Who is Dor Turgeman? Israeli Cyriel Dessers being tracked by Rangers and Premier League clubs
The Maccabi Tel Aviv striker, 21, has been turning heads in Israel in this season with 17 goals and Rangers have reportedly taken an interest.
Whilst Vaclav Cerny was scoring for Czechia and Nicolas Raskin was impressing for Belgium, Turgeman was opening his account for the Israeli national team.
But who is Dor Turgeman and what can Rangers fans expect if the Ibrox club is to make their interest in the hitman concrete this summer?
According to Israeli outlet Israel Hayom, Rangers sent a scout to watch Dor Turgeman find the back of the net for Israel in a 4-2 World Cup Qualifying defeat to Norway in Hungary.
Turgeman netted a late consolation for Israel, coming off the bench to open his account for the nation on what was his eighth cap for the country.
The powerful forward has excellent technique and despite his sizeable 6ft1 frame possesses a quick turn of pace which can catch defenders off guard.
Turgeman is also comfortable with both feet and has that ability to drop a shoulder, go past a player and slot it into the bottom corner.
The hitman came through the youth ranks at Maccabi Tel Aviv after being picked up from Ashdod as a kid and wears the club’s number nine.
Turgeman also spent a season learning his trade at Beitar Tel Aviv Bat Yam in 21/22.
With 17 goals for Maccabi Tel Aviv this season, it’s little wonder Rangers are taking notice but the Ibrox club are not the only ones.
According to the report, Premier League Burnley are also casting glances at the hitman whilst Nottingham Forest representatives were in the crowd.
It’s not clear if the City Ground recruitment team – which is led by ex-Rangers sporting director Ross Wilson – was casting glances at Turgeman or once Rangers-linked Oscar Gloukh.
