“The player has already said yes” – Fabrizio Romano says another Rangers signing now “close”

Rangers are “close” to signing Fluminense left-back Jefte for Philippe Clement’s squad at Ibrox during the winter transfer window.

Rangers target Jefte “has already said yes” to a move to Ibrox, according to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano,

who exclusively tells GIVEMESPORT that a deal with the Gers is “close.”

Phillipe Clement’s side has had a quiet 2024 winter transfer season,

but they could increase their activity in the last days of the market as they attempt to contend for the Scottish Premiership title and advance to the Europa League’s knockout stages.

Rangers are still trailing in the race for the top division crown,

but recent results have propelled them back to the top of the table.

Jefte, who is presently on loan at APOEL Nicosia from Brazilian giants Fluminense,

wants to move to Ibrox and is expected to leave Cyprus soon.

Rangers fans haven’t got much to celebrate in the 2024 winter transfer window,

which closes on February 1st. The Gers began their business for the year by announcing the loan signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers

forward Fabio Silva until the end of the 2023/24 season. The Portugal U21 international’s arrival might replace Sam Lammers,

who has temporarily moved to FC Utrecht.

Rangers have also signed FC Nordsjaelland midfielder Mohamed Diomande on a loan agreement with a buyout clause in the summer.The Gers will spend €5 million (£4.3 million) for the Ivory Coast U23 international,

who has appeared in over 100 matches for the Danish team, including European competition.

Rangers could acquire at least one more new player in the coming days after bringing in two this winter.

According to rumors, a deal to recruit left-back Jefte is close after the Fluminense loanee was left out of APOEL’s squad on January 26th.

According to reports from the Mediterranean, a transfer for the 20-year-old left-back might cost as little as £400,000.

Rangers would be ecstatic, as the defender’s presence might potentially allow them to release either Borna Barisic or Ridvan Yilmaz.

The former could soon leave Ibrox, as the 31-year-old is out of contract this summer.Meanwhile,

Yilmaz has struggled to find opportunities since joining Rangers in the summer of 2022 and may seek a fresh start elsewhere.

As a result, Jefte’s signing might set off a domino effect elsewhere in the market at Ibrox.
