Youssef Chermiti is once again the centre of attention at Rangers.

Despite his slow start last season, the striker soon turned his fortunes around in Govan, growing to become one of the best number nines in Scotland.

Everyone knew of his potential, and though inconsistency has remained a talking point, his high ceiling attracts others.

Chermiti is now set for a new challenge at Ibrox with the arrival of Derek McInnes, who could get even more out of the 22-year-old.

The Portuguese forward is gearing up for what could be a special season for the Light Blues, but his future may remain uncertain until the window is shut.

Multiple clubs are still monitoring Chermiti, though Rangers' stance remains firm.

According to Africa Foot, Porto remain interested in Chermiti after earlier interest was mooted this year.

The same can be said for Galatasaray and PSV, who have both been credited with appreciation for the former Everton man, as they remain attentive to his situation

Ibrox News previously reported that Besiktas were keen on a loan move for Chermiti, one that the 49ers would most likely laugh off.

However, it's said that the Turkish giants are still interested in the player, as all four are continuing to evaluate "financial terms".

Chermiti's performances last campaign have been described as "remarkable", with his success for the Gers key to why his market value has sharply increased.

It is reported that the Bears would be unwilling to part ways with him easily, though every players has their price.

The offer that would make the 49ers cave in for Chermiti exit

Some of the four interested clubs have been mooted to be preparing offers for less than £15million.

Considering Chermiti's age, position, recent performances, and fee that saw him join Rangers, the Gers would demand much more.

That appears to be the case, with Ibrox chiefs setting his price tag firmly at £25m.

The same figure has been mooted before as one that would make them cash in, though it's unlikely that any of PSV, Besiktas, Galatasaray or Porto would spend that money on him just yet.

Either way, Chermiti hasn't indicated he wants to leave Ibrox yet, as he could be about to increase his price even further next season.
