“Definitely” – Insider drops exciting striker claim for Rangers fans on X

Thanks to insider The 4th Official, Rangers supporters have learned some fascinating

information about the team’ssearch for a new striker ahead of the January transfer deadline.

The Gers could still have a busy few days in terms of transfers, as many players are rumored to be finalizing deals to

move to Ibrox and other current stars are encouraged to move on. It is arguable that Rangers are primarily seeking

reinforcements at left-back, particularly in the event that Borna Barisic and Ridvan Yilmaz decide to depart Ibrox soon.

expected to be confirmed soon.

Apart from the left-back dilemma, Rangers are also linked to attacking players. Hearts striker Lawrence Shankland has

been a main target for a time now as he continues to shine for his current team. Oscar Cortes is another player who is

getting closer to joining on loan from Lens and may be confirmed as a Gers player in the next few days.

The search for a Rangers striker goes on.

In response to a supporter who inquired about Rangers’ intentions to recruit a striker this month, insider The 4th

Official stated that the team is in fact in the process of bringing in a new forward before the January transfer window

closes. “They are definitely trying their best, I know that.”

In the end, the Scottish Premiership title match could come down to who signs a new striker in January, with Celtic

perhaps having more offensive firepower than Rangers at the moment. That is demonstrated by the fact that, despite

having played one more game than their opponents, they have scored 54 goals in the league this season as opposed to 45.

The most intriguing alternative available to the Gers is Shankland, a Scot who could immediately take over as Philippe

Clement’s primary striker and leave an immediate impression having already scored 14 goals in the competition this

year. Derek McInnes, the manager of Aberdeen, is obviously a fan; he recently said:

“I recently spoke with him and his agent, and I have no doubt that in January, he will have a lot of options. He’s not only

a finishing anymore; he seems to be a more all-around player now. Like with any of your smaller children who don’t

quite make the breakthrough, it’s encouraging to watch him succeeding. He serves as a fantastic model for what is

possible.”

In order to give themselves the best opportunity of winning the whole season, Rangers will need to find a target between

now and deadline day if they are unable to get Shankland, providing Hearts maintain their stance.
