Cyriel Dessers exit: Patrick Stewart to send Rangers transfer message

The former midfield player thinks Patrick Stewart will probably wait for outgoings before looking to add players in January. Dessers has already been linked to a move away from Ibrox [The Rangers Review, 3 January], and Philippe Clement may be able to bolster his team with his departure. “You’re guessing Patrick Stewart might come out and say there’s going to be a budget,” McGinn stated during an appearance on the Go Radio Football Show on January 7. “You would think they could recoup some money for Dessers and his career looks to be on the way out,” he said, implying that there must be outgoings for incomings when he passes it on upstairs. Clement might benefit much if they were able to conduct business in that manner.

Philippe Clement would benefit from Cyriel Dessers’ transfer.

Dessers has fallen down the hierarchy and lost his spot in the starting lineup for good. Despite being given numerous chances at the beginning of the season, the Nigerian attacker has struggled at the Glaswegian team. With the Moroccan playing at his best, Hamza Igamane has surpassed the 30-year-old as the Bears’ first-choice number nine.Danilo is also available to Rangers; following an injury problem, the Brazilian center-forward has scored important goals off the bench in recent weeks.

Dessers is expendable during the winter window now that Clement appears to have figured out how to maximize the Gers’ attack. The 30-year-old’s exit won’t be controversial, but he has been a frustrating figure among the Ibrox supporters. It would make sense to let go of someone like the Nigerian striker in the upcoming weeks if the Bears are in dire need of money to boost their roster.
