The most recent Rangers transfer news and rumors for January 4, includes updates on Vaclav Cerny, Evan Ferguson, Nathan Patterson, and Leon Belcar.
Vaclav Cerny is a wanted individual in La Liga.
Cerny has been a fantastic loan acquisition from Wolfsburg, with the Czech international already scoring 10 goals and assisting six times in 29 games.
His most recent standout performance was against Celtic in the Gers’ fantastic 3-0 victory, when he clipped the upright twice.
But with great form comes interest, and Villarreal are apparently looking at the 27-year-old winger with the intention of signing him this month or in the summer.
Philippe Clement has intimated that he wants to keep Cerny, although the playmaker himself has been evasive about his own future.
Rangers’ pursuit of Evan Ferguson is no longer feasible due to Premier League interest.
Evan Ferguson was mentioned as a potential Rangers target in November when it was revealed that Brighton would be ready to let him go on loan.
Manager Fabian Hurzeler stopped short of confirming the news, saying he liked what he saw from the Irishman.
The 20-year-old striker may now be out of Ibrox’s reach, with Arsenal reportedly bidding against West Ham for his services.
Is it feasible that an Ibrox Academy graduate may return?
James Tavernier is reaching an age when the Gers can no longer rely on him every weekend, paving the way for a new right-back to emerge.
Dujon Sterling has played there, and the versatile Robbie Fraser left on loan for Livingston yesterday.
That leaves a slot to compete for, and it has been reported that Nathan Patterson may be allowed to depart Everton provided they can find a replacement in January.
Can the former Light Blues academy graduate make a remarkable comeback?
Rangers are tracking Croatian players Leon Belcar and Marko Soldo, as previously reported by RN.
However, we can now disclose that, despite his interest, Nils Koppen has not yet made an official approach to either player or their respective clubs.
That doesn’t mean it won’t happen, though, and Jutarnji claims a £600,000 fee may accomplish it.
The same publication also stated that a move to Glasgow would be a “once in a lifetime” experience for Belcar, who now plays for Varazdin.
