Rangers Transfer Rumours 4

10 Aug 2026 17:00:48
Saw interview with Darragh MacAnthony and sounds like if we go through on Thursday will be due money to Peterborough as part of Fernandez deal.
Any ITK guys confirm this

10 Aug 2026 17:34:48
I'm sure the Peterborough chairman or sporting director even said something like this in an interview.

10 Aug 2026 18:39:19
Probably a few achievable add ons, Peterborough usually do well in their dealing in transfers. Think they had a goals scored one in as well, going with what I've heard from them in the last year.

10 Aug 2026 19:13:31
The man loves the sound of his own voice and takes every opportunity to talk himself up. It will probably be something like £100k to them.

10 Aug 2026 19:22:42
He's also been seriously talking up Manny's price to try and get a good deal. Hope teams listen to him rather than watch Manny play.

10 Aug 2026 19:29:52
He is the chairman. Frustrated.

11 Aug 2026 08:28:51
Manny has nothing worth much in front of him.

He is another example of a good footballer that some just don't like due to his style.

Yeh, he does make mistakes, but great Rangers players haven't. We wouldn't have them if they were as good as many on here want them to be.



Another player that divides. Reminds me of Tillman. How anyone thought he was cr@p was quite hysterical. But many Rangers fans did.

Mind boggling.

10 Aug 2026 14:41:44
The board have reported today that they expect at least another 5/6 signing before the window closes so let's hope that is as followed.

LB
RB
CB x 2

RW - Who is almost signed

10 Aug 2026 14:54:02
New boy coming in from PSV is a lw.

10 Aug 2026 14:58:04
I thought Cavanagh said "maybe 3-5"?

10 Aug 2026 15:00:22
Lad coming in from PSV (hopefully) is a LW or, at the very least, a right footed winger, and manager said yesterday we still want another LW.

10 Aug 2026 15:09:01
Cavanagh 100% said he didn't want to put an exact number to it, and said 3-5 maybe.

10 Aug 2026 15:18:32
We need 5 more after Driouch.

6 I fb we sell Chermiti.

10 Aug 2026 15:29:07
Reckon before the window is finished we will have brought in.

CB - with experience
LB - Penrice - loan to buy
RB - Kosta Nedeljkovic - loan to buy
CAM - once Raskin and Dio are sold
LW - Drioech
RW - starting/winger to compete with Yokota


Souttar
Nsiala
McCausland
Dio
Raskin
Gassama will all be away.

10 Aug 2026 15:42:58
Spot on BarronBear.

10 Aug 2026 15:44:59
My guess is the 3 priorities would be:
- starting left winger (Driouech?)
- starting right winger (?)
- backup left back

With any others up to the 5 being based on replacing any players that leave? I suppose, if we're lucky, we might get another CB in too. But I think our 4 are Fernandez, Godfrey, Makhant, Souttar?

10 Aug 2026 15:48:15
The CAM is a big one for me, I hope he moves away from the two strikers when we get better wingers etc in.

10 Aug 2026 16:00:55
Why is everyone wanting a starting right winger? Curious. Yokota looks good, he may well be the starter.

10 Aug 2026 16:07:49
Is that the definition of Chinese whispers, newIbroxstorm. 3-5 becomes at least 5-6.

10 Aug 2026 16:12:19
Agree, Dado. Think Yokota looks pretty lively & decent. Think he will be even better when he settles in properly.

10 Aug 2026 16:42:41
I think centre back has to be priority after Driouech.

10 Aug 2026 16:46:57
Agreed, Stevie.

10 Aug 2026 16:49:37
Bigdado, we need 2 in every position, mate, in order to get the best out of the squad and competitions for places.

10 Aug 2026 16:53:09
Striker is needed Pronto. A wee rapid clinical finisher preferably.

10 Aug 2026 16:54:03
From yesterday, I'd say Yokota is strong enough to start, and hopefully we bring in starting RB. Complete the PSV lad as our starting LW, and then a creative 10. Also need a strong dominant CB to challenge for starting jersey. Thought the African lad looked solid yesterday.

10 Aug 2026 17:00:00
Def Gdog, it just seems like Yokota has already been tipped for the back up.
Maybe Driouech can play both sides?

