Rangers Transfer Rumours Mobile

23 Apr 2026 14:49:26
According to reports in Portugal, Rangers are looking to bolster their backline with Moreirense defender Gilberto Batista. The report says the defender is valued at around €3million (£2.6m) and is a product of the Sporting youth system, playing alongside Gers striker Youssef Chermiti.

23 Apr 2026 15:53:28
Yes, we seem to be hitting on the Sporting Lisbon academy ie. Chermiti, then supposedly interested in the right back Diogo Travossos, and now Gabriel Batista. 🤔

23 Apr 2026 12:24:01
Anyone know if the reports about us trying to permanently sign Djiga are true or not? If so wouldn't his wages be a problem.

23 Apr 2026 13:05:06
The transfer fee would also be an issue.

23 Apr 2026 13:21:38
His agent was meant to have been at the training camp. Can't see that being allowed unless it was possible discussions of potential Rangers switch.

Im still on fence with Djiga. Can't forget how bad he was early on, but who knows if we win league and then sell Fernandez, the funds will be there depending on Wolves asking price.

23 Apr 2026 13:24:07
I would wager that it depends on CL qualification, but more to bargain with on the player side. Just my opinion.

23 Apr 2026 13:38:27
Agents are quite often invited to the training centre, or camps.

Especially for players who are on loan or who are coming to the end of their deals.

23 Apr 2026 15:24:58
From what I've been told, both the club and Djiga are keen on the move.
Up to Wolves what happens next, but suspect the relegation from the Premier League improves things in our favour.

22 Apr 2026 21:04:05
I am hearing we have sounded out Ross McCrorie about a return home. Crystal Palace also very interested in him 🫡

22 Apr 2026 22:15:59
Does he play RB now, Florida?

22 Apr 2026 22:31:57
No brainer for me on a free transfer.

22 Apr 2026 22:38:51
I wonder how many RB we will be quoted as interested in before the season starts.
I only hope that Tav gets to go out on a high, lifting the League trophy. 🤞🤩😇

22 Apr 2026 22:52:42
I'd take him back for sure. We need 2 new ones, so why not?

22 Apr 2026 22:53:14
I think you made a Boo Boo, Bee82. He did get the right brother. 🫣🤣🤣😭🤭

22 Apr 2026 23:13:13
Would be a good move as a 2nd choice rotation.

23 Apr 2026 00:09:12
Good squad player especially for Europe.

Play rb, rcb in a 3, and cdm.

No brainer for me too.

23 Apr 2026 07:03:31
Agree, good move as 1 of 2 right back replacements in summer.

23 Apr 2026 07:30:48
Really like Ross as a player and a person, would be happy to see this.

23 Apr 2026 07:33:07
Big Dado has another year on his contract.

23 Apr 2026 07:53:37
I didn't say anything about the wrong brother scrambled? Sorry, don't get what u mean. 😂

23 Apr 2026 08:02:13
Think you asking if he plays rb now meant scrambled, thought you were thinking about his goalkeeper brother. 👍

23 Apr 2026 08:24:56
He's not a free transfer.

Bristol took up a year's extension about 6 months ago.

23 Apr 2026 08:56:04
Who would we prefer first Ross McCrorie or Luca Stephenson? 🤔

23 Apr 2026 09:09:36
If Ross wants to come home, then we should make it happen. He has decent experience (at Championship level) and is a versatile defender.
Miles ahead of Stephenson, in my opinion.

23 Apr 2026 10:06:31
We should prioritise Scottish players, all things being equal. Would sooner have McCrorie over Stephenson.

23 Apr 2026 10:18:02
SWS, I would personally prefer Ross over Luca Stephenson.

23 Apr 2026 11:26:05
He would want to be starting. He has developed as a player so much down south. Good solid right back.

23 Apr 2026 11:27:44
Would be happy with this decent RB but can also play in 2 or 3 other positions. Homegrown and knows the club. As a free agent I can't see a negative with this one.

23 Apr 2026 11:33:07
Boy can play cb, midfield and rb. Would be happy with him.

23 Apr 2026 11:52:57
Ross McCrorie all day long! Played regularly now at a decent level, and is also very versatile! Luca Stephenson also very versatile, but DM is his natural position, I believe. Would rather have a RB who can play other positions than a DM who can also play RB. 😅

23 Apr 2026 12:22:52
Another step back for a guy who put the effort in but wasn't up to it when he was here. Rash in the tackle and injury prone. No thanks, not the way forward.

23 Apr 2026 12:58:34
1 Who says he is a free agent.
2 Who says he 'wants' to come home? Did we not move him on?
3 Crystal Palace, semi final of Conference League, & safe mid table EPL Team, what have they got to offer?
4 A good salary/ quiet life/ no hassle.

