Rangers keen on 6ft striker, respected journo reveals Ibrox move chances

Glasgow Rangers appear to be actively looking to sign another striker,

The Belgian has been capped at youth level for his country and averages a goal per two games for his club this season,

providing the depth that the Gers manager might need in his team.

The story includes a name that has emerged and been cleared instantly,

with noted transfer journalist Sacha Tovolieri outlining Rangers’ interest in Hugo Cuypers on X.

Rangers are big supporters of Hugo Cuypers.

Tovolieri, who disrupted Rangers’ move for Nicolas Raskin,

is well known among most fans who follow trade whispers on social media.

This time, the news can be interpreted in one of two ways.

Clement and Nils Koppen are reportedly big fans of the 6ft tall attacker,

but they are unlikely to make a move right now.

Still under contract with Gent until 2026,

the most likely rationale is that the amount sought is too high for us to pay while Cyriel Dessers and Danilo are still available.

Maybe if Sam Lammers had departed on a permanent basis, but he will be back in the summer.

Cuypers has a similar profile to Dessers in that he is not the fastest but is a textbook, all-around number nine.

He may be just as streaky when it comes to hitting the net.

Lawrence Shankland is another player with whom he shares similarities.

Coincidence? Maybe.

Or perhaps not.

What this rumor does suggest, however, is that Oscar Cortes will not be the final forward brought in by Clement during this transfer window.

Rangers have certainly been impressed with Hugo Cuypers,

but there are other aspects to consider when determining who to sign.

As with the other players who have arrived or are rumored to be on their way,

Whose name will be next?
