worth a fortune? As I'm sure he never made his money in football. His appointments have proved he doesn't have much of a clue but he will need to learn fast and I'm sure Asa has eluded to Red bulls involvement so I'm sure he will be learning loads.
That said he needs to wise up and quick or he won't be long to feel the brunt of our disgruntled fans also.
09 Nov 2025 02:24:25
Didn't Cavenagh play the game Bigbluejim?
09 Nov 2025 02:29:26
Bigbluejim, Cavenagh was a professional footballer, for not knowing football like Vernon said, clearly you and him didn't have any clue about that.
09 Nov 2025 07:55:15
What does playing the game have to do with running a football club? Absolutely nothing! When I say knows nothing about football, I mean running a club and he has proven that he knows hee haw just now.
09 Nov 2025 08:36:02
Cool bigbluejim, but knowing nothing about football is bs like Vernon said, or do you now agree with Vernon he knows nothing about the game even after being a professional footballer, you probably know better eh lol.
09 Nov 2025 12:57:28
If Thelwell does know anything about the game, then all I would say is, he hides it well.
As things stand there is not one of his signings that have done the job they are being well paid to do. One or two have shown potential in flashes but that's it.
There is a phrase that even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally, but he has made 11 signings and not found one player who has made an impact. That is some record.
09 Nov 2025 15:16:21
Star you have failed to answer me yet again bud, does being a professional footballer (not a good one either) mean you know how to run a football club?
09 Nov 2025 17:26:19
Apparently you have played the game and yet know nothing about football ?.
09 Nov 2025 19:29:44
He said Cavenagh knows nothing about football, surely him being a professional footballer he does know football bigbluejim? am not talking about running a football club, what do you get from knowing nothing about the game? he clearly never knew he played the game.
The pain, I'm not interested in any your clueless chat.
10 Nov 2025 10:43:57
I didn't expect Cavanagh to play or even coach I expected him to understand who to appoint to run the football club, also I know many ex players who couldn't run a club and I think they would admit it.
"Know clue about football" one has commented let's leave it there. but he will find another to have a dig at, I'm too busy working.
10 Nov 2025 10:59:22
My star give us the details on Andrews 'pro' football career, I know but you let the rest know.
10 Nov 2025 12:24:47
Boomerang stop posting nonsense, you didn't have any clue he played the game, many users names you running now?
10 Nov 2025 12:35:09
Don't have a clue who he played for, just knew he played the game, you must have looked it up though, only because according to you he knew nothing about football ? whatever your user name is now, I just like using boomerang because you return daily with different ones, or like now running at least two.
10 Nov 2025 13:25:21
My star up a kye you've got a few user names, amateur or school footballer you said pro let's leave it there. You will find someone else soon to swing your handbag at 24/7. Buy a cat for company.
10 Nov 2025 13:57:47
Cav was a college goalie, professional means you normally get paid
to do the job.
10 Nov 2025 14:32:37
Coldo, massive difference again, that's clearly too much for you, I've only changed after a couple of managers, you have different users names running at the same time now, and have had thousands, you need more than a cat, help could be required with all your personalities.
Bigger, cool, but he stills know what football is about though instead of not having any clue about the game.