10 Aug 2026 17:03:21
Thing is Yokota can play central as well.

10 Aug 2026 17:03:34
BigDado, he can play both sides, mate.

10 Aug 2026 17:47:17
Driouech Chermiti Yokota would be my front three, he's still wanting another rw.

10 Aug 2026 18:23:14
He said 3-5 maybe. We need CB, RB, LC, AM, RW, LW.

10 Aug 2026 19:04:57
Yojimbo, Souttar isn't part of the plans. We desperately need an experienced CB.

10 Aug 2026 19:16:44
Three won't be enough, five minimum needed. An experienced left sided centre back, left back cover, a right winger, a left winger and a full back who can get forward.

10 Aug 2026 19:22:51
That front 3 capable of destroying opposition defences. My star. 👍 🇬🇧

10 Aug 2026 20:01:37
SWS, I agree but they need to get the ball to them quickly.

10 Aug 2026 20:12:46
Bigdado Yakota can play both. He's a great little player who I think will get plenty of game time.

10 Aug 2026 20:32:31
Agree, Blue89, but think we might need to get him out the door before we bring anyone else in. And, to be honest, I don't think any of Fernandez, Godfrey, or Makhany will be 4th choice. So I doubt we're going to bring in someone that will play ahead of them, sadly.

10 Aug 2026 21:16:42
We need a strong commanding cb with experience. I would honestly go for Godich
St Mirren, he would come cheap n definitely do us a solid turn

Know the league.
Solid, no nonsense.
Bags of experience.

N honestly, before folk say he ain't good enough.


He would be all over dome a they silly daft mistakes we have been making at the back.

We are crying out for a centre back like him.
Just causes he plays at St Mirren.
Don't mean he wouldn't do a solid job for us.

10 Aug 2026 23:41:31
Seriously, mate, we are trying to put together a title winning team.

10 Aug 2026 14:35:57
Driouech apparently on his way to Glasgow for his medical and signing, pics etc.

In discussions with AEK for loan to buy for Penrice apparently we are making one final effort for him as AEK want a larger loan fee than we are offering.

Nothing further on the Serbian RB from Villa.

All stories on X from foreign Journos so not ITK or anything.

10 Aug 2026 15:41:26
Cheers Ayrshire, hopefully movement both ways.

10 Aug 2026 16:46:04
Diomande's bid has been accepted so should see him out the door over the next couple days and Souttar is expected to join Leicester.

Rangers Review saying if we can sign a new RB in the boy from Villa Sterling, may be cover at CB instead of adding another CB.

Penrice we have asked about but AEK want a permanent deal or a large loan fee according to Greek journos.

Dutch journos saying the deal for Driouech has been agreed and he's on his way to Glasgow. We will still look to sign a RW to compete with Yokota as Gassama and Curtis are seen as LW options not cover for both wings.

Rangers Review also saying there has been no bids for Raskin, and he "might" leave the club, so not sounding like he has an agreement with anyone to go, so the rumour of a new contract could be true, but need to wait and see what happens over the next couple weeks.



It has also been said Rangers are "hopeful" Chermiti's injury isn't serious and only an impact injury, so if he's not out for long I don't expect a new striker to come in and Godfrey should be back in about 3 weeks.

So, in summary.

New RW
Driouech
New RB
New LB
Possibly a new CB

Out
Diomande
Souttar
McCausland
Cameron
Nsiala

The last 3 names but no links in articles.

10 Aug 2026 16:58:42
Ayrshire, think that could be spot on regarding the RB and Sterling moving in as CB. Could also use Mccrorie in there. Think you could add a 10 to your list coming in, and I think possibly another striker if Chermiti is out/ sold and Mioovski goes. Don't rate Naderi yet.

10 Aug 2026 17:02:56
Will he be in squad for Thursday's game?

10 Aug 2026 20:14:14
McCrorie is only good for Scottish contingency, otherwise he's nowhere near good enough in any position.

10 Aug 2026 14:29:38
EHL, you mentioned a couple of weeks back that the club was looking at Dragojevic's former Partizan teammate Ognjen Ugresic. I was surprised by this as it seemed certain he was going to Italy but he's still with Partizan at the moment so perhaps the interest in Italy has cooled down.

With Diomande and Raskin apparently away soon and us missing out on Hjerto-Dahl, do you think that opens up the door for us to sign him and do you think he will be a priority target for the club in these last few weeks of the window? Also, if we did go for him, how much would you expect the fee to be?

