“For Sure” – Senior Figure Reacts as Rangers Confirm Commitment to Permanent Winger Signing

Philippe Clement addressed the club’s commitment to signing Oscar Cortes permanently, affirming that it was a sound decision.

The 21-year-old Colombian winger is currently on loan from Lens, and the Belgian manager is confident in his potential.

Clement expressed his support for the move, stating that Cortes has demonstrated the qualities needed to succeed at the club.

As quoted by Four Lads Had a Dream, he said, “Yes, Oscar has proven that. So, it’s about us as a club getting him fit again. He’s still a young player. So, for sure he will do that in the future.”

Despite Clement’s belief in Cortes, there remains significant scepticism among fans regarding his impact.

Since arriving at Ibrox, he has struggled to consistently prove himself, with his performances marred by inconsistency and injury setbacks.

Supporters have raised concerns about the £4 million fee committed to securing his transfer, expecting a greater immediate contribution to the squad.

His lack of game time due to fitness issues has only intensified doubts over whether he represents value for money.

Cortes now faces the challenge of proving his critics wrong at Rangers. His sporadic availability has led many to question whether the club’s investment was justified.

Some believe Clement’s confidence in him is more a reflection of the financial commitment already made rather than his actual performances.

Since the club is obligated to complete his transfer regardless of form, Clement has little choice but to back him.

However, it is now up to Cortes to justify the faith placed in him. Once fully fit, he must seize his opportunity to showcase his ability and let his football silence the doubters at Ibrox.
