Rangers can green light Igamane exit as replacement found in transfer update

Rangers can let Hamza Igamane leave in January after stepping up interest in Mamelodi Sundowns forward Iqraam Rayners.

The Moroccan has been linked with a move away from Ibrox with Premier League sides including Newcastle United, Everton and West Ham monitoring the striker [Mountakhab].

It has been claimed that the Light Blues could be forced to accept an offer for the 22-year-old due to their current financial position.

If an "attractive" offer is to come in during the Winter transfer window, the Gers could now accept after identifying a potential replacement.

Rangers can green light Hamza Igamane exit after Iqraam Rayners link

The striker signed from FAR Rabat in the summer has proved to be a key player under Philippe Clement in recent weeks, scoring five in his last six games.

As a result, it is no surprise that there is interest from England and across Europe in the young forward's signature.

Given that Igamane only signed for £1.7million [Daily Record], the Gers could have the perfect chance to turn a profit after just half a season.

If the 22-year-old were to leave, the Govan club could turn their attention to bringing Rayners in from South African side Mamelodi Sundowns [SNL24].

The 29-year-old is said to be "turning heads with his performances for club and country" this campaign which could see the Gers step in.

The Bafana Bafana international has scored 12 goals in 15 appearances across all competitions in a positive return for the versatile forward.

If the striker comes in from the South African Premier Soccer League, the sale of Igamane could be given the go-ahead and a profit could be made for Nils Koppen and Co.
