No sign of Antman is he the one with the bigger injury?

If we didn't keep Souttar like a lot of fans say they wouldn't.
Kelly as well
Sell Barron like a big percent say.
Already 2-3 players short for quota for euro so that's like 5-6 shirt what are we to do in Europe go with 19 man squad?
We need to keep the best of Scottish that we as a country have that our club can attract and afford
Who replaces Souttar with. McKenna?
Barron? McClean? Gauld?
Kelly? Clarke?
We weaken our squad without those players c'mon man there's a bigger picture that most don't take into account
I'm looking for names to replace the Scot's trained and Rangers trained players mentioned above
7
22 Feb 2026 08:25:43
The lad Hamilton who plays for Dundee is a good player. He is not scared to push forward from midfield, and he has an eye for goal as well. I think he is 27 years old.
3
22 Feb 2026 08:58:35
Souttar could have been replaced with the young CB from Dundee, Luke Graham. No need to replace Kelly as backup. I highly doubt Barron will be sold this summer. More chance of Raskin leaving than anyone else.
Souttar breaks down with injury far too often. Those players need to go. Sadly, it looks like Sterling is another who cannot be trusted to stay fit. Ability means nothing when it is sat in the stands.
4
22 Feb 2026 10:25:23
Luke Graham is a left-sided centre half, and in no way, imo, would be a replacement for Souttar, RohlWithCheese. 🤔 Souttar is nowhere near as injured as Sterling, and he hasn't missed as many games over the last couple of seasons as he did previously. I'm delighted he's signed a new contract to stay with us. 😁
8
22 Feb 2026 11:24:02
Soapy, a no-brainer for an extension. Yes, he has a mistake in him, but his blocks alone have saved us from some doings over the years. He will probably drop down to 3rd choice with the ins and outs at the back, but still get plenty of game time.
6
22 Feb 2026 11:33:52
Cheese, how many games has he missed the last couple of seasons? Not many, so this 'he's always injured' is a false start.
7
22 Feb 2026 12:17:58
Souttar is our next captain. He will stay, as he should. Same as Barron. Sterling, unfortunately, has to be pampered like Roofe.
2
22 Feb 2026 12:32:44
Any Scottish keeper bench anyhoo.
Findlay, Hearts.
Barron is decent, but Devlin just as good. Other options too.
Penrice another option.
We were already light on domestic, not hard to replace guys we have.
1
22 Feb 2026 12:38:23
Market - Ethan Hamilton has been a standout this season. He looks like a Rohl player. Tall and physical, but good on the ball. He was rated higher than McTominay when they were on the verge of the Man United first team. Not sure what went wrong, but I can see him getting in the Scotland squad next season.
1
22 Feb 2026 12:45:17
John Souttar is the best last-line defender in Scotland by a long way. His job is to make those last gasp blocks, to throw himself at the ball, to make that vital clearance. Don't expect anything else, even though he can hit a mean diagonal pass, and watch him for what he actually brings, not the Beckenbauer some seem to think he should be.
4
22 Feb 2026 12:47:40
Why all the need for Scottish players for Europe? We never play them. Only Barron and Souttar are getting game time, the rest are just bench fillers.
0
22 Feb 2026 12:53:37
Sorry, you're all correct. We need Souttar. There was no alternative. Silly me.
0
22 Feb 2026 12:53:46
Just to point out that, if we are talking about keeping the required number of Scots for European competition, Devlin is Australian, so while he may be a positional replacement for Barron, it would reduce our Scots by one.
There is no reason why Souttar could not be replaced by a left-footed centre back, as it is obvious that Fernandez is right-footed and could just move over.
I've also liked the look of Hamilton at Dundee, tall and aggressive, but can also play a bit.
2
22 Feb 2026 13:00:25
Kelly leaves on a free in a few months, along with most of our 1st and 2nd choice defenders, who are either OOC or at the end of loans. Kelly, Wright, Tavernier, Souttar, Aarons, Djiga, Cornelius, Meghoma are all away unless some of the OOC players are offered extensions. Add other loans and OOC players, and our 1st team squad will be down roughly 12 players by the end of this season. That's before we sell several players. Summer will be one of the biggest squad rebuilds we have seen yet since returning to the top flight.
No stress though, I'm sure plenty of deals are being negotiated and finalised as this season progresses, ready in time for a flurry of summer announcements when the window opens and we can announce them all officially.
I would expect to see one of our strongest teams in a long time, and one that will romp the league and have a good run in Europe.
Until then, let's get that double done and dusted.
0
22 Feb 2026 13:19:45
I've never heard anyone say sell Barron. Absolutely brilliant pre-injury. Plus, Souttar is better than most give him credit for. Some errors, for sure. If he didn't have that, he'd be elsewhere. Btw, Saliba makes errors too. Even Gough, our greatest ever defender, made errors. Time to stop constantly moaning and start supporting.
6
22 Feb 2026 14:49:16
Cheese, no one's saying he's amazing, but you used 'he always breaks down' as a premise for getting rid of him, not his football ability.
1
22 Feb 2026 15:46:32
Forever, I also like Findlay, mate. Always thought he was more than a decent defender.
I know most will say not good enough, blah blah, but I think he's a good, solid defender who could be a 4th choice for us.
Liam Lindsay is also a very good player. I'd say he's better than Findlay.
0
22 Feb 2026 16:26:16
Souttar has been rubbish today.
Is the club still scouting Luke Graham?
1
22 Feb 2026 16:27:27
Carson, I'm happy to extend that to his ability. Not good enough, and he has a history of being injured. I'd rather Rangers replaced him, but it's too late for that now.
0
21 Feb 2026 09:16:09
Daily Record reporting we're entering into contract talks with Nico Raskin. Anyone aware of any truth in this? He's out most valuable asset so would be ideal to extend his contract and put a clause in so we can get some guaranteed dough for him after World Cup, assuming he plays and plays well.
3
21 Feb 2026 10:23:14
Yeah, man, barring injury, Nico won't be here next season.
4
21 Feb 2026 10:58:45
He will sign a new contract to make sure the club gets top dollar for him.
7
21 Feb 2026 11:09:36
He has never wanted to leave and has rejected multiple offers to do so, I can tell you that factually.
He loves it here.
7
21 Feb 2026 12:25:33
A season in the Champions League would add millions to the squad in general. I hope we keep the likes of Nico and Fernandez for that very reason. Even a good Europa League run would do me.
I think the draw we got this year just came a season too early. A similar draw next season, and I think Danny could get us to the later rounds.
12
21 Feb 2026 12:35:46
There is a buy-out clause in his current deal that we're looking to increase, while, obviously, making sure the player and agent are equally compensated.
In other words, it's not necessarily a step to commit his future to the club.
9
21 Feb 2026 12:55:33
If his current deal is until 2028, it's a wise thing to do, but not urgent. If he gets an increase in wages, and we get an increase in his buy-out clause, it's a win for all concerned.

