Ryan Kent - Rangers

[IanMcL]

A cut above the rest, in the local derby, today.

A player going places....Burnley, if we could afford him.

They coughed up about £7 million to get him didn't they?

Liverpool will have sell on clauses, so they're going to want serious money if they sell him on, especially as he's still got 3yrs left on his contract.

Wouldn't be surprised if its going to need £20 million to get him and we can't offer him trophies or European football...

Two years left isnt it? Coupled with potential Champions League football next season, next summer might be a better chance but who knows. Definitely looks a player anyway

I thought he signed a 4yr deal?
That's my point, we can't offer him much to get away from Rangers.

Money and Premier League football?

[ksrclaret]

Rangers have a handful of players who could add something to a team like us.

Tavernier, Goldson, Barisic, and Kent are the ones who stand out. Steven Davis in midfield is also very good but unfortunately is nearing the end at 36.

Leeds have a big interest in him. He is a player I’ve like for some time

Yeah he signed on a four year deal in 2019. This is his third season there, the last two on a permanent deal.

So next year when he's had another season in Europe and maybe won some more domestic trophies, he might be more open to leaving (and Rangers more open to cashing in)

[giveusaB]

Always liked Tavanier and would be great in out team.Attacking right back and scores goals.Pity he’s just signed a new 3 year contract.

I don't know what his wages are there, but European football... Trophies...

[fatboy47]

10 posts and nobody has said "" more chance of us signing Clark Kent""

A quick search suggests £20k per week, who knows how accurate that is. But I thought it was pretty common knowledge that we could blow the likes of Rangers out of the water financially.

The trophies and a little taste of European football may have its appeal, but I don’t see many players turning down Premier League clubs to play in Scotland.

More chance of us signing Clark Kent

[IanMcL]

Or Rhino Neal
Or Clarke Carlisle perhaps!

You never know. A word from Scott Arfield and he could be ours!

Nobody cares about Scottish trophies, that's why all the players and managers jump ship to England at the first possible chance. As for European football, the qualifying rounds don't really count.

Leeds were heavily linked last summer, and if you believe the rumour mill they had a bid of £10m turned down, however all the talk up here is he's going to sign a new contract, so if that's true then both Burnley and Leeds can forget about signing him.

He is one of the few that probably could make the step up to the PL though, and he would definitely offer us creativity and goals from midfield which we're desperately crying out for.

As per my post in 2019 about Ryan Kent, welcome finally to the party !!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok its scottish football but he's young, direct, commits defenders and proved on sunday in a tense environment he can score big goals and he's fiesty as Browns chin found out !!!!!!! Breeding at liverpool and rangers currently certainly seen alot worse 7M tagets IMO.

Another one potentially missed as the club chose instead to furiously built up those cash reserves...

[Hedontplayforyou]

Won’t hurt to test the water a bit. Although I suspect even if we were interested in Kent that he’d be a non starter for us

Yeah because of his age in 2019 it was a no brainer as you would be "almost guaranteed" to get your money back / or make a tidy profit if you only kept him for 3-4 years and you decided to sell / we got relegated / or a big offer came in - look as safe a risk as you could probably get back 2 years ago.

[IanMcL]

Signing him back then, he would be never have gained the edge he has now.
