“Rangers Eye Potential Defensive Reinforcement with Interest in Leeds United’s Charlie Cresswell as Transfer Deadline Nears”
Glasgow Rangers concluded their winter break with a 2-2 draw against FC Copenhagen at Ibrox on Tuesday.
They now shift their focus back to domestic competitions as
they prepare to face Dumbarton in the Scottish Cup. Manager Philippe
Clement may consider incorporating fringe players into the starting lineup for this match.
As the January transfer market approaches its final weeks,
Rangers have secured only one addition so far – a loan deal for Fabio Silva until the season’s end.
To maintain competitiveness in both European and domestic competitions, Clement may seek to bolster the squad with one or two more signings, especially considering the potential fixture congestion.
One potential target for Rangers is Charlie Cresswell, a highly rated defender from Leeds United.
The club had expressed interest in him during the summer transfer window
last year, but no deal materialized. According to pundit Carlton Palmer, Rangers remain among the teams interested in Cresswell. Recent statements from Leeds United’s manager,
Daniel Farke, suggest that Cresswell is not part of the immediate first-team plans, opening the possibility for a loan move. Clement might be tempted to pursue Cresswell in the final weeks of the transfer window to strengthen the team’s defensive options.