10 Aug 2026 15:19:35
This lad had some seriously good stats btw.

It would be a good idea to explore this further for sure.

10 Aug 2026 15:58:32
Ugresic was vice captain to Dragojevic, I believe. Just turned 20yrs old. 6ft2, so a big athletic lad. Valued at 10mil.

10 Aug 2026 16:03:57
Stevie G, I would be very pleased if we got this lad signed. I think he would give us the creativity that we're currently lacking. There would also be the added bonus of him already knowing Dragojevic. I could see those two working well together. The only issue would be the fee which I would expect to be a minimum of 10 million euros.

10 Aug 2026 16:05:44
Rwn, 10 million sounds about right, and if that's what it would take to get him, then it would be well worth it imo. In saying that, I'm surprised that a Serie A club hasn't signed him yet for that price.

10 Aug 2026 16:31:45
I hope EHL is still around here. He was practically blamed for the way we play in the live chat in yesterday's game, which, I thought, was out of order (I could not post in there as I have not got privileges to do so), but it would be good to hear from EHL regarding this lad.

10 Aug 2026 16:45:24
Requiem, I'll go have a wee look at him on YouTube.

Seen a lot of pinged balls from Dragojevic last night as I had told people to expect from him.

He also almost scored, so he does get forward more than just sit in dcm position.



If you've not seen a player play, YouTube is a perfect way to have a look. Just watch plenty videos and not just one.

10 Aug 2026 18:56:22
Super, you are bang on with that and totally agree with what you've said with regards to it being out of order.
I dunno how it can be his fault regarding the way we played. 🤷🏼‍♂️
Emotions were running high and a lot on the live chat was said in the heat of the game.
I've been looking out for him today and seen nothing from him.


Maybe he feels he needs to take a step back just now? But, I for one, hope he hasn't removed himself indefinitely. He is a massive contributor to this site and the page is far better off with him on it. If he's looking in, I hope he knows there's plenty people on here who look forward to his posts and value what info and knowledge he contributes.

10 Aug 2026 21:02:04
Super and Rfc55, I agree. If people have had a go at him over our mess of a team at the moment, then that isn't right. I didn't know about the live chat thing. I mostly just come here for info on ins and outs, but I always like seeing EHL's posts. He posts interesting info and is straightforward with what he says. Hope he continues to keep us up to date with any info he has.



Stevie G, I think Dragojevic will be a good player for us. I don't blame him for that decision that went against us. Wasn't a penalty in my opinion.

The YouTube highlights for players are a good way to see a player's style of play, but I think some people are wary of them only showing a player's good moments.

10 Aug 2026 21:17:31
And that's the issue with our fanbase. Blaming someone on here for the way we play. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I just can't!

I have to believe that these people are trolls, with nothing better to do with their time, rather than 'fans'.

10 Aug 2026 12:54:10
Paraage Marathe mentioned today at the shareholders meeting what I had posted on here a few months ago. The option that they are looking at to increase the capacity is lowering the pitch by 3 metres. It increases the capacity by 5,000 and would be done in close season to avoid disruptions. 👌🏻

10 Aug 2026 13:19:11
That's interesting, as it's always been the main thing said for increasing capacity, but loads of people have said for years this can't be done due to clay under the pitch, and also it would put the pitch below the water table of the Clyde.

10 Aug 2026 13:32:00
It would take longer than the summer.

But contingency plans are in place.

There are 3 options. One would add a 5-figure increase to capacity.

10 Aug 2026 13:35:14
Think they aught to concentrate on sorting the mess in the pitch before they worry about lowering it.

10 Aug 2026 13:36:31
Different engineering techniques now though, it's just whether the costs justify the outlay.

10 Aug 2026 13:38:35
Lowering the pitch and then building seating the front of all 4 stands will take more than a summer. I'd expect a year away from Ibrox if that's the option they pick.

10 Aug 2026 13:54:33
Depending who they get in to do it and if it's just steel and precast shouldn't take overly long if all plans are already in place.

10 Aug 2026 13:56:02
This is one of the plans I was aware of, but my information professionally would take 6 to 9 months.

