Rangers make late £5m+ Signing

Rangers have “suddenly” upped their asking price for Ridvan Yilmaz to £5.1million after he took his opportunity in the starting XI at Ibrox in recent weeks, according to Spor Arena.

According to the Turkish news site, Galatasaray is still hunting for a left-back,

with Yilmaz at the top of their list, although their biggest offer was a £426,000 loan fee with a £2.56 million buyout option.According to reports,

Yilmaz has been promised playing time by the Istanbul-based club in order to make the Turkey Euros team,

with Gala representatives reportedly attempting to persuade Rangers to let him go.

Yilmaz’s future at Ibrox has been one of the key talking points of this transfer window,

with speculation rife since the beginning of the month, but it now appears he may stay for the long term after all.

His recent efforts in the Rangers first team following Borna Barisic’s injury have seen his game reach new heights,

with a noticeable step up in his displays, which may entice Philippe Clement to keep him on his radar.

A new, higher asking price has supposedly been set,

which appears to be beyond Galatasaray’s reach considering that they were unable to meet the previous demand,

implying Yilmaz’s future may be at Ibrox after all.

Rangers appear to have a busy final few days of the transfer window,

with all eyes on the left-back’s likely move.

It’s a straightforward scenario; if Galatasaray can pay the money, he may depart.

There has been no dispute on personal terms, but with the ball in Rangers’ court, he may stay after all.

While Philippe Clement had wanted to add to his centre-back options this month,

the Belgian has more serious issues to address in the January transfer window,

such as strengthening his midfield and expanding his wide options.
