Robin Propper transfer: Rangers make bombshell exit decision
Rangers have decided whether Robin Propper will be sold at Ibrox in the upcoming transfer window.
The centre-back was signed from FC Twente last summer, but his performances this season have been underwhelming.
Barry Ferguson showed faith in Propper after being appointed interim manager, but the 31-year-old’s displays didn’t encourage many fans.
With Leon Balogun leaving Ibrox despite being one of the most reliable defenders at the Glaswegian outfit, the future of the Dutch centre-back has now been decided.
Rangers looking to sell Propper in summer transfer window
Propper will be on the market next summer as the Gers want to sell him, according to the Rangers Review.
The news outlet reports (21 May) that the Light Blues are looking to move on from the 31-year-old next summer after what’s been a difficult season at Ibrox.

With the ex-Twente defender’s introduction to the Scottish Premiership not going smoothly, it isn’t surprising that the Bears want a potential sale in the coming weeks.
The Glaswegian outfit’s incoming sporting director, Kevin Thelwell, will arguably be tasked with a significant overhaul next summer.
Thelwell must take new manager into consideration at Ibrox
Thelwell’s arrival at Ibrox will undoubtedly be a boost for the Gers, considering they’ve been without a sporting director since 2023.
The outgoing Everton chief already spoke with Ferguson before the interim manager’s eventual departure, and he’ll surely have input on who the Light Blues’ next head coach will be.
Andrew Cavenagh and 49ers Enterprises will be expected to invest heavily in the Bears once they complete their takeover, and quality signings will be needed for a successful squad overhaul.
Rangers are evidently making the right choice to sell Propper in the upcoming transfer window after he’s failed to live up to expectations at Ibrox.
There are other players on the Gers’ books, like Nedim Bajrami and Danilo, whose futures should also be considered by the American investors.
Fans will expect the Bears to compete with Celtic next season, but that gap is significant right now as Brendan Rodgers’ team have a chance of completing the domestic treble.
With John Souttar and Dujon Sterling struggling with consistent fitness issues at the Light Blues this season, they’ll arguably need a few additions to the backline after Balogun and Propper’s departure.
