Three-year contract waits as Rangers chiefs hope to seal yet another new transfer – report

Rangers officials are hopeful that Fluminese will shorten Jefte’s loan at APOEL so he can complete his move to Ibrox before the January transfer deadline, according to the Daily Record.

The newspaper’s website reports that a three-year deal is awaiting his arrival in Glasgow, with the clock ticking before February 1.

The Brazilian would follow Fabio Silva and Mohamed Diomande to Govan, with Philippe Clement hoping for more new additions to his side.

Long game.

Patience is always crucial during the transfer window, especially in January.

Most transactions do not occur until the final few days, after dominoes have fallen into position at numerous clubs, allowing for additional action.

Jefte is a new name, but his experience with APOEL in European football could help him prepare for a move to Ibrox.

If everything can be worked out swiftly after being left out of the most recent matchday squad in Cyprus, this transfer could be completed before the weekend.

That would provide John Bennett and his colleagues with a few more days to maybe get another new name across the line, with Lawrence Shankland being the apparent choice.

Jefte is first, though, and that appears to be growing closer by the hour, with fans no certainly watching flight trackers from Cyprus to Scotland very soon.
