Just one day after Giovanni van Bronckhorst went public with Rangers’ failed attempt to lure a member of Borussia Dortmund’s Champions League final XI to Ibrox. Ian Maatsen, so impressive during Wednesday’s colossal shutting out of Paris Saint-Germain, was ‘on my list’, Van Bronckhorst told RTL. “In the end, it didn’t work out.” You can say the same of Xavi Simons, an Eredivisie Golden Boot winner also wanted by Van Bronckhorst at Rangers before heading to Germany and tearing it up with RB Leipzig. Joey Veerman, after helping fire PSV Eindhoven to their first Eredivisie title in six years on S...

Only a few weeks ago did it look like out-of-contract Rangers midfielder John Lundstram was going nowhere. The Scouse star, 30, has not been without his critics at Ibrox with the club letting slip the Scottish Premiership title on the ex-Sheffield United star’s watch. Whether John Lundstram and his teammates regain it in the final three games of the season could be defining for the Rangers star’s Ibrox legacy. As Rangers manager Philippe Clement shelves contract talks until the end of the season – Rangers currently have six players out of contract in the first-team – the Belgian’s latest comme...

Rangers have always had a touch of the Dutch about them. The club’s long-held association with the Oranje was only intensified by the influx of high-profile Netherlands stars who joined during the reign of Dick Advocaat. To this day, several of that number continue to be heralded at Rangers and are rarely slow to nail their colours to the Ibrox mast. Arthur Numan, Fernando Ricksen, Ronald de Boer and Michael Mols are some of the Dutch stars who hold a close affinity to Rangers, with former manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst also amongst them. So you’ll forgive Rangers fans for feeling that when ...

Regardless of whether Rangers end the season with three trophies, two, or just a single Scottish League Cup crown, you’d struggle to find anyone at Ibrox harbouring regrets over the appointment of Philippe Clement. That Rangers are still in contention for a domestic treble – just three points adrift of Celtic in the table and preparing for an Old Firm Cup final clash at the end of this month – is testament alone to the belief and the consistency Philippe Clement has instilled since replacing the water-treading Mick Beale, barring an untimely dip in form over the Easter period. And it’s not as ...

Saido Berahino is a name that many Rangers fans believe could’ve done a job at Ibrox. The former England U21 striker was at one stage tipped for the very top of the game but a series of controversies in the English top flight cost him a career at the top level. There was a moment when Saido Berahino looked set to take the British game by storm but unfortunately, things transpired against the Burundi-born hitman. Now, inviting something of a social media grilling on controversial platform X, Berahino has made a Rangers transfer claim that appears to back up Ibrox links from the Steven Gerrard e...

Gary McAllister knows all about the pressure of expectation at Rangers. The ex-Scotland international served as Steven Gerrard’s Ibrox assistant as Rangers looked to rebuild and win that first title since the club’s financial implosion in 2012. And also halt Celtic’s march towards 10IAR. It’s a mission which Gary McAllister and the Rangers team of 2020/21 achieved but the ex-Liverpool and Leeds United midfielder’s time in Glasgow was not without disappointment. Now, speaking to Sky Sports ahead of Saturday’s crunch Scottish Premiership Old Firm derby, Gary McAllister has been talking about the...

Rangers will be on the lookout for new forwards in the summer and the recent team selections from Philippe Clement show exactly what is needed. Fabio Silva and Dujon Sterling have been drafted in as makeshift wingers but are square pegs in round holes and far away from what the manager needs. Luca Langoni and Raphael Borges Rodrigues have been linked, however, there could be another player available who knows what the pressure is like at Rangers.

Two years ago Rangers hero Alfredo Morelos was ragdolling Dortmund stalwart Mats Hummels on route to the Europa League Final. In one of the most impressive victories in Rangers history, the Ibrox side dumped Dortmund 4-2 in Germany before a stunning 2-2 draw in Glasgow ensured progression. It was the result which gave Rangers and Giovanni van Bronckhorst the belief that they could go all the way in the Europa League, and whilst we fell short against Frankfurt in Seville, it remains one of the most memorable periods in the club’s history. But little over 48 months on from when Rangers were dump...

Rangers will need to plug gaps and upgrade in several positions this summer and Philippe Clement has already been linked with potential new signings. One area that will need to be looked at is in defence, with question marks at left-back and in the middle. When Rangers signed Dujon Sterling in 2023, it looked like he had been brought to fill a few holes, but could Philippe Clement be about to repeat the move as We Are West Ham presenter James Jones explains.

If a couple of poor recent performances looked set to make a potential parting of the ways that little bit easier to accept, Saturday’s 4-1 hammering of Kilmarnock provided a reminder of what Rangers may find themselves missing. Just like last summer, when Alfredo Morelos, Ryan Kent, Scott Arfield, Glen Kamara and Filip Helander departed, 2024 looks set to see yet more farewells from that iconic title-winning side under Steven Gerrard. Ryan Jack and Borna Barisic are out of contract. So too is John Lundstram. And while the midfielder had fallen short of his usually ‘exceptional’ standards duri...
