Rangers director Nils Koppen has pledged to shop locally as the Ibrox club seeks to recover following years of transfer errors.
The Gers roster is loaded with overpriced underperformers who have failed to meet the expectations of a dissatisfied Rangers fanbase.
Koppen’s 14-point transfer strategy at Ibrox focuses on purchasing low and selling high, but Rangers also want the Scottish Premiership’s greatest indigenous players.
Connor Barron joined the Gers from Aberdeen in the summer, while Lyall Cameron will follow from Dundee at the conclusion of the season.
Rangers have now been informed they can get a £15 million player for a fraction of the price provided they are ready to pay the asking price for Scottish football’s hottest property.
Lennon Miller is a generational talent who has made significant headlines at Motherwell since getting into the Fir Park squad last season.
Miller, who is still only 18 years old, is a staple on the Steelmen’s roster and will be an important part of new manager Michael Wimmer’s strategy in North Lanarkshire.
However, Motherwell may face a difficult task in retaining Lennon Miller, with Rangers, Celtic, and even Premier League heavyweights Liverpool all expressing interest.
Motherwell even turned down a deadline-breaking £2.5 million deal for Lennon Miller from Belgian club USG in the summer.
Michael Stewart believes that price is a fraction of Lennon Miller’s true worth, with the outspoken pundit describing the young Scotland prospect as a £15 million player.
“If you’re looking at it objectively, Lennon Miller, the age, the profile, the type of player, all those sorts of things,” Stewart told ESPN.
“There’s no doubt that he’s comparable to guys down south for £14 million or £15 million. Seriously.”But it’s similar to the home market. There is a price limit for a great property that isn’t on the most desirable street.
“You transfer it to a different street, the same home on a different street, and it suddenly passes through the roof.
“That’s what happens with Scottish football unfortunately, there’s a ceiling that people are not willing to go beyond.”
Rangers might pay a fraction of Miller’s value.
Former Rangers defender Alan Hutton believes Motherwell may want for much to £6 million for Lennon Miller if teams show interest this summer.
Hutton has also pushed Motherwell to include a sell-on provision in the player’s contract to secure a lucrative future move.
Michael Stewart agrees, and while he thinks Lennon Miller is worth £15 million, the former Hearts midfielder believes Motherwell would probably pay less than a third of that.
“I was being serious.” “No, I don’t think he’ll go for that money,” Stewart explains.
“I believe a sell-on clause is assured, and they will receive it.
“I’m not convinced they’ll achieve five or six regrettably, but I believe it will be significantly lower but with a significant sell-off.
“I believe it will eventually be worth approximately £4 million, with a large sell-on clause.
“We could fight and discuss this all day. “His worth is whatever anyone is willing to pay.”
