Dor Turgeman ‘to pass medical’ as Rangers eye £4m swoop
Rangers are reportedly keen on securing the services of Maccabi Tel Aviv striker Dor Turgeman this summer.
Dr Rajpal Brar, an injury expert, has assessed his fitness record and delivered a verdict on his thigh setback last season.
Despite that, he managed to play 32 league games, scoring 16 goals.

Despite his minor thigh injury, the Israel international should clear his medical this summer, according to Dr Brar.

The Maccabi Tel Aviv star is keen on moving to Ibrox and Russell Martin also fancies working with him in Glasgow.
| Team | Matches Played | Goals | Assists |
|---|---|---|---|
| M. Tel Aviv | 109 | 32 | 9 |
| B TLV Bat Yam | 31 | 4 | 5 |
Speaking about this situation, Dr Brar, a doctor in physical therapy and a sports scientist, exclusively told Ibrox News: “His game time last season, despite a minor thigh injury, was impressive.
“He featured in 32 league games and played the full 90 minutes on several occasions.
“I do not see him encountering any issues with his medical.”
Rangers may have found their Cyriel Dessers replacement
Selling Cyriel Dessers for around £5million and investing in Turgeman is astute business for the Ibrox outfit.
Dessers, despite scoring 51 goals in two seasons, divides fans with his inconsistent finishing and is nearing 31, with his contract in its final two years, making now the optimal time to cash in.
Turgeman, a 21-year-old Israel international, offers immense upside, having netted 20 goals for Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2024/25.
His pace, versatility, and clinical edge suit Russell Martin’s high-energy system, and his desire to join Rangers signals commitment.
With Hamza Igamane’s potential £15million move to Lille, the funds from Dessers’ sale, combined with the new owners’ £20million investment, allow Gers to secure Turgeman and other targets.
