What Jens Hjerto-Dahl thinks about Rangers move as Ibrox chiefs prepare second transfer attempt

Jens Hjerto-Dahl is one of Rangers' priorities this summer after seeing a first bid for the midfielder rejected by Tromso.

The 49ers are planning a midfield revamp for Derek McInnes, with multiple changes wanted at Ibrox this summer.

Dan Neil has already arrived on a free transfer, while the Bears look to seal the signing of Vanja Dragojevic from Partizan Belgrade.

A transfer move for Hjerto-Dahl is also wanted at Ibrox, after the club saw an initial £5.3million bid rejected earlier this week.

McInnes may stick to his preferred 4-4-2 formation for the Gers, which will make it an interesting season if the Light Blues manage to get all their targets.

Despite having a big bid rejected for Hjerto-Dahl, Rangers aren't giving up in their chase for the youngster.

Jens Hjerto-Dahl's thoughts on Rangers move come clear

Tromso do not want to sell Hjerto-Dahl to Rangers or anyone else, despite significant interest across Europe.

The 20-year-old has played 12 times for the Norwegian outfit this year and has seven goal involvements to his name.

The central midfielder can do a bit of everything, chipping in defensive work, as well as posing a threat to the opposition's goal.

He's the type of midfielder Rangers want, and according to Rune Robertsen, a Norwegian journalist who works for ITromso, the player "admits" he favours a move to Ibrox over Besiktas.

Rangers' bosses are now said to be considering a new bid for Hjerto-Dahl after their £5.3m offer was rejected recently.

Andrew Cavenagh and Co. have already shown their willingness to back McInnes, but they could be about to spend over £10m to land both Hjerto-Dahl and Dragojevic.

What Rangers' midfield plans might suggest; it includes two Ibrox stars

Given Rangers' chase for Hjerto-Dahl, Dragojevic and even Lewis Ferguson, it looks like another midfielder or two are set to leave the club.

Connor Barron has interestingly been linked with a move to Bologna, Ferguson's parent club, as has Nicolas Raskin.

Rangers' Belgian international has multiple admirers, including Premier League side Hull City, with whom the Bears may now have a good relationship.

It could be that both Raskin and Barron part ways for a new generation of midfielders at Ibrox, with Tochi Chukwuani also on the books.
