Rangers lead ‘three-horse’ race for versatile £2.5m winger
In response to reports that Rangers are prepared to spend £2.5 million for Vitesse Arnhem winger Million Manhoef, Philippe Clement has commented.
The Ibrox club has reportedly been following the highly regarded Dutch youth international for the past 12 months, according to a report in the Scottish Sun. The player, who turns 22 next month, is reportedly admired by new head of football recruitment Nils Koppen.
With 18 months left on his current contract, Manhoef, who plays primarily on the right side but can also be effective on the opposite wing or as a full-back, can still play. With Preston North End and Leicester City, two of the top teams in the English Premier League, vying for his signing, it is thought that Vitesse would be ‘ready to listen’ to offers in January.
Regarding potential transfer movement, Clement declined to comment on conjecture. “I never speak about players we are interested in or not because then I can speak about rumors every day; there are so many false rumors in Glasgow,” he said to BBC Sportsound.
We’ll talk about players who are in the building, and Fabio Silva is one of them. This year, he’ll work hard to make it a fantastic season, just like the others. What number do we hope to bring in? We discussed these issues with the board, and everyone is in agreement. In January, we’ll find out what can be accomplished.
“Everyone is exerting a lot of effort and straining to maximize our desires. Players should strive to remain on the squad and at the club, in my opinion.
