The Rangers hit gold on their “cult hero”

Glasgow Renjers And the transfer market has not been a lot of friends in the previous few years.

Since the promotion secured back to Premiere On the eve of the 20161/7 campaign, Ibrox Side made an abundance of nasty signatures. Where to start?

Pedro Caixinha spent money on Like Carlos Pen and Eduard Herrera, who were both able to fulfill their expectations, while even Steven Gerrard made several howling, especially during his early transmission windows.

Former Liverpool captain signed Flops such as Umar Sadiq and Eros Grezda in 2018, a few years before spending money on Juninho Bacuna and Cedric Itten.

Lammers Sam, Ben Davies and Jose Cifuentes are just some of the players who have signed the managers since Gerrard left, and all three are trying to perform in Scotland.

Although these types of signatures usually surpass the positives, when the club signs a player who has great potential, it usually ends quite well.

Joe Aribo was Sold for around £ 10m In the summer of 2020 cost gors only £ 300,000 three years before. From the current team, Hamza Igamane looks safe to make the Light Blues a significant profit because of their performances this season.

One of the best signatures of the club – from a financial standpoint anyway – was Calvin Bassey. Defender is now playing in the Premier League for Fulham, but Rangers gave him his big break.

Why was Calvin Bassey sold for club fee

In the summer of 2020. Gerrard added several players to his team in an effort to cause Celtics to Trophy Premiership during 2020/21.

Ianis Hagi has signed permanently, while Cedric Itten, Kemar Roofe and Leon Balogun arrived Ibrox. However, the deal brought Bassey to Scotland, which, however, looked the most promising.

Due to cross -border rules, left back it costs only £ 200 In compensation compensation from Leicester City, and he was one for the future.

Indeed, Gerrard used his talents to Only 15 occasions During the 2020/21 season, but things were supposed to be better.

With a crisis of defense injury that hit the team strongly during the early stages of the next campaign, Bassey was deployed as a central back with Connor Goldson and soon progressed to a solid partnership.

Once he got his chance in the initial XI, Bassy never left, he won 50 appearances at all competitions while Gers reached the Europa League final, while he won the Scottish Cup for the first time in 13 years.

These performances would ultimately lead the Nigerian international to leave the club, and that would show a lot of European parties that summer.

Eventually Ajax provided his services on a permanent contract for Fee of just under £ 23 millionwhich was the transfer of the club.

It is fair to say that he was one of the best signing of modern time, but is there a player in the current team that has recently surpassed him?

Best signature Rangers of Bassey

Losing Scott Wright last summer meant that Philippe Clement had one right wing in the team-Ross McCausland-which meant that this area needed a quick upgrade.

There were several players associated with Ibrox, but because of the available limited funds, the Belgian manager had to rely on the signature of the loan, which is why Vaclav Cerny joined Light Blues on a temporary agreement until the end of the current season.

Have scored five goals For Side Wolfsburg Bundesliga during the 2023/24 campaign, Cerny looked like an exciting wide option for Rangers. He also scored a hit against the Celtics for Ajax, which would surely help him persuade supporters during his early weeks.

Those first few weeks were mixed. The Czech star delivered several decent screens, but was poor against Lyon in a 4-1 Europe defeat. He missed a great opportunity During that game and lost possession of 11 times.

Two goals against St. Johnstone, just days later, proved that his awful European account was only one -time and since then he started.

All in all, the loan is networked an impressive number of 17 goals Through 44 matches, insertion and with seven assists. The 27-year-old saved his best football-minus Lyon Clash-for Europa League, scoring six goals in a secondary competition in Europe.

Furthermore, the wing player has created two big chancesOn average, 1.3 key passages per game and succeeds with 2.3 dribbling each match, showing its skills against superior opposition.

Rangers won the recent Old company Derby against Celtic 3-2 Kind of Late Igamane winner, who caught the effort when it seemed like the match would end up as a draw.

The real hero of that game was, however, Cerny, who soaked Celtic supporters with a bottle of water while celebrating the goal.

Journalist Matthew Lindsay praised Wing, describing him as a “cult hero” that follows the “moment of madness”

According to Transfermarkt, Cerny is now appreciated at 9 million euros (£ 7.5 million) and, given his representations for Ger, will recently be a man who will look for this summer.

Whoever becomes a new constant Rangers manager will have to decide whether the money spending on CERNY is worth it, especially since there are other areas of a team that require some investment.

Cerny retreated to Ibrox’s believers with his goals and craziness during the latest victory of Derby. If he joined the club this summer, can he be one of their best signatures in recent memory?

For the next few months it will really be interesting.
