JUST IN: Rangers makes contact to sign a prolific striker as Kemar Roofe’s departure at ” IBROX ” is confirmed.
Exclusive: In response to verified Ibrox rumors, Rangers are attempting to recruit a productive forward.
In the forthcoming summer transfer window, Rangers are reportedly in talks to sign a prolific striker, sources have told Football Insider. In order to prepare for another run at the Scottish Premiership title the following season, it is thought that Philippe Clement is eager to bolster and increase the number of goals in his attack.
Kemar Roofe’s contract at Ibrox expired on Saturday, June 1, and Rangers confirmed his departure.
Fabio Silva, a loanee, will return to Wolves, according to information obtained by Football Insider last month (19 May). Clement’s team is expected to forgo a permanent transfer for the 21-year-old. Michael Beale recruited Danilo and Cyriel Dessers as forwards last summer (2023), and they are still with the team. Sam Lammers will return for preseason after his loan at Utrecht. Rangers prioritize signing a prolific striker once Silva and Roofe go. Clement is eager to add more weapons to his attacking arsenal and has made signing a prolific forward a top priority so that Rangers can contend with Celtic in the upcoming season.
Transfer executives reportedly think it’s critical to finalize a deal before the Ibrox team enters the Champions League qualification round in mid-August.
James Tavernier, a right-back, led the team in scoring in the 2023–24 season with 24 goals in all competitions.
In addition, Dessers (22) and Abdullah Sima (16) made significant contributions for the Glasgow giants, who placed eighth in the Scottish Premiership, eight points behind Celtic.
