Rangers have had to be patient in their attempts to land Fares Ghedjemis, but it seems their efforts have been in vain. The 23-year-old Algerian winger has been at the forefront of transfer plans for the Bears in recent days, but Frosinone's valuation has proven to be a stumbling block. Despite an initial £6million offer and a subsequent improved offer of £8m, the Light Blues have been knocked back once more.
What happened?
Rangers' fresh stance on Fares Ghedjemis revealed, but it seems their interest has cooled due to Frosinone's stubborn valuation. The Bears have now turned their attention to PSV's Couhaib Driouech, who is reportedly a key target for the Scottish Premiership club.
Why it matters for Rangers
Rangers are looking to add further attacking reinforcements after Derek McInnes was left disappointed with the 2-1 loss to Jagiellonia Bialystok on Thursday. The 49ers still want to sign further competition on the wings, and Couhaib Driouech could be the answer.
What comes next?
The Morocco U23s star netted twice at Anfield as PSV shocked the Reds with a 4-1 win last November. Now, Rangers could be getting that same talent coming to Ibrox, as he would compete with the likes of Findlay Curtis, Mohamed Diomande, and Djeidi Gassama for a spot on the left-hand side of attack.
Rangers are hopeful of striking a new transfer agreement, with talks ongoing after a recent £6m offer for the Moroccan. The Bears are looking to make the 24-year-old their 10th addition of the summer, with Ghedjemis now out of the transfer picture.
