Liverpool’s player transfer valuation is brought up by Rangers rumours and a potential Ibrox rival’s bid in the UCL

Published

Rangers is interested in a player from Liverpool.

Some say that if Rangers want to get Bobby Clark, they will have to pay Liverpool a lot of money.

Many people at Anfield think the midfielder is a great future player, and it has been said that Rangers want to sign the 19-year-old. He has played for the senior team at Anfield and has been capped by England at the youth level. The blues are still looking to add players to their squad during the transfer window.

When Philippe Clement added Connor Barron to the midfield, he made a big impact. However, they lost a lot of experience when Ryan Jack and John Lundstram left. Someone like Alex Lowry is on the edges of Ibrox, waiting for a chance to play in the middle.

RB Salzburg is also said to be interested in Clark. If they beat FC Twente and Rangers beat Dynamo Kyiv, they would play each other in the Champions League play-off round. According to Ibrox News, the Austrian team has made an offer of £6 million. In response to the bid, Liverpool Echo journalist Paul Gorst gave an indication of how much Rangers might have to pay. “Way short of their value,” he said.

Also, a former star player for Rangers says the Premier League club should look within for talent instead of outside, since Clark is linked to Liverpool. Derek Ferguson thinks that their own academy could be a good place to train players who can be sold for a profit.

Ferguson told Ibrox News, “Since Steven Gerrard was manager, we’ve been linked with a few of these guys at Liverpool.”

“I don’t know much about the boy, but it’s clear that he’s a good player.” But I believe we should look at our own academy sometimes. We have enough skilled people here. The young players are being brought in so that we can hopefully improve them and then sell them.

“I understand their motivations,” Hampden’s Rangers touch uncovered

Hutton discusses the Ibrox club’s brief visitation to the national stadium.

Rangers, Alan Hutton’s former team, are getting ready to move to the national stadium for an undisclosed number of games. He has urged the team to embrace playing at Hampden.

The first matchup is in the Premiership on Saturday against Motherwell, and the second leg of Rangers’ third-round Champions League qualifying match against Dynamo Kyiv takes place on Tuesday at their makeshift home field.

In preparation for its conversion to the Rangers’ home pitch, National Stadium has already begun to display its branding. The club may not be able to return to Ibrox until the autumn due to a postponement of the Copland Stand renovations. As co-commentator for Premier Sports, Hutton acknowledged that it felt weird to talk about Rangers trying to complete the job “at Hampden” after the team’s 1-1 draw with Dynamo Kyiv in Poland earlier this week.

Additionally, he is aware that Rangers would prefer to take the Ukrainians to Ibrox, the location of numerous illustrious European evenings.There’s also the uncertainty of what the hastily relaid Hampden pitch will look like. Hutton anticipates no problems, but Glasgow saw a lot of rain on Thursday night. However, the former Scotland international emphasised that there are no justifications as Rangers prepare to play matches in three separate competitions at their makeshift stadium in the upcoming weeks.

Hutton remarked, “Of course you’d rather be at Ibrox.” In the end, we’ve watched enough games there to have a sense of the potential atmosphere. It is not meant to be. The players won’t likely be thinking about that right now.

He went on, “They are aware that they are travelling to Hampden.” “The other night, when I had to announce that the second leg was now returning to Hampden, I even felt weird doing co-commentary!

They’ve experienced highs and lows there enough times in the past.The pitch is excellent. Tens of thousands of fans will attend, and that is currently where they call home. It will be up to them to handle.

He went on, “They have to make it their home.” “I noticed that the Rangers’ outside stadium branding has increased, and I understand their reasoning. The team needs the supporters, so they’re attempting to make it feel cosy.

They are, in spite of the cliche, the 12th man. They are essential to the team. Simply proceed with the decision as soon as it was made. Don’t use the season’s unfulfilled expectations as an excuse.”

Hutton has a great deal of experience playing in stadiums for both club and country, having won 50 caps for Scotland. He acknowledges that he would have preferred Ibrox, a stadium with its stands closer to the pitch. However, Hampden was unmatched on that day or even that night.

