Benjamin Tahirovic could be on his way to Scotland, with Rangers having him on their transfer shortlist.

The Gers are looking to complete a successful overhaul this summer after falling short in the Scottish Premiership title race.

49ers Enterprises have backed Danny Rohl to be the man to bring glory back to Ibrox, and a transfer mandate is the only way to confirm their trust.

So far, signs are pointing to a strong transfer window for the Govan-based club, who have already been laying the foundation for next season.

A Rangers move for Tahirovic has now been mooted out of his home country of Bosnia, as more arrivals could be lined up.

What has been said about Benjamin Tahirovic and Rangers?

Rohl and Rangers have been busy in the transfer window already, confirming the arrival of Lawrence Shankland from Hearts.

Meanwhile, strong links with both Josh Windass and Luke Graham have been emerging over the past few weeks.

Now, Rangers are said to be interested in Brondby midfielder Tahirovic according to Bosnian outlet SportSport.

The Bears, however, could find negotiations long, as the Danish side are aware that Tahirovic could increase his value if he stars for Bosnia at the World Cup.

The report shares that the mere fact he has made the squad “raises the price even more”.

It remains to be seen if Tahirovic is on the Gers’ radar as an alternative to Dan Neil, who is another midfielder linked with Rangers, or as an entirely separate link.

Questions over the future of Nicolas Raskin have been rife over the past few months, and if the possibility of an exit emerges there, the Gers will need more midfielders through the doors.

The Belgian may be in the same boat as Tahirovic, with this summer’s tournament having the chance to put him in the shop window.

What type of player is Benjamin Tahirovic?

Tahirovic is a number six who has played for many top sides, such as AS Roma and Ajax, over the years.

While he was born in Sweden, Tahirovic was eligible to play for Bosnia and Herzegovina due to his familial background.

This dual nationality was the subject of a complimentary comment from former Roma manager Jose Mourinho, who described what the Bears could expect.

The Portuguese manager said: “When he is Swedish, he is a relaxed and quiet footballer. When he is Bosnian, he is my warrior with incredible potential.”

Mourinho has had his fair share of talent throughout his extensive managerial career. With Tahirovic still 23 years old, that potential could still be there to tap into.
