Rangers to make small fortune after what’s happened away from Ibrox

Rangers may make a small fortune selling Nico Raskin in the upcoming transfer windows, considering what’s happened with his Belgian teammates.

The Gers signed the Belgian midfielder for £1.32million from Standard Liege in 2023, and he needed some time to settle in.

Raskin has now become an influential player at the Light Blues, with Aston Villa and Leeds United linked with the 24-year-old’s signature [TEAMtalk].

Barry Ferguson has taken the midfielder to the next level at Ibrox, and the Bears could soon reap rewards for his fine form.

Raskin transfer may bring small fortune to Rangers

Raskin has the potential to make the Glaswegian outfit a small fortune, according to the Daily Mail.

The news outlet reports (27 March) that the 24-year-old’s value could potentially be significant after making his full debut for Belgium against Ukraine in the Nations League on 23 March, receiving a standing ovation from the crowd.

It has been claimed that with clamour around Raskin’s inclusion in the Red Devils’ setup over Amadou Onana and Youri Tielemans, who have been subject to hefty transfer sums in the past, there’s a possibility the Gers could earn a significant sum from his sale.

It will be interesting to see how much the Light Blues will be able to demand for the Belgian midfielder in the coming future.

Barry Ferguson will want Raskin continuity at Ibrox

Barry Ferguson will arguably be in line at Ibrox to become the next permanent manager after the heroics against Fenerbahce and Celtic.

The Gers icon took interim charge of the Bears after Philippe Clement was sacked and has managed to turn the mood around.

Fans were disgruntled under the Belgian manager’s tenure, holding protests for his dismissal, which led to an air of negativity around the Glaswegian outfit.

Rangers are now in the Europa League quarter-finals, where they face Athletic Club, and getting a win over the Spanish side will undoubtedly be challenging.

If Ferguson remains at the Light Blues beyond this season, he will evidently want them to keep Raskin.

The Belgium international has gone from strength to strength in recent months and has the potential to become the Bears’ next captain.

As things stand, it would seemingly make sense for the Glaswegian outfit to keep the 24-year-old midfielder unless they receive an offer they can’t refuse.