He remarked, “I’ve played there and been there enough to know it can be a great atmosphere.” “I personally enjoy stadiums with extremely close rows to the pitch. It intensifies everything, in my opinion.

“But, as I’ve already stated, the players are aware of their current situation and are unable to use it as justification. They must proceed with it.

“I recognise the criticism that it receives. I had a great time performing there, and there were some really amazing atmospheres. Depending on how the teams were performing, some weren’t quite as good. From the viewpoint of a fan, the view isn’t as nice behind the goal. You can create a lot of noise in that stadium if the crowd turns out, and Philippe Clement and his team will undoubtedly be hoping for that.”

Alan Hutton was endorsing the Scottish Premiership, Premier Sports Cup, and Scottish Cup coverage on Premier Sports. Premier Sports can be streamed on premiersports.com or by adding an add-on subscription to Sky, Virgin TV, or Amazon Prime through your TV provider.

Rangers make a £5m bids for top player

The goal Cyriel Dessers scored in stoppage time to save Rangers from Dynamo Kiev felt like a major turning point in both his Ibrox career and the new campaign.

Cyriel Dessers has occasionally experienced a monsoon of criticism. In the midst of the wave of sceptics, players with a less impenetrable mindset could have perished.

Nonetheless, Dessers more than makes up for any lack of ruthlessness with hard work, perseverance, and a never-give-up attitude.

Dessers refused to give up hope that he would get another chance, even after missing multiple opportunities against Hearts on Saturday and witnessing a header in Poland be brilliantly turned around the post.

When it did, Vaclav Cerny’s exquisite cross saved Rangers from defeat against Dynamo Kiev on minute ninety-four. Guess who was the first to respond and head the ball in at the near post?

The position nine on Philippe Clement’s squad is still up for debate. And as long as Dessers misses the target more often than he finds it, things will stay that way.

Rangers looking to sign strikers while Bristol City gets ready to sell Tommy Conway

Prior to that Premiership opener at Tynecastle, rumours that Rangers was interested in Hearts talisman Lawrence Shankland surfaced once more. With just a year remaining on his deal, Shankland’s Edinburgh team doesn’t seem eager to let go of the division’s Golden Boot winner.

That being said, Bristol City is not the same.

The Championship team is also having to deal with the possibility of losing their best player to a free transfer. However, Bristol City is not quite that patient, while Hearts seem content to hold onto Shankland in the hopes that a U-turn may be on the horizon.

Tommy Conway, a Scotland international linked to Rangers, will be sold in the final three weeks of the window if their asking price is met, as confirmed by Robins coach Liam Manning.

Manning says to “Sound of the City” on BBC Radio Bristol, “I had a lot of chats with Tommy last year on where I thought he was at, his situation, his future.”

“I think the club made him a fantastic offer, which he chose to decline,” I said to him during our off-season conversation. It’s then a decision.

“Tommy and I don’t have a falling out, but everyone who practices with us and is in the first team changing room needs to be fully committed to the club and our goals.”

“We can’t carry that in the end if someone’s mind is elsewhere.”

After learning that Conway would not be prolonging his stay at Ashton Gate, Rangers—who had also been linked back in January—were placed on high alert, according to a June report from The Bristol Post.

The former speedster, who was not included in the first team during the preseason, is no longer in Manning’s plans.

Philippe Clement might require a substitute for Cyriel Dessers.

The former West Ham United youth coach continues, “He’s trained properly but, like I said, he’s someone who doesn’t see his future at the club.” It’s time for him to go on, then.

“I don’t think we should run Tommy down and possibly lose him for nothing because of his potential and value. Tommy and I had a very clear conversation in the middle of the previous season about our intention to move on from you if you chose not to sign. Your value helps us to make squad improvements.

Manning continues, “Nothing imminent.” “There have been some discussions between clubs, but I don’t think it’s appropriate to discuss them until the situation is a little clearer.

“However, there has been some interest.”

The bidding will need to begin over £5 million if Rangers are to put their hat in the ring between now and the beginning of September.

Hull City and Middlesbrough, Bristol City’s Championship rivals, have made an offer of that magnitude.
