‘No chance’… Derek Ferguson doesn’t want 31-year-old to stay at Rangers

Now, Derek Ferguson has emphasized that a certain Rangers player shouldn’t be given a new deal extension.

Borna Barisic, a left-back who joined the Ibrox team in 2018 after leaving Osijek for £2.2 million, is the man in question.

Since then, Barisic has been a fantastic asset to Rangers, appearing in 223 games and

helping to create a staggering 52 goals with his accurate crossing.

Although there have always been skeptics about the 31-year-old, many believe that now,

with his contract expiring at the end of the current campaign, would be the ideal time for him and the team to sever ways.

that if he was in a position to decide Barisic’s future, the full-back would have zero chances of staying with Gers.

Initially, Ferguson spoke his mind about Ridvan Yilmaz, claiming that since Besiktas signed him for £5 million in 2022,

he hasn’t at all convinced him.

Ferguson did not hesitate to select the more seasoned Croatian player, Barisic,

over Ridvan for the starting position in this Sunday’s Viaplay Cup Final over Aberdeen.

Ferguson, on the other hand, isn’t the biggest admirer of Barisic and will be glad to

see him go at the end of the 2023–24 season.

“It’s a difficult one for Barisic because he’s out of contract as well,” stated Ferguson. Barisic engages in self-play.

Host Simon Ferry then quizzed the former Gers star on handing Barisic a new deal,

to which he replied: “No chance. That’s a problem area for Rangers (at left-back). They need

to suss that out and bring players in in January. Barisic and Ridvan are not good enough for me.”
