Rangers transfer news bulletin as Borna Barisic contract ‘move made’ and sensational Ryan Kent Ibrox return floated

Rangers and Philippe Clement are now working hard in La Manga in preparation for their Premiership comeback.

And as the Ibrox manager attempts to assemble his team,

things continue to unfold behind closed doors.

Fabio Silva, who is moving north on loan from Wolves until the summer,

is the first fresh face the Belgian has added this window.

He joined the travelling squad in Spain before to the winter break and is getting

to know his teammates more and more every day.

This transfer window, there has been a lot of discussion about the left-back position.

Josh Doig, a former star for Hibs, is one of the names who has been connected to Rangers.

There have been rumours that Ridvan Yilmaz is leaving,

and Borna Barisic is nearing the end of his current contract with uncertainty surrounding his future.

To retain him in Glasgow and ward off interest from elsewhere in his services,

Football Scotland claims that the Govan outfit is trying to offer the first team regular fresh terms.

Leeds United and Dinamo Zagreb are also linked with the Croat this transfer window.

According to the same report, the club has communicated with the 31-year-old to express their want to maintain

In the meantime, Ryan Kent may have opened the way for a spectacular comeback to Scotland’s or England’s premier league should his stay in Turkey come to an end.

The former Light Blues player moved to Fenerbahce in the summer at the end of his contract,

but he hasn’t been able to settle into a regular role or have much of an impact.

Despite Hull City of the English Championship showing interest in him,

reports from Turkey indicate that the former Liverpool player is only focused on returning to the top division,

either north or south of the border. Moving to Celtic is extremely doubtful,

thus the only feasible option in Scotland is a spectacular return to Ibrox.

In other news, Brighton is thrilled with Abdallah Sima’s advancement in Glasgow.

After the Senegal international scored 15 goals in all competitions this season,

Clement hopes to sign him to a long-term contract. In an interview with Record Sport,

Gordon Greer, the Seagulls’ pathway development manager,

revealed that his parent club is really pleased with the 22-year-old’s performances

and how his temporary move is progressing.

Greer has travelled to Scotland on many occasions to observe the player in action.

Barry Ferguson has also voiced his amazement that Hearts’ resolve regarding

Lawrence Shankland has not been tested by Rangers.

He thinks his old team would benefit greatly from having the Jambos captain.

He declared: “I’m actually a little surprised that a concrete offer hasn’t gone into Tynecastle already,

just to test their resolve, because he looks exactly like a Rangers No. 9.” Give Hearts a choice,

at the absolute least. Because third place in the league may earn

them about £6 million in European qualification, they might feel it’s not worth contemplating.

“Maybe Shankland would rather sign a new contract and serve as the team’s captain going forward?

Or does he envision himself performing with a huge club on the grandest stage of all?

Who knows? However, it’s definitely worthwhile to pose the query and observe how things develop from there

. Because of this, events in the coming weeks will be quite interesting and

might have a big impact on what occurs when the league resumes.”
