The rangers are in talks to sign a talent of 30k-p / w pl

Glasgow rangers are not in the position in which they want to be. They failed to qualify for the Champions League, falling into the Europa League and have not yet won their first game in Scottish Premiership.

A confrontation with their city rivals on Sunday does not give much hope that the first victory of the league campaign will appear before the first international break, in particular after a 6-0 kick against Club Brugge.

Although some supporters call on the club to act on the head coach Russell Martin has the support of the board of directors and will be in the canoe in Ibrox this weekend.

The Light Blues Board does more than simply supporting the former boss of Southampton with their word, because they make movements on the transfer market to improve the team.

The Rangers would have concluded an agreement with Girona to sign the Macedonia International Bojan Miovski in a permanent agreement which could be worth up to 4.2 million pounds sterling.

The central front should undergo a doctor with the Scottish giants Friday before its official unveiling, and it remains to be seen if he will be able to play a role against Celtic.

What Bojan Miovski will bring to the Rangers

With Hamza Igamane due to the signing of the French team Lille, the Rangers had to add more goals to their team before the end of the summer transfer window on Monday.

The Moroccan international scored 12 goals in Scottish first during the 2024/25 campaign, while playing on the left flank or in the middle as an attacker, and Miovski is the caliber of the player who can replace the goals they should lose through the exit of Igamane.

His form for Aberdeen in the seasons 2022/23 and 2023/24 shows that the new left step knows how to score goals in Scottish football, and that he might not need a lot of time to go to Ibrox, because the attacker is already used to the country and the league.

Miovski, who also has a score experience at Ibrox against the Rangers, looted 32 goals in two seasons in first with the donations, by Sofascore.

As you can see in the table above, its XG on the target was higher than its XG during its two seasons in the division, which shows that it is a clinical striker who can constantly produce high quality shots.

This is why this signature could be perfect for rangers in their hunting to replace the objectives they will lose with the move from Igamane to Lille in the coming days.

Rangers in talks to sign the talents of the Premier League

Miovski may not be the only one to sign at the door before the deadline, however, because the club looks at another experienced talent which could be just as important as the attacker.

According to journalist Santi Aouna, Glasgow Rangers is one of the teams interested in an agreement to sign goalkeeper Illan Meslier of Leeds United this summer.

The report says that the Scottish giants are in talks with the Premier League team on a possible decision for the Frenchman, although it is not clear if the discussions are centered on a loan or a permanent transfer.

Aouna adds, however, that Valence and Lorient are also interested in signing the stopper with the left foot, which means that there is a lot of competition for its signature.

Valencia would have made their number one objective of him, but must first sell stolen Dimitrievski, and Lorient has already made their first offer to Leeds.

Why Meslier could be an important signature for the Rangers

At its nominal value, it would be understandable if it is a link that does not generate much excitement from the supporters. In the end, Meslier is currently the third choice at Elland Road after being abandoned towards the end of last season.

The 25 -year -old goalkeeper conceded 2.73 more than expected goals, based on the XG against him, in the last championship, which shows that he was not good enough as a shooting despite his transport of 21 clean leaves, by Sofascore.

However, there are other aspects of Meslier’s game which could be well suited to what the rangers need between the sticks, in particular if they continue to support Martin as a chief coach, and it could be just as important as Miovski.

Due to the implementation of the defense, the Gers need a goalkeeper who is proactive when he leaves his line and ready to go out to sweep outside the box and go out to recover crosses.

The objective above, without only being the fault of Jack Butland, shows that the number one rangers are not comfortable playing the role which is asked for him, while he was caught between staying and leaving.

Butland is an old -fashioned goalkeeper who sticks to his line and seems to make stops, rather than being incredible with the ball at his feet or in other goalkeeper areas, which can be the reason why Meslier could be an upgrade on him, despite his faults as a shot.

As you can see in the table above, the paria of Leeds could be just as important as Miovski for the Rangers, because it could also arrive as upgrade in a key position for Martin.

The jewel of £ 30,000 per week seems to have the mentality and quality to work much better than Butland as a sweeping goalkeeper for the Gers, while enjoying a much higher backup success rate and claiming a higher percentage of the crosses in its box.

This means that he can prevent rangers from facing as much shots as they are currently by leaving his line to prevent the crosses from reaching attackers and through the balls from creating chances wide or in the middle.

Consequently, Meslier could be a very important signature to make the style more effective from a defensive perspective, just like the case with Miovski from an attacker perspective.
