Rangers have already added extra firepower this transfer window with the addition of Fabio Silva and Philippe Clement is also said to be keen on bringing Kevin van Veen back to Scotland.

Speaking about his future, the 32-year-old Groningen forward seems to have no problem joining the Gers manager’s squad.

Although Silva made his Ibrox debut this week, and his profile seems to be exactly what the Rangers should be seeking for instead of a veteran, Kevin van Veen, via The Herald, is certain that interest is still there.

Rangers still interested in Kevin van Veen transfer

Despite his age, you would have believed that the summer would have been the ideal moment to sign the massive Dutch striker after he scored 29 goals for Motherwell the previous season.

Van Veen, who stands 6 feet 4 inches tall, is a completely different threat than any of our current forwards. He also stated that Rangers was a possibility for him to choose.”There’s interest even if I turned them down in the summer.

“But there are more clubs that find a striker who scored 29 goals last season interesting. I can contact clubs in the entire Scottish League directly, but they all want to loan me while FC Groningen prefers to sell.

“It is difficult for many Scottish clubs to come close to what FC Groningen paid for me in terms of a transfer fee and that is a problem.”Not many Scottish clubs can afford to pay sizeable transfer fees which makes the chances of them forking out for a player who will soon be 33 and cost his club £500,000 a few months ago even slimmer.

Since Kevin van Veen is not Claudio Cannigia, Philippe Clement should only think about bringing him to the Rangers if Kemar Roofe’s prognosis for the remainder of the season is dire.

A striker isn’t necessary in January because Danilo, Fabio Silva, and Cyriel Dessers can all play through the middle in football.Van Veen’s desire to relocate in order to play frequently is another factor.

He has very little chance of starting ahead of guys who are over £4 million in salary and a gifted young player who is valued at £35 million.He said he had his chance, and I doubt he will have another.
