Rangers Rumours Mobile

04 Dec 2021 18:21:15
Reading few people saying Kent and Goldson to Villa for £18.5 million? Nice bit of business if true? ✌️.

04 Dec 2021 18:48:25
Good business? Nowhere near enough.

04 Dec 2021 19:01:48
That would be 18 for kent so not too bad.

04 Dec 2021 19:05:36
Well let’s just nock it back with guys who are not going to sign new deals.

04 Dec 2021 19:07:19
Yate
I think 17 million might be a bit much for Kent.

04 Dec 2021 19:28:27
How is that nice? Add a few more millions.

04 Dec 2021 20:06:24
What people are saying this, Yately? Can't see it anywhere mate.

04 Dec 2021 20:12:40
Would be a bit disappointed with that fee. Kent would be looking for at least 20million.

04 Dec 2021 20:14:31
Nowhere near enough? Almost double our money paid for Kent who hasn't really kicked a ball this season and Goldson who can leave for free in the summer? Both replaceable with that amount.

04 Dec 2021 20:36:03
How good is your source yately?
Think we should get a bit more of true mate.

04 Dec 2021 21:07:59
18.5m what planet are you on. Plus Kent has a sell on clause!

04 Dec 2021 21:55:46
Be surprised if we sell any top team player due to what’s at stake monetary wise at the end of the season .

04 Dec 2021 22:41:14
I would be happy with that 17mill for Kent and 1.5 for goldson but av said there won't be any primer teams coming in for him hearing from my mate who's a forest fan that ther might be intereste from them there struggling in the championship and need a new cb.

05 Dec 2021 03:29:31
I think if we hold out for a few million more it would be good business- I doubt we’ll get much more outta Kent, by the sound of his interviews and what he’s done up here he’s a Gerrard guy and would don’t think he’ll be up for the challenge here anymore now the scouse crew have all gone.

03 Dec 2021 14:07:27
Being reported Goldson has officially turned down the contract extension. Had heard a while ago it was going to happen. I am due to chat to a friend later who from a short conversation already told me Goldson turned the contract down unofficially a few weeks back and Wilson was aiming the contract comments during the AGM at him. Wilson had a list of 3 CB replacements but Gio and his team have added a further 2.

03 Dec 2021 14:33:22
Yip, read that in Rangers now on Tuesday. It's clear Goldson is not the same player as last year, if he's not totally focused in Rangers then he can go now.

03 Dec 2021 14:40:21
Can’t say I’m surprised by this, seems to have had his head elsewhere since beginning of the season.
Really hope we get a deal done for Doekhi in January for a small fee and I would try the same with John Souttar but this might be more difficult.
Any ideas who the CB’s are that Gio has possibly identified?

03 Dec 2021 14:43:29
Goldston has turned down two deals one in May one in September, he has no interest in staying
As previously posted he is treating fans as idiots, man up and say he is away.

03 Dec 2021 15:11:39
John 25, he's stealing his wages as he's certainly not working to his potential.

03 Dec 2021 15:32:01
Theres been no new contract offer from the club.

03 Dec 2021 15:40:37
I wouldn't play him again. Money grabbing Cnut!

03 Dec 2021 15:52:27
As1974 we don't have anybody else to play there. If we had someone to change him out then i agree.

03 Dec 2021 16:04:51
You say he's treating fans like idiots John so do you believe Doekhi is treating his clubs fans like idiots running his contract down? We keep talking about us using the bosman market but here some are critical of a player wanting to leave us on a bosman.

03 Dec 2021 16:35:27
Posted before . same opinion Goldston just needs to say he is off without all the nonsense about not having talked to his agent. Good luck if he can get more money else where he will not be going anywhere he can win trophies. but if money means everything that's fine. thanks for the memories let's move on sure we can get someone as good for the money we offering him.

03 Dec 2021 17:17:08
As74 it’s football. What u make of Souter mb coming to rangers or doehki at end of their contracts
Last season lundstrum Wright sakala on frees.

03 Dec 2021 17:17:36
Sweep I think John's point is Goldson isn't being transparent. Recently he said he didn't know what was happening with the negotiations - but if he rejected terms then he obviously did. People aren't criticising the bosman market or him running down his contract, it's the fact he's trying to have his cake and eat it.

03 Dec 2021 17:19:28
No read the post fgs sweep, doehki has already came out and said he intends to move on.
Goldston says I k ow nothing, don’t even know if rangers are talking with my agent, this is why I say we r being played.
I have no issue players moving on.

