Rangers revamped XI gets punters giddy as stirring signing hint sees hype go beyond Cortes and Jefte

There are already two, but before the transfer window shuts, three more might join Rangers.

After landing Fabio Silva as his striker, Philippe Clement said that he was unable to resist making a

move for Mohamed Diomande, the standout midfielder for Nordsjaelland. Clement’s top priorities

continue to be the wide areas and left back, and he might already have answers in place.

Brazilian Jefte could make a move this week; the full back for Fluminense is awaiting permission to go

from loan club APOEL Nicosia to Glasgow in order to finalize the deal. Borna Barisic’s contract expires

in the summer, and Ridvan Yilmaz is rumored to be interested in Galatasaray, therefore someone will

need to fill this post before the new season begins.

And the incoming transfers might not stop there. On top of Jefte and Cortes, the Light Blues seek to add

another. Though Lawrence Shankland is improbable at this point unless Rangers can break the bank,

hat might very well be a forward. Record Sport examines the possible lineup for the Gers after all of

their January activities are over.

Rangers have a fairly stable back four, but depending on what happens with Yilmaz, Jefte might be

asked to play left back. Diomande can play alongside Lundstram since he can be a playmaker who drops

deep or a 10 in the game.

Jose Cifuentes, who hardly played under Clement, is considering on a loan to Turkey. The singing

Michael Beale predicted would lead the team “to the next level” has found it difficult to even hold down

a regular berth in the starting lineup, and with Diomande’s arrival, it appears that the time is running

out.

Cortes is a right-handed person who is happiest when he cuts to the left. Due to Abdallah Sima’s injury,

that berth is empty; nevertheless, once the Senegalese gets well, a flank swap might be necessary.

Regarding after the summer, it will rely on Brighton’s desire to engage in a long-term partnership.

Cyriel Dessers is at last beginning to take shape up front. For the time being, though, the Nigerian is

doing enough to maintain his position ahead of Silva, who is still getting used to the role. Serious doubts

still surround his long-term suitability to lead a title charge alongside Silva. With the rumour mill in full

swing, the Portuguese can also play off the striker, and another body at the top of the pitch may give the

duo more competition.