He would be taking a gamble coming back here imo.

23 Apr 2026 13:02:42
Would be right up for bringing Ross back. His game has improved big time over the last 2 seasons, he is now playing well at right back, 3 goals and 6 assists this season, has a good bit of experience and is a home grown player.

23 Apr 2026 13:06:55
McRorie would be a tremendous addition considering the Scottish n homegrown quota we need. One of us knows the club inside and out n was actually stated as being a future captain for us before his Ibrox career went stale.

23 Apr 2026 13:31:43
Sure he can play quite a few positions, even seen him popping up on left a few times.

Club trained quota.

Rangers fan, no brainer for me, always liked him when he was at Rangers, more experience now and knows what it means to play for club.

23 Apr 2026 14:34:04
I had a go at him once on here, and got slated for it (rightly so) after an Aberdeen game. I'd quite happily take him back as he has proven himself at what is probably a higher level than the SPFL and he understands what he would be signing up for, so should settle back in quickly.

23 Apr 2026 15:04:24
Very few dissenting voices on this one. That's a rarity. Come on home son.

22 Apr 2026 22:27:34
Florida wouldn't mind that, mate.

22 Apr 2026 17:16:14
Unsure of veracity of information.

Rumour.

Rangers considering purchasing the 49% equity stake in Østersunds FK that is currently for sale.

22 Apr 2026 17:55:05
Very interesting, Aphe.
What would the purpose of this be? Like a Strasbourg Chelsea situation? Or closer to an us and Leeds type situation?

22 Apr 2026 17:56:15
Aph, can't say I've heard of them but could that be a potential link up/ feeder team let's say, both ways with players leaving on loan etc?

22 Apr 2026 18:01:45
Sweden?? I've heard of them over the years.

This would be a perfect situation, absolutely perfect, if it happens.

We could send the players there who have got to the point they're too good for youths n not ready for first team.

22 Apr 2026 18:36:02
Thanks for the share, Aph. Appreciated.

22 Apr 2026 18:59:22
Good info, mate. Thank you.

22 Apr 2026 19:39:57
Ostersunds is the team Potter took to Europe v Arsenal.

22 Apr 2026 22:01:07
I have done nothing that requires thanks.

22 Apr 2026 22:59:56
Aphelion, in your opinion, do you think that this would be a good idea, agree with Stevie-G, would bring on the boys both physically and mentally.

22 Apr 2026 23:10:51
Scrambled, yes 100%.

23 Apr 2026 00:09:52
It would be the best bit of business we've done under the new owners.

23 Apr 2026 07:21:33
Aphelion u shared a rumour so get thanks. It's appreciated. 🤷 If we did, how would this work with multi club rules? Just confused now after Palace, Forest, Lyon stuff last year. Potter had them in Europe not long ago, so wouldn't be unthinkable again.

23 Apr 2026 07:53:49
Aph, roughly how much would that cost be for 49% and do we think that will affect our transfer dealings?

23 Apr 2026 10:02:30
Kaiser, it would not affect us as we would operate in the same model of Red Bull, I believe.

Cazedonia, if true, it would not affect Rangers' transfer dealings as this would be separate from any club business in that sense.

As for costing, it would be inappropriate to say.

23 Apr 2026 11:34:03
It's a small club, I've no idea, just making a number up, but I would say under £10million.

23 Apr 2026 14:09:46
Osterlands is a very small club in Swedish 2nd tier, and has a player squad value of circa 2.7 million

Average crowd around 2000. Significant mismanagement behind the scenes led the club to try to sell a share issue, virtually no interest from fans or investors.



They r now alleged trying to sell 49% of the club. Any buyer would not control the project.

There r attractions if we were to get 51% share.

It's reported that purchase price would be around 2 million euros.

Alphe, u may wish to comment or, more likely, not.

23 Apr 2026 14:19:09
John, I am not sure I can add more, my friend.

I would imagine that if the information is true then through negotiations there would be a deal to be had that would be advantageous.

23 Apr 2026 15:05:21
Cheers Alph.

23 Apr 2026 15:39:51
Out of curiosity, my friend, have you heard anything of a similar note?

And, in your opinion, if, for instance, we were to negotiate a controlling stake, would it be something that would interest you?

I note some of the comments regarding sending players to Sweden, but I would caveat that with there already being an outstanding academy in place at Ostersunds.



Personally, I would welcome the move that would give us a direct place in the heart of Scandinavia.

The club is in the geographical center of all Scandinavia and is the largest in northern Sweden. Having a direct pathway for talent would be a great piece of business, in my humble opinion.

