Rangers set to sign £3.8m talent as he leaves international duty
Rangers are reportedly on the verge of another signing with Lens winger Oscar Cortes now believed to be heading for Ibrox.
Mohamed Diomande, a £4.3 million transfer from Nordsjaelland,
became Rangers’ second January acquisition on Friday.
Rangers now appear poised to pick up speed in the upcoming days,
having already signed Fabio Silva earlier in the month.
Brazilian left defender Jefte has emerged as a top contender,
and Hearts striker Lawrence Shankland is still being linked.
Oscar Cortes,
a winger for Lens, is reportedly close to agreeing a contract with Rangers,
thus he could be a surprise target presently.
On social media,
Colombian reporter Julian Capera currently asserts that Rangers and Lens have reached a deal for Cortes’ signing.
Cortes is currently traveling to Glasgow to complete the move,
which is expected to see him joining Rangers on loan for the remainder of the season with the option to buy.
After making 28 first-team appearances for Millonarios in his home Colombia,
Cortes emerged with seven goals and five assists.
Cortes, who is from Colombia,
had 28 appearances in the first team for Millonarios before finishing with seven goals and five assists.
Cortes has only made four appearances for the Lens first team,
but throughout that time he has one assist and one goal.
Cortes is a right flanker by preference, but he has also played left,
as a number 10, in the middle of the midfield,
and even up front.
If a deal works out, this is another intriguing addition for Rangers,
and there’s been a strong hint that things are moving forward.
Cortes has been pulled from his international duties with the Colombian Under-23 team in order to return to France,
the Colombian FA said today.
Cortes was scheduled to play Venezuela in Monday’s CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament,
but the idea of finalizing a transfer has since ruled him out.
Cortes is rumored to be heading to Rangers,
and this appears to be another acquisition with a lot of future potential.
