Great result today against Fredrikstad, now onto the the Norwegian Cup final next Saturday.
Cletus I note your team got the result you desired well done my friend ๐
Now if I may I would like to group together some of the rumours and links that I have heard or have other knowledge of.
As for right backs it is my understanding that Diogo Travossos is primary target with Hampus Skoglund being the preferred alternative.
It is also my understanding that the club hope to sign domestic or homegrown players to supplement the squad as rotation/squad options.
I personally don't have knowledge but have heard through this forum of some.
Ross Mccrorrie
Luke Graham
James penrice
Jack Milne
Elliot Watt.
Now onto some players that I have heard.
Henrik Falchener- primary defensive target
Tobias Guddal
Elliot Stroud
Silas Anderson- primary
Jens Hjertรธ-Dahl - primary
Jonas Therkelsen
Mihaly Kata
Alexander Bernhardson
Tobias Bech
Felix Beijmo
Jonatan Braut Brunes
Gabor Szalai
Now i am in no way suggesting that the club will look to sign all of the players mentioned but i understand they would be under consideration as alternatives to some on the list.
Also please don't assume this as fact, I bring this forward as a discussion point and rumour. We may sign none.

Thanks Aph, sounds like the club are hopefully quite far on with transfers already.

Thanks Aph, all your posts are greatly appreciated. It's always good to look at new players I've never heard of and get a bit excited by them. ๐ฌ๐ง
02 May 2026 23:26:46
Thanks Aphe. As far as I am aware. Deals are already done. Which I have mentioned, mate.
03 May 2026 00:59:32
What deals, Whitehorse?
03 May 2026 07:13:44
Thanks for the very good info Aphelion. ๐ It's going to be very interesting which right back we do sign to replace James Tavernier. ๐ค In all probability we'll need to sign 2 right backs ie. our primary no.1 right back and another good right back for competition for our first choice, as unfortunately Sterling is in and out with injury issues. โน๏ธ Aphelion, I know your preferred right back signing to replace Tav is Hampus Skoglund mate, although you have stated that it's your belief that our no.1 target is Diogo Trovossas.
๐ค I must be honest, I don't know much about both Trovossas and Skoglund and wouldn't know myself which one I'd choose. ๐ค I suppose time will tell who we sign as Tav's replacement. ๐ค

Thanks, Aphelion. A good round up. As u say, many names mentioned won't happen for whatever reason, but are good for discussion. Some will be ones were scout but don't pursue, others will be ones we want but can't get over the line, and some are just suggestions, but all are good.
03 May 2026 08:32:52
SWS, I have never said that Hampus is my preferred candidate, my friend.
I have stated it would be inappropriate to make a comment, as I do not know enough about Travossos.
Thanks guys, hopefully we can sign a good amount of the primary targets.
03 May 2026 08:43:23
Ok, Aphelion, my apologies, my friend. ๐
03 May 2026 08:50:07
No need to apologize, my friend. I would be delighted if Hampus is signed.
03 May 2026 08:50:29
Thanks for those rumours, Aph. Some interesting names there.
03 May 2026 08:52:48
Any truth in Victor Nelsson as a possibility?
03 May 2026 09:06:36
Not that I am aware of, Gvb.
He has been an ever present for Hellas Verona who hold an option to purchase at the end of the season.
Personally I would not be wanting to sign him.
Galatasaray are looking for around 7.5 million Euros according to the purchase option.
I personally would prefer Tobias Guddal, but Henrik Falchener is another excellent defender, and both would have significant resale potential, which would not be available with Nelson.

I don't have a great deal of knowledge on many, if any, of those players.
However, from what I gather, we won't be overly active in this market.
03 May 2026 09:32:42
I appreciate your feedback, EHL. Out of curiosity, which markets do you see us targeting?
03 May 2026 09:46:19
Why such a focus on Scandinavian players, Aph? Is this a new market that we are looking into heavily? Not against it, far from it, actually, just interesting to see such a focus on that part of Europe.
03 May 2026 09:55:07
Would be happy with either of the 2, Aph, Travossos or Skoglund. Can I be greedy and say I'd have both?
03 May 2026 09:55:14
Irvine, these are players within my area of knowledge.
Yes, Rangers are certainly becoming more visible in Scandinavia, and it would be a much better valued market than the English market we have used for so long.
The players mentioned are based in Scandinavia, Germany, and Hungary.

Totally agree, Aph. I've often talked with friends in the past, wondering why we never scout up there or Eastern Europe. Thanks for the information. Enjoy your Sunday, friends!