Hopefully the performance level goes up.
3
21 Feb 2026 14:38:48
He's never said he doesn't want to leave, only that he will leave on his own terms, kinda like he did in Belgium.
People need to remember his time in Belgium and realise he is not a Rangers supporter like we are.
Maybe he has a soft spot for the club going forward, but not like us. Top team comes in, he's gone or working his ticket, simple as that.
2
21 Feb 2026 14:39:09
And as long as we get a decent fee, I'm ok with that.
1
21 Feb 2026 15:42:41
Ehl, how much is the buy-out clause?
0
21 Feb 2026 18:02:33
Slim S, I wrote six months ago that he has a 12 million euro buyout, which we are desperate to increase.
I was shot down, many saying not true.
5
21 Feb 2026 18:36:14
John, you did that.
We are protecting ourselves by not giving him another contract. If we win the league and qualify for the Champions League, I'm thinking he stays; if he is not sold for far more than 12 million euros, hopefully he has a great World Cup.
0
21 Feb 2026 18:39:07
That's an absolute pittance for a man of his ability and credentials, John.
If we're going to keep these buy-out clauses, they need to protect the club and not help the player more than us.
My price on Raskin would be £25m.
That doesn't mean we'll get that, but the whole point of a buy-out is to ensure the club are secure in case of an attractive offer.
Other clubs have hundreds of millions in players worth £80m, for example.
2
21 Feb 2026 18:52:07
You did, John. I can't remember anyone saying you were wrong; maybe a few saying it was mad the club did that, as I remember saying all the power was with Raskin and his club, as he had only 6 months or so left on his deal.
2
21 Feb 2026 19:03:41
Sorry, by giving him another contract.

