Rangers want Bojan Miovski transfer to replace Cyriel Dessers amid Connor Barron dispute

Derek Ferguson thinks Rangers’ bad connection with Aberdeen will prevent them from signing Bojan Miovski. As a substitute for Cyriel Dessers, the Light Blues are interested in the North Macedonian striker, but they do not want to be kept hostage by the Dons, the Scottish Daily Mail (1 July) reports. A tribunal is expected as a result of the two parties’ inability to come to an agreement about Connor Barron’s compensation, the midfield player signed by the Green Bay Packers. Because of this, Ferguson doesn’t see Miovski and Dessers working together in the context of the Barron conflict, even though he would “really like” Miovski at Ibrox.

Speaking only to Ibrox News, he remarked, “It’s funny, I was thinking about that.” It’s challenging because, in my opinion, the Rangers offered more than was reasonable. Aberdeen was definitely not at all pleased with it.“The relationship between Rangers and Aberdeen is not the greatest at times for numerous reasons.

“He’s just a player, Miovski, who I really like. If I’d him in a Rangers jersey I can see him banging in at least 20-30 goals easily each season.

“Dessers is being compared, and in my opinion, he is a far superior player—a more clinical finisher, God Almighty. However, the fact that the relationship hasn’t been fantastic for a while may have some bearing on it. “I believe a deal would have been completed by now if one was to be made.”

Barron is a player who has already signed, so if a deal cannot be done for him, there is little likelihood that one will be reached for Miovski, and the manager will have to go elsewhere. The obvious choice is Lawrence Shankland, and it appears that a move for the Scotland international may once again be considered [Daily Record, 22 July].
