Clement closing in on signing dream Sima partner at Rangers

Rangers have made an offer to sign a current Benfica defender

resume domestic play.

Even if no game is simple, Philippe Clement may want to experiment with his starting lineup and give

certain bench players a chance against a team that is now fourth in League Two.

Now that the team is still in the running to win three trophies before the end of the season, the manager

has an obligation to add a few more players to strengthen his roster.

The first team squad needs immediate attention in a few areas, chief among them being the left-back

position. In light of this, have the Light Blues recently made progress in acquiring a new player for this

position?

Rangers’ search for a new left-back

While a new forward and central midfielder would be crucial for the Gers this month, due to the

situation surrounding Ridvan Yilmaz and Borna Barisic, bringing another left-sided defender in remains

imperative.

Although Clement has said that they will only sell for the best offer, Yilmaz might be prepared to leave

Ibrox, which might mean that the drama will continue until the last few days of the transfer season.

In addition, Barisic’s contract is set to expire at the conclusion of the season, thus he may be close to

leaving Rangers this month.

The Croatian defender has attracted attention from Leeds United recently, and it looks as though his six-

year spell in Glasgow is coming to an end.

A recent update has arrived regarding their search for a new defender, and it comes from TEAMtalk,

who claim that the Ibrox side are close to securing a deal for Benfica left-back David Jurasek this month.

According to the source, the 23-year-old defender is eager to transfer to Scotland and the Gers have

made a “good offer” for him. A swap may happen as soon as next week.

This seems to be the most significant move Clement has made for a left-sided defender, despite a few

names being mentioned in recent weeks. It will be intriguing to watch the events over the next few days.