Never noticed your post back then. I would hope that can be increased.

21 Feb 2026 20:45:05
Slim, I haven't personally seen it. However, rumours tend to vary between £10-12m.
0
21 Feb 2026 21:23:38
Would take £12m for Raskin, to be honest. Hopefully he has a good Euros and it bumps the price up, however.
1
22 Feb 2026 00:02:02
I respect you, EHL, and John, but I think that is a load of s***, tbf. He would have been snapped up for 12 million euro.
0
22 Feb 2026 01:24:19
Mentioned this a few days ago, yes, apparently talks have begun. Regardless, though, even if a new contract is signed, he may well be sold in the summer.
0
22 Feb 2026 01:30:45
Raskin's current valuation is 12 mill euros. That could increase if we win the league and cup. 25 mill is Bassey-level money, and Raskin is miles off his standard.
Raskin has had little success at Rangers, and consistent dips in performance and long periods of injury have held him back from achieving his true potential, which in turn has affected his valuation. Beale negotiated a 1.3 mill euros deal to get Raskin 6 months before he became a free agent in Belgium.
I think 12 mill euros is a fair price, as Rohl could use that to rebuild our midfield with 3 new young rising talents who could potentially net us bigger sale fees than Raskin. Dahl is a better midfielder than Raskin and has the potential to achieve a far higher fee than Raskin, as Dahl is a more complete midfielder than Raskin will ever be. Raskin is a very good CDM and nothing more, hence his performances improving under Rohl, where he is predominantly used as 1 of the 2 CDMs in Rohl's favourite 4231 formation, CDM in defence and pivots to CM in attack.
Even his stats for Belgium show he excels best as a CDM, as his higher performance stats predominantly show defensive midfield qualities, same as when he played in Belgium as a CDM.
If we get offered 12 mill euros in the summer, bite their hands off, as the longer Nico stays without extensions the less money we will reap on his sale. Sell him in the summer and reinvest in new talents.
Likely he will be on the bench at the World Cup for Belgium if all their key top-five league midfielders are 100% fit. If he gets selected for the World Cup, in such a prestigious competition that every country wants to win, there are always surprising non-selections by managers for various reasons.
Best of luck to the lad, both for the World Cup and wherever he ends up going after this season. Under Rohl, I think Raskin and Barron were an excellent CDM pairing, more on the defensive side, as Diomande and Chukwuani make an excellent pairing too, more on the attacking side.
0
22 Feb 2026 06:13:40
I think you'll find that the buyout clause will increase to anything around the £15million-£20million mark on Nico Raskin if he does sign a new, longer-term contract on a bigger salary. 🤔 I honestly think Raskin would be happy enough to do that, and clearly loves playing for Rangers. 👍 🇬🇧
3
22 Feb 2026 06:29:22
Quite interesting that no teams took a punt at £10-£12m buy out in the winter. Would be pleased to hear if the player turned down a move and is looking to extend.
I really like Raskin and hope he stays but I don't think he's irreplaceable.
1
22 Feb 2026 09:06:30
When Raskin first arrived, he made it clear he sees his future in England, and I believe he even mentioned Chelsea specifically. Buyout clauses aren't normally placed in contracts, so if there is one there, the player or his agent has put it there.
If a bid from England came in, they wouldn't want a hefty price tag standing in the way of any potential move. Buyout clauses aren't simply placed there to protect the club, as someone else wrote. They are often there for the benefit of the player.
1
22 Feb 2026 09:33:04
Stevie, the whole point of a buyout clause is to protect the player, not the club.
Let's not forget that Raskin, for half of his contract, barely played games due to injury or being out of favour.
We woulda taken 10 mill for him and ran 1.5 years ago.
0
22 Feb 2026 09:58:45
We should be building our team around Raskin, making him captain and letting him play his natural game.