03 Dec 2021 17:20:35
Exactly gers I have written this on multiple occasions it’s the market we r in.

03 Dec 2021 17:28:35
Connor goldson didn’t turn the contract down because he wants away he’s turned it down because he’s a money grabber if rangers offered him what he wanted he would sign the contract quicker he gets out the better.

03 Dec 2021 17:37:04
Correct true blue, sweep apologies if I am not making it clear enough.

03 Dec 2021 17:39:42
Would u sell him in January? We would be getting some sort of fee but I expect would be small maybe £0.5m-£1m?

We would also need to buy a replacement as we don’t have the cover in the squad at that standard. That’s not a bad thing to get someone in advance to hit the ground running next season but also has a risk may disrupt our defence and league for rest of this season.

03 Dec 2021 17:45:05
How much could we expect to get for Goldson in January if he moves on? I say £500k at best?

03 Dec 2021 17:53:19
Sweep it’s not like you to miss the point 😬 John you are 100% correct treating them like Mugs.

03 Dec 2021 18:00:42
Goldson thinks he's better than he is. Do you folk think Simpson could fit in? I don't know.

03 Dec 2021 18:04:27
Goldson doesn’t need to tell the fans anything, as far as I’m aware he’s told the club he isn’t accepting the current offer and will leave unless it’s improved. Can’t be any more transparent than that. Why would he tell the fans he wants to leave for another crack at the EPL? It would only go badly for him and our team due to the scrutiny he would be under. Club has a choice offer what he wants or accept he’s leaving in the summer and try and move him on for a few in Jan.

03 Dec 2021 18:29:05
As imo Simpson was a gerrard type off player, ie ball to feet in side box play football.
However I’m not sure he is physical enough for our game, if he plays like he did Ava Celtic for me he shows promise.
He simply can't get near squad, that is tell when we play a left back at ch.

03 Dec 2021 18:30:35
Good post and correct Scotty, but he says never offered a deal, does not know what his agent is doing, that is the issue blatant lies.

03 Dec 2021 19:07:18
I hope if we do get someone in they're a big mobile cb. I feel we lack speed in the centre half position. Teams opt for a long ball often against us so would be good to have someone who can win the foot race if needed. Big bassey gives you that to a degree but he's still relatively raw at cb.

03 Dec 2021 19:51:46
I thought goldson was brilliant against Sparta.

03 Dec 2021 20:58:49
Bee82 all depends say doehkis cub want 700k to get him in on January and we get offered 600/ 700k for goldson then I think it’s good business basicly straight swap but if doehkia club want 2/ 3 million n we get offers 600/ 700k for goldson in January makes more sense to keep him till end of season and bring doehki in on a free in summer and let goldson leave on a free straight swap basicly no cash cost makes good business sense.

03 Dec 2021 21:11:15
Hi Guys, new poster. I’m good friends with a recent first team player who has left and his brother is still at the club. Apparently an offer was discussed off the record with Goldson’s agent without a formal offer being made, and this was rejected. Both parties yet to come back to the table.

03 Dec 2021 22:11:40
If he has turned down two contract offers which has been mentioned, then move him on ASAP. Hopefully the club have players on their radar, players who want to play for the club.

03 Dec 2021 23:49:27
Yeah agree RFC92, financially makes sense if we have that option. The risk however is that the player takes time to settle and could that cost us the league which is worth a lot more this season than we would get for selling him in Jan.

04 Dec 2021 00:16:54
Duffy the diddy kept Goldson out of the Brighton side . I would look at Murray Wallace at Millwall and trust Gio to find something in Holland .

04 Dec 2021 00:21:26
Gerrard snuck out the back door like a thief in the night, it’s only obvious his Lieutenant Goldson is going to do the exact same! I’d rather not see him in a Rangers jersey again, don’t offer him anything else and get him out the door the sooner the better and we can move on- nobody is bigger than this club! Fingers crossed possibly Katic would be ready to come back, Helander back to fitness, pairings of Balogun and Bassey in the short term and possibly Simpson could realise a little potential! Then add a quality signing or 2 and defensively we could be sorted! I don’t want players who are here for extra money or are thinking of elsewhere.

02 Dec 2021 00:12:31
Rangers intrested in Dutch PSG player xavi simons only 18 out of contract in the summer but rangers could offer a fee and bring him in January according to French paper.

