Rangers to announce transfer by Tuesday PM, 48 hours spare for other business – report

Glasgow Rangers are likely to announce the signing of Oscar Cortes by Tuesday, January 30,

as part of a new January transfer update from Ibrox, according to the Daily Record.

The newspaper’s website reported on Monday (29 January)

that the South American’s arrival will be disclosed by Tuesday evening,

giving Rangers time to focus on other late transfer activity before Thursday’s (1 February) deadline.

Philippe Clement’s team are set to use that extra time to focus on

both incomings and outgoings at Ibrox ahead of the second half of the Scottish Premiership season.

There isn’t long to wait.

It may have taken a bit to get started,

but the January transfer window is proving to be a fairly lucrative period for Rangers as

Clement begins to address the major issues that have impacted his squad in the opening months of the season.

Fabio Silva’s arrival has strengthened the frontline,

while Mohamed Diomande will provide a new dimension to the midfield.

Cortes will provide the Gers with another wide option, something the squad currently lacks.

but the 20-year-old will provide Clement with another alternative,

and his skill set should be ideal for the Belgian’s style of play.

Hopefully, his arrival will go ahead without a hitch and be announced on Tuesday as planned,

giving Rangers a couple of days to put the finishing touches on their team before the deadline closes on Thursday.

It does not look that Cortes will be the last player to make the trip in or out of Glasgow this month.
