Rangers transfer state of play on Yilmaz, Doig and Oppegard as one key upgrade appears pre-ordained

Supporters of Rangers watched from a distance as Michael Beale managed a significant summer turnover of players.

While famous names like Scott Arfield, Ryan Kent, and Alfredo Morelos moved on to pursue new challenges, the former Ibrox manager spent a lot of money to bring in a bunch of fresh talent, including Danilo, Cyriel Dessers, and Sam Lammers. Numerous players joined, such as Jack Butland on a free transfer and Abdallah Sima on loan from Brighton, however in the end, the now-Sunderland manager’s job in Glasgow was lost due to a subpar season opener. The Rangers supporters are once again anticipating the second half of the season after Philippe Clement was hired as manager following a managerial search. Clement’s stellar tenure in the dugout has included a League Cup trophy triumph, a Europa League 16 booking, and several significant wins along the way.

The Belgian has the opportunity to make a lasting impression on the team he joined, and he has already made a positive start by bringing in Fabio Silva on loan. With a rumored price tag of an astounding £35 million, he relocated to England. The expectation is that he may develop the skill and potential that caused Wolves to part with a substantial sum of money for the 21-year-old. Although he acknowledges he won’t be signing ten players as he tries to add in crucial areas, Clement has already declared his intention to be “very active.” Record Sport examines the most recent names that have been connected to Govan’s additions and departures in the upcoming weeks.
As Rangers assess the left-back position, it’s one that doesn’t appear to be going away anytime soon. Borna Barisic’s contract expires in the summer, and his future is still unknown. Although he has served Ibrox for a long time, it might be time for a change.
former star player for Hibs Josh Doig is well-versed in the league, and his time spent in Italy will have further developed his skills. However, rumors state that Torino is now in the running as more competitors from Italy and the south-east surface along with specifics of a cash plus player deal. It’s interesting that Doig is interested because his current employers are trying to work with the Ibrox side to deal with Ridvan Yilmaz.
Another player that Rangers have scouted is the left-back. The left-back is one of two PSV players who the Eredivisie leaders may let go, as we previously reported. Additionally, according to rumors in the, coach Peter Bosz is reportedly open to negotiations over a contract for the full-back.
The Twente player, whose contract expires in the summer, has already been connected to Celtic. He is the most recent name to surface as Philippe Clement’s potential suitor during this window.

He moved from Volendam to his present club on a free transfer three years ago, but it is likely that he will leave as a free agent this summer, or during this window if a deal can be reached.