02 Dec 2021 07:52:58
Is he a 1st team starter EB, or another 'project'?

02 Dec 2021 08:22:18
Raiola’s his agent. wouldn't believe a thing til you see him in our shirt.

02 Dec 2021 08:36:06
Would love this one to be true but can't see it coming off. Really highly rated kid and Barcelona said to want him back. We going to be linked with loads so just need to see who comes but makes the rumour page more interesting than just the fighting.

02 Dec 2021 08:37:18
Looks like Villa are going to try and poach Leon king from us Rangers are going to have to get a move on and get an agreement with him we can't afford to lose hot prospects like Leon and Nathan we have to tie them down to new contracts we can't afford to have another Gilmour it would be a Disaster.

02 Dec 2021 09:04:39
He was described as best youth player at Barcelona since MESSI! Remember watching them rave about him on Barcelona TV when I was on holiday. He signed for PSG and got Riola the super agent to represent him which could make a deal more difficult to broker.
He’s out of contract at end of season though so offer of 1st team football and playing in Champions league could tempt him.
Riola did represent Haaland from Malmö to Salzburg now Dortmund to whatever top club he ends up at end of season so the pathway of a Rangers in Champions league could be possible.
Would prob cost £1m in agent fee alone but we would be getting a player we would sell for a sizeable profit for the modest outlay.

02 Dec 2021 10:14:35
Simons supposedly heading for Man City unfortunately.

02 Dec 2021 10:38:54
This kid is supposed to be one of the best talents in Europe.
Only 18 but wants guaranteed first team football which we have told him he would get.
If he goes to Man Sh*ty he wouldn’t get near the first team.
Hopefully Gio can convince him to come for 2 seasons then punt him.
According to reports he’s on £17,000 a week at PSG so we could probably stretch a bit more to give him the game time he craves.
One to keep our eyes on.

02 Dec 2021 12:45:34
As a said a seen it on line media don't no anything about it or the lad but it said GVB really liked the boy but it also said Barcelona were maybe looking at bringing him bk to Spain a don't think he would go bk as he left them for not been close to first team football.

02 Dec 2021 14:22:27
Zero chance of us getting him.

02 Dec 2021 16:54:38
Correct Paul.

02 Dec 2021 18:04:24
If they boy is good and wants to play most games he will come to rangers people need to remember there will only be 32 clubs in champions league and the fact we might be one will be a big selling point to players and there is no way the boys looking to leave psg because he’s no playing to go to Man City and not play boy wants football by the sounds of it.

02 Dec 2021 18:30:07
Think this story has been quashed already, no interest.

02 Dec 2021 18:34:20
There is more chance of us getting Billy Gilmour and we have no chance of him.

30 Nov 2021 21:07:40
Due to work commitments i couldn't attend our agm this morning😞I was talking to a fellow shareholder who was there and we were going over various topics and of course the lasting memorial for the legend sir walter smith🤔It's very fitting walter is going to be honoured by our club in a big way👌He was telling me that there was a lot of talk between some shareholders regarding out of contract players and scotty arfield in particular🤔He told me everyone of the shareholders he spoke to regarding arfield, want rangers to offer arfield a new one year deal and gauge it season after season as he's not fighting fit and showing good form to his different midfield style he offers us👌I totally agree and think/ want rangers to offer arfield a new contract this coming summer and i truly think we will🤔He's still got a lot to offer and undoubtedly has miles left in the tank yet,
even at 33 years old now👍Age is only a number, especially nowadays in football! He also told me that motherwell, hibs, hearts and st. mirren are all interested in signing arfield in a free, at the end of the season🤔I hope he remains with us🙏John25, have you or any other fellow bear heard anything regarding scotty arfield? 🤔I know John25 has a very reliable source👍.

30 Nov 2021 21:20:54
I said b4 gerrard was for letting him go, Gio May think differently.
We really need to b careful Defoe 39, Davis 37. McGregor 40. Whilst it’s a number, profile all wrong for me.
We r a team that is standing still.

30 Nov 2021 21:25:25
Motherwell st mirren could not aford him him he would want prob 5k a week.

30 Nov 2021 21:33:40
RFC on 16 k just now. Mb end up in England again.

30 Nov 2021 21:45:07
Prob John can’t see him sign anything under 5k even if guaranteed first team football with hibs or hearts think he will stay at rangers on around 8k if he wants more think we will let him go.

