Rangers contemplate their next move in their pursuit of Joan Jordan, while Sevilla risks incurring the wrath of the law.

Rangers might not have much money to spend in this transfer window, however, Philippe Clement can still be creative as he looks to bring reinforcements to the club.

The manager is having to be patient for phase two of his summer plan as Nils Koppen’s player trading policy begins to take shape.

One area where Rangers might get success is in the loan market where quality can be found but without breaking the bank.Rangers could take advantage of Joan Jordan situation
Fabrizio Romano reported that an initial offer for Sevilla’s Joan Jordan had been rejected, there is though, a chance that Rangers will go back in for the 30-year old and offer to cover 50% of his wages.

Presumed to be earning £69,000 a week, it’s understandable how financial constraints could limit a possible partnership. Mundo Deportivo claims that Sevilla is holding out for a permanent move, and that Deportivo Alaves is also considering a player who played a key role in his team’s Europa League victories. They want to pay Jordan’s whole salary if they decide to send him out on loan.

Given the situation, this transfer might take a while. According to Sergio Escario of Mundo, Jordan was kept out of his team’s first preseason friendly against the Orlando Pirates, a move that has reportedly irritated the authorities. “LaLiga and the Association of Spanish Footballers (AFE), which sends out a circular every summer reminding people to “remember the provisions of its ‘Circular 7/2022 – Footballers secluded / as’, remembering that at this time of the season, some clubs remove players from the activity of a squad, committing illegal practices,” will continue to force this situation in Seville.”

“A soccer player’s rights, as outlined in articles 4.2, paragraphs a and b, and 17.1 of the Workers’ Statute, as well as the provisions of article 7.4 of Royal Decree 1006/1985, which governs the employment relationship of professional athletes, may be seriously violated if they are not allowed to participate in a concentration.”

Rangers face similar scenario as Jordan exit looms
For whatever reason, Jordan is being frozen out by Sevilla.

Yes, they have signed new midfielders but this doesn’t justify the treatment being dished out to a player with well over 200 appearances for the club and who has also worn the captains armband.

This could benefit Rangers in their attempts to bring him to Ibrox though.They may be eager to make a deal as soon as possible, even if it isn’t the best one for them, to avoid penalties or having a disgruntled player around the training ground. Strangely, Rangers and Sam Lammers are in nearly the same circumstances. I wonder whether they would be interested in trading?