10 Aug 2026 13:59:56
Man City lowered the pitch to increase capacity at the Emptihad.

10 Aug 2026 14:09:10
Wullie and WATP, my information is that this is the one the Americans wish to proceed with. Would be done in close season over a 2 year period. Minimum disruption to the club is the priority.

10 Aug 2026 14:15:35
Yeah, just to say I'm not meaning to be dismissive of the poster. I'm not doing that, Fourlads.
But to dig down 3 metres and add 6,000 seats would take longer than the off season. Just the pitch itself, digging to level, drainage, heating removal, then all the new infrastructure and the pitch itself would take time. That's before you get onto existing footings and foundations.

10 Aug 2026 14:21:56
Yes, although it's feasible, it's by no means quick or easy, so there would be undoubted disruption. This could obviously be mitigated by forward planning; that's the bit we missed on the last fiasco.

10 Aug 2026 14:34:19
The pitch is too small as it is. Not a good idea at all.

10 Aug 2026 14:36:42
I know you ain't Willie, mate. I am just sharing with you the information I have been given. 👍🏻

10 Aug 2026 15:08:07
The pitch would not be decreased in size!

10 Aug 2026 15:36:05
Having rarely sat in the club deck, would lowering the pitch by 3m affect the back row of the club deck from viewing the nearside touchline? Thus, not seeing the full pitch.

10 Aug 2026 15:45:38
I wish they'd get rid of the horrible screens that sit in the corners opposite the main stand. 🤢

10 Aug 2026 16:46:02
Lovenkramds, that could be a good place for more seats or even boxes.

10 Aug 2026 17:04:38
I know the corners of the main stand are significant with the Gate etc, but I'd be filling them in too. Easier said than done though, I know that!

10 Aug 2026 17:52:41
Four lads lowering the pitch has been discussed for over 20 years.

10 Aug 2026 18:52:21
It's been discussed, John, as have many other options, but none have ever been done. As I have said numerous times now, and as I stated back in June, lowering the pitch by 3 metres is the Americans' preferred option that they want to move forward with.

10 Aug 2026 19:22:26
Why do we need to increase the capacity when the team usually has created lots of empty seats by October, on course to do the same this season. We need to get the football side right first.

10 Aug 2026 20:05:38
ST waiting list and extra revenue WSL. 👍🏻

10 Aug 2026 12:15:05
Couhaib Driouech. Done.

4 year deal. Fee around £7m.

#Rangers

10 Aug 2026 12:28:11
Can only see we're in advanced talks. Is this a definite done deal?

10 Aug 2026 12:29:29
Cheers Stig 🇬🇧, much appreciated.

10 Aug 2026 12:30:26
Yes please.

10 Aug 2026 12:38:33
Yes, copied from club website.

10 Aug 2026 12:40:12
Nothing is done till he's holding the scarf.

10 Aug 2026 12:41:06
Sky says 6.5, mate, and it's close, hopefully he does the business, just need 10 other players to go with him now. 😂

10 Aug 2026 12:41:50
Not official yet. Still a chance he ends up elsewhere.

10 Aug 2026 12:49:15
Until the scarf pic I'm believing nothing.

10 Aug 2026 12:50:44
It is official, what's the story?
I copied it off Rangers website. 😅😅
He's signed, club has confirmed it on social media.

10 Aug 2026 12:47:27
Which club website? As there has been nothing on the Rangers one.

10 Aug 2026 12:57:14
Great news!

10 Aug 2026 12:58:46
Good info, Stig. A good quality capture. 4 more still needed. 💪🏻

10 Aug 2026 13:00:13
Already on the backend of the club website. 👀

10 Aug 2026 13:08:07
Nothing on Rangers website!

10 Aug 2026 13:25:58
Someone's talking single fish. 😅 I do think it'll get done going by reports though.

10 Aug 2026 13:29:05
Can't see anything on club website at all.

10 Aug 2026 13:34:42
I've already been disappointed too much this season, until it's truly finished. I ain't counting on anything. It's not the commenter's info I'm doubting, it's Rangers.

10 Aug 2026 13:36:43
Great signing by the club. One I'm very excited by.

In my estimations we're now 5 short.

Rb
Cb
Lb

Creative mf

Rf

If Chermiti leaves, we need a cf too.

10 Aug 2026 13:26:59
Can't see anything club website or official social media, which social media platform Stig?

10 Aug 2026 13:38:07
Stig, absolutely nothing is confirmed on official club channels. Looks like we are close but not done yet.

