Albion Rrahmani transfer accelerates as Rangers see rivals with £35m to play with emerge plus Lammers and Yilmaz wanted
Rangers’ transfer activity has taken off quickly this season, although the majority of their additions are long-term. Philippe Clement said that the next step is to recruit “experience,” and fans are eager to see individuals who can help improve their starting lineup as they attempt to close the gap on Celtic. Albion Rrahmani, a Rapid Bucharest striker, might be one of them players. The Kosovo striker is only 23, but he has the potential to make a difference after scoring 19 goals and assisting five times last season.
The issue for Rangers is that his activities in Romania have garnered publicity. According to weekend reports, a contract to move him to Slavia Prague was “90 percent done”. However, a major hitter has apparently entered the frame. Serie A surprise package Bologna may be looking for a striker to replace Joshua Zirkzee, who is set to join Manchester United, and Rrahmani is thought to be one candidate.
While Rangers need to strengthen, others could leave Ibrox. Ridvan Yilmaz has been linked with a transfer away from Rangers after trying to make an impact since joining from Besiktas. But the full back began to find his feet, especially under Clement, and with Borna Barisic gone, the left back position could become his own. However, according to sources, Bundesliga new boys St Pauli and Holstein Kiel are both interested in the player.
Sam Lammers arrived at Ibrox last season but failed to impress, so he was loaned out to Utrecht, where he revived his career. That has prompted attention from a number of clubs in the Netherlands, including AZ Alkmaar, who are looking for a replacement for Greek striker Vangelis Pavlidis, who has moved to Benfica for roughly £18 million, indicating that the Eredivisie side has plenty of cash.
