Jefte appears prepared to give up on the title challenge and sign with the Rangers this week.

As the APOEL loanee gets ready to forgo one possible title challenge in favor of another,

Rangers are getting closer to signing Fluminense prospect Jefte.

Mohamed Diomande joined Rangers on Friday, becoming their second January acquisition after a substantial £4.3 million

deal from Nordsjaelland.

Diomande joins Fabio Silva at Rangers, and before this week’s transfer deadline, there might be more new arrivals.

Given the uncertainty surrounding Borna Barisic’s and Ridvan Yilmaz’s long-term prospects, adding another left defender appears to be a top priority.

Brazilian left defender Jefte is a surprise target for Rangers, as he now appears likely to sign with the Gers before the transfer window closes.

By no means is Jefte a household name, but he has contributed significantly to this season’s title push.

Jefte appears ready to drop his pursuit of the APOEL title in favor of the Rangers.
The Brazilian, who struggled to make an impression with the Copa Libertadores winners,

is currently on loan at APOEL Nicosia in Cyprus.

With three goals and four assists in 18 league games, Jefte has demonstrated his attacking abilities from left back this season,

making a significant impact.

Now, four points ahead of Rangers’ previous Europa division opponent, Aris Limassol,

are APOEL and Jefte leading the division in Cyprus.

APOEL hasn’t won the league since 2019, but Jefte now appears prepared to relocate to Glasgow

instead of pursuing a championship in Cyprus.

Rangers does, after all, still have a chance to win the Scottish Premiership this year.

With a game remaining and five points behind Celtic, Rangers are still in the hunt,

and any attempt to challenge for the top spot under Philippe Clement will depend on their January acquisitions.

That would be Jefte’s profile, and in a very daring move for his career, the Brazilian is getting closer to switching

from one championship race to another.

Few Brazilians have played for Rangers; Jefte will join Danilo at Ibrox,

following in the footsteps of stars like as Emerson and Emilson Cribari.

Jefte seemingly believes that Rangers is the right move for his career and is willing to give up a potential

title-winning campaign with APOEL to make it happen. Who knows, maybe Jefte will end the season having

played a role in two title wins – one with APOEL and one with Rangers.