If Celtic are getting offered 25m for Engles, how much will Rangers get offered for Raskin? It should be way more than 12m euros. Hopefully he has a great World Cup.
0
22 Feb 2026 13:10:58
Raskin did say in an interview his dream move would be Chelsea, but with the billions they squander trying to buy success, Raskin ain't ever getting a move there. Belgium or Holland are more his level.

20 Feb 2026 18:56:55
Alright guys, posted before but got got absolutely slated and called a tim haha, so here goes.
I know a few people in the media here in Scotland and 1 down south, there is serious interest in Fernandez from down south and in France with lens apparently having had scouts over. Also Rommens apparently has told the management team he isn't happy here and wants out in the summer( no idea why) this comes from a guy I highly trust and have no reason to doubt his info.
2
20 Feb 2026 19:42:45
Why on earth would Rommens want to leave already?
11
20 Feb 2026 19:49:48
If that's Rommens playing while he is unhappy, can't wait to see him with a smile on his face.
12
20 Feb 2026 19:54:05
The Rommens part is complete nonsense, and I can 100% confirm that from someone very close to the squad. Fernandez, it is widely known, is being scouted by multiple European and English sides.
10
20 Feb 2026 19:54:23
Not going to slaughter you, but there is no way Rommens has said he wants out less than 6 weeks here.
10
20 Feb 2026 20:36:49
I'm led to believe Tuur left Westerlo for 3.6 million with his team due a 15% cut of his future sale. He was supposedly only making 3k a week in Belgium and is now on 8/9k a week at RFC, so jumping ship after less than 2 months, whilst getting 3x his old wages and living in elegant and expensive accommodation, paid for by the club, seems unlikely. If he isn't happy, slap 10 million on him and let him go in May.
No more room for sentiment for our squad. It's a business. Losing out on vast transfer fees, Morelos, Kent, etc. is a thing of the past. Especially now that qualifying for the Champions League will be almost impossible due to all other Scottish teams being embarrassing in Europe, all transfer offers will be considered.
6
20 Feb 2026 20:52:21
I can see why you were called a tim last time

I can 150% confirm that The OPs post and info us utter tripe,
The 2 clubs at the top of the interest pack for Fernandez are top quality bundesliga clubs, Borrusia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen, Rommens is very happy at Ibrox
and his best performances are yet to come, 2 gubbins for coming for Celtic soon are you crapping it OP you should be with your straw hat defence that's going to get ripped wide open by our overloads, beating Hearts isn't for everyone ;)
The conference league awaits thee.

The views of some on here are baffling. I had another username, and that is why it says my first post. All I can do is post the info that's been passed on to me. Regardless of what Rommens is being paid, or where he is staying, that doesn't necessarily mean he is happy.
Also, I'm being told that Fernandez to Lens, as I also stated, has serious traction.

Rumour from X. Don't know if the guy is genuine.
Rangers are aware of the interest shown in Emmanuel Fernandez.
Chelsea, Arsenal and Bayern Munich are among the clubs rumoured to be keen on signing the defender.
Thus far, no approaches have been made for the 22-year-old.
He would cost north of £10m this summer.
1
20 Feb 2026 15:22:20
If the big man keeps scoring, then I'd be wanting at least what we got for Bassey.

50 million more like.

