During the January transfer window, Rangers have been searching for defensive cover.
Although they have already signed centre-back Rafael Fernandes on loan from Lille, Rangers supporters will be patient to see him play, according to Philippe Clement.
After John Souttar, Leon Balogun, Robin Propper, and Dujon Sterling lost games due to injuries, it became imperative to improve that area, which gave young Clinton Nsiala opportunities. Fans, teammates, and Clement have all expressed admiration for the Gers young player, but they would still prefer more choices.
James Tavernier’s injury also made right back a problem, forcing Ridvan Yilmaz, who is left-footed, to fill in on his opposite side.
It hasn’t helped either that Neraysho Kasanwirjo, a right- and central-winger, returned to Feyenoord following a season-ending injury.
So as well as the arrival of Fernandes, the club may hunt for someone who can play at full-back and were indeed offered someone, according to a report.
Rangers were offered Timothy Fosu-Mensah. Timothy Fosu-Mensah, a former full-back for Manchester United, is still searching for a club as a free agent after leaving Leverkusen in the summer.
Swansea is one of several clubs that have received an offer to sign the 27-year-old on a free transfer, according to Wales Online.
The other Championship teams are Middlesbrough, Queens Park Rangers, and Stoke City. Blackburn Rovers has reportedly declined because of doubts about his fitness. The story claims that Rangers, who shared Feyenoord’s concerns in the player’s home country, are no different.
According to reports, Fosu-Mensah has been working out with Ajax to maintain his fitness levels, and if he does well enough, he may be able to land a contract there.
His issues stem from his time at Manchester United, when a knee ligament issue forced him to end a loan at Fulham.
His first season was cut short after he signed for Leverkusen due to the same issue, and he missed the next year due to a hamstring injury.
Due to a knee injury and other fitness concerns, Fosu-Mensah missed the entire previous season and only appeared in 23 Bundesliga games throughout four seasons.
Given the current injury situation at Ibrox, it is understandable why there would be reservations about signing him.
The “fastest player in the Premier League” was Fosu-Mensah. The Dutchman, who could cover right-back, centre-back, and holding midfield, played a few games for Man United.
However, the Express claimed that he was the fastest player in the Premier League while he was on loan at Fulham.
While playing for the Cottagers, Fosu-Mensah recorded an amazing speed of 35.32 km/h before an injury ended his season. He was ahead of players like Mo Salah of Liverpool and Kyle Walker of Manchester City.