22 Apr 2026 16:37:06
Gilberto Batista a player being linked to us in foreign papers. Currently at Moriense in Portugal. 22 year old right footed CB. Apparently we had scouts at the game Porto won 3-0 and it's believed it may have been him we were watching or it's Diogo Travassos

22 Apr 2026 16:47:47
Could be both Ayrshire.

22 Apr 2026 18:23:11
The only thing that makes me think Diogo Travossos wouldn't be signed is Rohl has looked to prefer players with a bigger physicality.

22 Apr 2026 19:07:39
Ayrshire, was told by a friend we were apparently watching both players along with Afonso Assis(RM), 19yrs old.

22 Apr 2026 19:45:56
If he can Batista Bomb Premiership strikers next season he'll do me.

22 Apr 2026 15:46:52
My understanding is that Rohl's assistant Sascha Lense may be leaving.

22 Apr 2026 13:53:24
Hampus Skoglund is being Rumoured on X and on Social Media this afternoon troops after the news that JT2 is leaving.

22 Apr 2026 14:12:36
Yes, he is one of the options high up on the list.

I spoke about him in February.

I understand that Diogo Travossos remains primary target.

22 Apr 2026 15:27:04
Opinion of him, Aph?

22 Apr 2026 15:32:30
I really like him, Mph, very much in the same mould as Rommens.

I would say slightly better defensively.

One I have advocated in the Aphelion agency for a while. 😉🤣

Would be an outstanding long term Tavernier replacement, I personally would like to see a more experienced player replace Sterling for the 2nd right back role.

22 Apr 2026 15:46:41
Travossos for me.

22 Apr 2026 15:51:17
John, I must confess I've not seen enough of Travossos to form an opinion.

22 Apr 2026 16:33:34
Already names appearing as Tav's long-term replacement over the last few days ie. Trovossos, Skoglund, Alebiosu etc. 🤔 Who is the better of the three, does anyone know. 🤔

22 Apr 2026 16:38:28
Hard to tell, SWS, not seen enough of Travossos and have never seen Alebiosu.

What I do know is Hampus Skoglund is an excellent player.

22 Apr 2026 17:08:37
We will be needing two RBs with Tav and Aarons leaving. We can't rely on Sterling, unfortunately.

But I would imagine it will be one of those targets then a cheaper back up rather than both.

22 Apr 2026 17:56:20
Who are you, Aph, and what do you do?
Long time reader and very few posts. I'm just a supporter of our team.

22 Apr 2026 17:58:02
Never seen him play, but if Aph saying in same mould as Rommens, then hope we get him.

22 Apr 2026 18:26:57
Anitram, why am I the only one to be asked to identify themselves and their occupation?

22 Apr 2026 18:37:01
I'm a pole dancer in case you're wondering, Anitram.

22 Apr 2026 18:54:31
Aphe, just ignore that question.

22 Apr 2026 18:59:28
I clean and polish Athole's pole, Anitram, but only on a part time basis.

22 Apr 2026 19:04:38
Aph, it is understandable why the poster asked, as you are all over the forum with a view on every club and player on the planet. He must think you are the fount of all knowledge lol.

22 Apr 2026 19:47:54
You clean his what now, Three Cheers? 😂 😉

22 Apr 2026 20:33:18
Oooer matron. 👀😄

22 Apr 2026 20:37:34
Who is anyone, what does anyone do, very strange to single out one poster out of hundreds, skullduggery afoot. 🥸🤔

22 Apr 2026 20:40:13
Nice to see you on Ger88, u good? 👍

22 Apr 2026 20:43:30
I've seen enough of the Blackburn RB now to know he's out of our price range, unfortunately.

Can see this lad going to the Prem in the summer, or possibly to one of the relegated clubs with the parachute payment.

22 Apr 2026 21:47:16
Aye, I'm great, cheers Fork, things are going well. How's your good self?

22 Apr 2026 22:11:41
Fair to middling bud, all gd. 👍 🔱

22 Apr 2026 22:30:49
Thanks Fork and John.

22 Apr 2026 22:58:02
Thank you John and Fork,

No slimjim it is not understandable.

It is a ludicrous question and completely unfair and wrong.

If they were such a long time reader they would not need to ask such a thing.

I refute what you say completely, I have spoken about Scandinavian players, Liverpool because the Edd supports Liverpool and I asked a question about Chelsea because of information I received.

Information that transpired to be 100% accurate.

23 Apr 2026 09:04:10
Love your posts, Aphe. Keep up the good work. 👍

23 Apr 2026 10:03:23
Thank you TF. 🔥