There seems to be a lot of genuine interest from Germany.
Would be an incredible bit of business.
4
20 Feb 2026 15:33:30
I'd like another season with him. I don't think he's anywhere near as good as he can develop into yet, so we can get far more value off of him after another year.
4
20 Feb 2026 15:56:54
Yeah 25 million north of 10 million.
3
20 Feb 2026 16:07:32
The Peterborough chairman did an interview with SSN, stating they had a substantial sell-on %. Whether that is tied only to the profit we make on any sale, or to the full fee itself, I believe will determine where we start the asking price.
2
20 Feb 2026 16:27:56
Well, the lad is 25 in summer, so that likely tells you how much truth is in it.
2
20 Feb 2026 16:29:18
£10m simply won't cut it. We paid £2.5 to £3m for him, and Peterborough have a hefty sell-on, so, for me, the bidding starts no lower than £15m if it's the teams mentioned.
1
20 Feb 2026 16:57:53
Watp, not old for a cb.

20 Feb 2026 17:24:16
Are sell-ons not always based on profit? If not, that's crazy, as in some scenarios the selling team could effectively make a loss.

Not talking about his age, My Star. I'm talking about the quality and accuracy of the reporting.
0
20 Feb 2026 18:17:01
Defo more than 10m, as his old club have a hefty sell-on in the deal, apparently, so we will be looking for a big fee, and, to be fair, if the teams that are rumoured are true, we should have no problem getting 20million plus, like Bassey.
2
20 Feb 2026 19:23:24
Listen, the clubs who want him will affect the fee we can get right away.
I'd quote EUR20m plus 10% sell-on.
0
20 Feb 2026 19:55:52
Selling him for 10m is not an incredible bit of business. Aye, if we signed him for 50k. But we didn't. An incredible bit of business would be north of 20m. I'm not saying that's what he is worth, btw.
0
21 Feb 2026 06:13:09
I honestly reckon we'd accept a bid of something between £10million-£15million for big Manny Fernandez, with add-ons and a sell-on fee percentage. 🤔 I didn't hear anything about Chelsea, Arsenal, or even Bayern Munich being interested in him, but I heard both Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen were very interested in signing him, along with an unnamed English Premier League club.
🤔 I also have the feeling that it will be a German club who buys Fernandez from us. 🤔
1
21 Feb 2026 09:02:22
If true, the teams that are interested in Fernandez should start the bidding at £20m.
1
21 Feb 2026 11:11:26
I would want way more than 10 for him.
And also, I would keep him.
Especially for European football next season.
And possibly a title defence.
1
21 Feb 2026 12:12:15
Big issue is Fernandes has a sell on clause in his contract. His sell on for Peterborough is 20 % of profit.
Appeared we r talking re pay rise and remove fee.
Same re Raskin.
1
21 Feb 2026 14:44:44
John, as I said, big sell-on. People seem to have forgotten that he also qualifies as domestic-trained for English clubs, which pushes his valuation up, just like it would for us buying Scottish players.

Also heard we are looking at a young Spanish defender who plays in Croatia. No name unfortunately.
1
20 Feb 2026 14:18:10
Raul Torriente, Spanish centre-back, plays for Zagreb according to Transfermarkt. Maybe him.
1
20 Feb 2026 14:30:50
Dominguez?
0
20 Feb 2026 15:17:11
Wishy, he is the only Spanish defender I can see registered to a side (Dinamo Zagreb) currently playing in the Croatian top flight.
Also, interesting to see Hugo Guillamon is now at Hajduk Split. He is more of a 6, who can also play in the back four if required.
He had a lot of hype when he was younger at Valencia. He is soon to turn 27, so he could perhaps be a slightly more experienced head to add to the squad?
4
20 Feb 2026 15:34:07
I remember Guillamon from FM, Legal.