10 Aug 2026 13:39:03
which website Stig i see nothing.

10 Aug 2026 13:40:11
It's not from the official Rangers Facebook page. It's from a page - Frankygers. I do think this will get done though, just not quite over the line yet.

10 Aug 2026 13:42:30
I've not looked, but I'd stab a guess at Driouech's name not getting one mention on the official club site. Nothing goes on there until the announcement.

Deal is still being worked on with regards to personal terms, but it is close. No medical has been completed as yet either.

10 Aug 2026 13:51:32
Our new Moroccan 🇲🇦, maybe until it's confirmed! Normally I would get excited but because I've been so underwhelmed this season by everything, especially recruitment. I don't want to get hopes up. It's been the story of my summer.

10 Aug 2026 13:53:58
I don't know where you're seeing this, Thestigno1. 😲 I can't find anything at all on Driouech officially signed on any Rangers official pages, mate. 🤔 Until he's standing there wearing our jersey with the scarf above his head, it ain't official and anything can still happen. 🤔

10 Aug 2026 14:08:35
Stig had an absolute stinker. Nothing officially announced by the club at all.

10 Aug 2026 14:12:45
Excellent news, thanks for sharing.

10 Aug 2026 14:33:35
He's not signed yet. Apparently he's going to fly in to Scotland in the next 24 hours to seal his move.

10 Aug 2026 14:51:46
I think we have moved beyond advanced to substantive discussions, his Easy Jet flight has been booked, scarf above head tomorrow.

10 Aug 2026 17:03:53
Don't think he's had a stinker, just picked it up wrong, he's not far off, maybe 24hrs ahead of himself, but all good news, Stig. :D

10 Aug 2026 11:53:15
Last one from me. After the meeting, I was told that Raskin will absolutely be away.

10 Aug 2026 12:06:08
So, Raskin away and we'll scramble to replace.

Dio looks away also. We really need quality I the last weeks if the window.

10 Aug 2026 12:13:52
Makes sense. I think now is his time to move in and our time to get a good fee. But I definitely think we're significantly weaker without him and Diomande. Particularly where Baron and Cameron seem totally out of favour. I can only hope Dragojevic shines in his chosen position, as Neil hasn't done so far.

10 Aug 2026 12:17:15
Are we replacing Dio and Raskin with another CM or do the club think the adequate players are in the building?

We are crying out for a creative midfielder that can contribute G/A.

10 Aug 2026 12:23:03
What's happening with Miovski?

10 Aug 2026 12:35:23
We won't be getting any replacement midfielders. We have 6 midfielders that we can't all fit in already. More will be leaving if anything. I agree that none at the moment look good enough, but again that has come down to bad recruitment for another season.

The fact we never bought Dahl was criminal. Unforgivable to not sign the 1 player all the fans were excited about and wanted.

10 Aug 2026 13:10:44
Raskin and Dio out, we have Devlin, Chuk, Neil, Drago, Aasgaard and Baron.

We really have not seen Drago or Neil to really make that judgement. Neil got a lot of stick Thursday, but he was attempting to make passes that Raskin/Dio never attempts. Boy was hounded for actually making forward passes.

Yes, he made mistakes, but I won't make a judgement off 45 mins.

Drago, although out of position yesterday, I also saw him attempt risky forward passes that never came off.

So we really do not know what they can offer, but I want to see more of them, bored of the safe passers that have plagued us for 4 seasons.

10 Aug 2026 13:39:08
Ibrox 4 me, cheers mate, you're normally just about always on the button, mate.

I'm going to say your contact is maybe wrong this time. I don't see him leaving. I think he'll be here to stay another year.

10 Aug 2026 13:39:45
Now that we've brought in worse players it's time to get rid of the quality we do have. Keep up the great work.

10 Aug 2026 13:56:40
Ibrox4Me, do you reckon we'll bring in another striker if Chermiti is out more long term and if Miovski is sold 🤔 I absolutely think we need to mate. 🤔🇬🇧

10 Aug 2026 14:33:44
That could be more hope on my part though lol.

10 Aug 2026 15:47:00
The last couple of weeks of the transfer window is when most of the deals happen. Players leave needing replaced, players are signed, allowing for others to move on. Expect quite a bit of business still to be done in Govan.
