Heart and Hand believe that in Jonathan Panzo, Rangers will be getting a defender who's talented but is prone to the occasional errors.

This comes after the BBC shared an update on Twitter that claimed Gers were close to securing a deal for the 22-year-old.

It's understood that if the transfer goes ahead, it will be costing the Ibrox giants a fee worth £2.5million.

Via Twitter, the club's official partner wrote, "Quite intrigued with this one. Looks a talented player with occasional brainfarts. Still developing but at £2.5m bought to play."

Risky?

Panzo does not appear to be the most assured of signings so this is one to take with a grain of salt despite the reports.

Rangers have made the occasional transfer blunders and despite there being a change behind the scenes, it could continue.

If Panzo is arriving primarily to provide depth then it's a move that makes sense as he's probably not ready to a first-team regular.

He will not strengthen the side at centre-back, left-back or even central midfield but will be a decent utility player.

This could be why Michael Beale wants to bring him to the club as he would serve as a useful option in the second halves of games.

It remains to be seen if his arrival sparks the exit of any other first-team players as that will be on the cards as well.