Dominguez was schooled in La Masia. A tip from Hansi Flick, possibly. 🤷
0
20 Feb 2026 16:33:15
Wishy, yes, good player. Three caps for Spain a few years back. Turning 27 suggests he's not the player alluded to by the Op.
I missed Sergi Dominguez from the Spanish players currently in Croatia. I don't know much about him, but the La Masia schooling means he's probably the link, as Angus appropriately alludes to.

Sorry troops, never got a name.

20 Feb 2026 17:14:13
MPH, there are only a limited number of Spanish defenders playing in Croatia, so it is easier to have a guess at with the information you gave out. A couple of them look decent as well.
Throwing another element into it, Alaves seem to have some sort of loan agreement with NK Istra 1961.
It seems that Dani Olmo playing in Croatia for a while has made it (slightly?) a more popular destination for Spanish players.

Sam of Orange, which Dominguez, Carlos or Sergi, of the 2 Spanish centre halves are we interested in, mate? 🤔

Heard we are looking at Hungarian RB, Bolla who plays in Austria.

Rapid Vienna. Mph, cheers, mate. Just had a quick look at him. I see Wolves signed him around five years ago. Not sure if he played for them; he seemed to have been loaned out a couple of seasons, then joined Vienna on a free.

I know no one doubted me but as a new poster on this site you sometimes get judged a bit quickly.
As i said I don't know anything about transfers but buildings, land, maintenance and future development I tend to get straight away.
As you will see I said about the amount of tickets for the old firm game.
I look forward to keep bringing you posts in the future and what I have heard about Ibrox (development) very exciting times ahead.

Worried about being judged? Stuff everyone. This is a site where nobody affects anything to do with real life. It's where I come when I'm on the wine. Hence the name. I work very hard. I don't play hard because I can't be arsed to write rubbish to wind people up.
If I see anything interesting or amusing, I'll read it, but you'll never see a comment from me talking down to or criticising anyone. Unless it's 10 million pounds chermissy. Rumours are rumours. I'm rumoured to be Cristiano Ronaldo, by the way.

Come on WATP, give us a wee bit more. Would love to hear about any ideas on future expansion etc. You know you want to. 😉

So, short term this year is small maintenance work, a fresh lick of paint, and an overview of the current structure.
As you can guess, they are reviewing capacity, and the initial talks are about how we can keep Ibrox traditional while bringing modern features and technology to the match day experience.
The thing I am excited about in the short term is that they are reviewing wasteland and how they can make a better fan day experience. None of this is confirmed; it is just a suggestion, a bit like the Nou Camp.
Where we have wasteland, like car parking space or advertising boards, could we build on this land for food, drinks, entertainment and bars?
All just at the suggestion stage, but I am excited at the level of investment these guys are preparing to invest.

We should re-look at the hotel and casino.

Great post, WATP. Surely filling in the corners would be a great start? There's got to be space for about another 5,000 fans in those corners. Easier said than done, I suppose.

I'm the air we breathe out. 👍
WATP, anyone else reading that's in the know, 2 questions.
Will we complete the plan to put a cantilever on Broomloan in the short term, or has this been completely put to one side?
Where are we with lowering the pitch or filling in the corners to increase capacity? How far in the future would that be, if indeed even viable?

Club deck on the Sandy Jardine Stand, cantilever on the Broomloan, and fill in the corners. Stadium would look dynamite.

WATP, you might be able to answer, but does filling in the corners not normally cause issues with the pitch due to poor grass growth? I thought I read that years ago.

Filling in the corners can cause an issue.
Light wind helps growth of grass roots; closing off the corners may impact the grass due to dehydration of the pitch.
The corners are also access for security, fire exits, and an access way for the emergency services.
I have heard we are reviewing the structure just now.
Then you can blueprint, ideally, where we can improve capacity.
I honestly think, in my experience, small areas will be first to increase capacity, not a full stand being developed, just in case people think we are building the next Camp Nou. Ha.

Sorry, but it's always been the Nou Camp for me. Camp Nou sounds like something out of a Carry On film. 😉👍