30 Nov 2021 22:01:39
I truly think arfield will get a new 1 year deal John25🤔.

30 Nov 2021 22:37:22
Yeah thinks it’s time to leave at the end of the season been a great servant to us.

30 Nov 2021 23:03:42
I reckon Arfield will be offered and accept a 1 year contract.

30 Nov 2021 23:31:18
Truthfully I think this should be the last season for McGregor, Defoe, Davis and Arfield. Progress won't be made by sentiment. You could potentially add Goldson, Barisic, Kamara, Kent and Morelos to the exit door. Not trying to be a pessimist but it looks quite obvious that they will be looking to move.

01 Dec 2021 06:00:26
Nothing to do with sentiment imo Otterspocket🤔Now that arfield is fit again he most definitely offers us something different from any midfielder currently at ibrox👌A new 1 year deal for me, no brainer here👍.

01 Dec 2021 06:33:08
I’d give him a year see how it goes.

01 Dec 2021 07:48:05
Dont think greegs defoe or davis will be at the club next season john.

01 Dec 2021 07:52:44
I agree Paul, great servants the lot but we have to move forward. 3 players pushing 40 not the way to go.

01 Dec 2021 08:18:00
I think if Davis gives up international football he could play another year.

01 Dec 2021 09:06:02
I agree Paul, great servants but we have to move forward.

01 Dec 2021 09:56:41
Mcgregor in past week alone has pulled off some outstanding saves. 1 that got us into latter stages of UEFA the other preventing us going in at ht at 2-2 which could have ended up costing us points in league.
Arfield has played well and scored in both recent starts V Hibs and Livvy and is a different option for us.
Davis is still playing well and is more consistent than any other player other than maybe Kamara in midfield.
Defoe rarely gets any playing time to judge but would agree is probably in final season on current situation.
For me it’s a long season let’s judge them all individually at the end of it and I would happily give 12 month extension to ANY of the 4 if their performances merited it.
If anything it works in our favour we get quality experienced performers with reduced terms in contracts and no distraction of moving on to other sides.
It’s not a case of standing still, we have players in squad and in radar to sign when any of these guys aren’t good enough anymore but as it stands it’s 12 month deals until they aren’t.

01 Dec 2021 11:04:14
The glasgow ranger that's also him just started playing. His save percentage this season is extremely low. Below 40% which is incredible stat really.

01 Dec 2021 12:00:15
Totally agree John we need to move forward and bring in better quality, arfield has been great for us and still offers something but won’t take us to the next level or make us money. We still haven’t spent any money in that area of the pitch. Maybe guys like Ivanic that are also nearing out of contract ( I think ) could replace him.

01 Dec 2021 13:42:19
Ivanic would be an amazing signing. We have to upgrade the menu or we go backwards.
We r trying to get to CL group stages, remember we could actually play two qualify rounds, it’s not a over 40s league we r trying for.

01 Dec 2021 14:09:11
Guys Scott Arfield is only 33 and looks as if he could play at this level for at least another 3 years. Very good player who runs into positions that others don't. If I were Gio I'd definitely be inclined to get him re-signed. It's a no brainer imo.

01 Dec 2021 17:42:54
Arfield and Davis will be our 'auld heids' next season, they are needed in the squad, at training, in limited games, in the dressing room, talking to younger players and passing on their experience. They might not offer pace or great energy any more but they will bring wisdom and professionalism.

02 Dec 2021 11:31:47
Tavs would you prefer Davis or veerman on same money
Arfield or ivanic same money.
Doehki for combined wage we pay katic and Simpson.
Barker 16 k a week invested in a new winger
Defoes wages invested.

Not to mention Firth, Middleton, hastie, kitten wage reinvested.

02 Dec 2021 12:29:17
John25 surprised at your ‘we’re standing still’ comment. I think you’ve got that wrong. Particularly with new management. We will get rid of a few for sure. Arfield on current form and shape at 33 needs to be signed it’s a no brainier, unless of course Gio knows of better. It’s a gamble getting someone and they settle. Fir me. Veerman needs to be signed if Gio agrees with all of us.

I said at the start of SG period I was concerned about 2024 contracts being offered and signed, that’s looking like a very real problem now as we have so many players ending contracts in and around the same time. That’s poor planning! Contracts should be staggered. Particularly if SG comes sniffing with inside info on agreements and clauses etc.

We’re certainly not doing enough with youth. They need playing time to gain exposure as well as seeing if they can make the grade. With exposure their value increases. If we don’t want them we sell and start a conveyor belt of making money.

With Gio I would suspect youth set up will be managed better.
