Rangers could suffer from World Cup exploits as Euro club want Nicolas Raskin

Rangers midfielder Nicolas Raskin is already attracting attention in the transfer market.

The Gers would have expected interest if he had a good tournament at the World Cup.

He was impressive when he came on in Belgium's 1-1 draw with Egypt in their opener at the tournament on Monday.

The Light Blues may well face a battle to keep hold of the 25-year-old as interest is already emerging in his services.

One European club is understood to have made the Ibrox star a target already.

If the Bears can earn a huge profit on the £1.5million that they paid Standard Liege, they may well consider a sale.

Who wants to sign Rangers star Nicolas Raskin?

Italian side Atalanta are an option to sign the Belgium ace, according to a new report.

Italian journalist Di Marzio claimed on Tuesday that the Bergamo side have set their sights on the Gers star.

The Serie A side have featured regularly in the Champions League and Europa League since the 2017-18 season, so could be an attractive destination.

Why Raskin situation is a win-win for Rangers

Rangers can be relaxed about the Raskin situation as he is under contract until 2028.

They can push for an offer that they can't refuse, or choose to keep him around if they do not receive an amount they deem as acceptable.

His contributions for the Gers have been invaluable and he was immense in his World Cup debut.

Danny Murphy described a cross that the Ibrox star sent in for Romelu Lukaku as "wonderful", live on commentary.

Chris Sutton, famous for his Celtic persuation, labelled Raskin as "the outstanding player on the pitch" in 2025 after the Gers beat the Hoops 3-0.

The majority of the fanbase in Govan would use that word to describe Raskin's impact on the side when he is in top form.

It would not be a bad thing by any means if he was to stick around in G51 for the new season, as he is a top-quality player on his day.

If he continues in his current form at the tournament, then the Gers may have to deal with several other teams as well as the Italians in the near future.

The 49ers Enterprises and Andrew Cavenagh will not be too upset if they get an offer, as he is one of the most sellable assets at their disposal.
