“Finance Guru Drops BOMBSHELL: Rangers’ £5M Exit Deal Could SKYROCKET to Millions More After SHOCKING Transfer Twist!”

Rangers are preparing for a crucial Champions League qualifier against Greek giants Panathinaikos, with a significant financial incentive tied to their potential progression.

The club is also actively reshaping its squad ahead of the new season.

The Gers are on the verge of completing their second summer signing, with Max Aarons expected to join on loan from AFC Bournemouth.

The English right-back will follow Lyall Cameron, who recently became the first addition of the window.

However, while reinforcements are arriving, the Ibrox side may soon see one of their key players depart.

Nigerian forward Cyriel Dessers is reportedly the subject of transfer interest, with Greek club AEK Athens already having a bid rejected.

A renewed offer is said to be imminent as the Athens-based side remain keen on landing the 30-year-old striker.

Despite topping the scoring charts in the Scottish Premiership last season and claiming the Golden Boot, Dessers has divided opinion among fans. Now, Rangers appear open to letting him go—if the price is right.

Football finance expert Dan Plumley has offered insight into the potential deal, highlighting the club’s opportunity to make a profit on the reported £4.5 million paid for Dessers.

Speaking to Ibrox News, Plumley said:

“Yes, it’s a smart move when you consider more than just the upfront transfer fees. You have to factor in amortisation and wage costs over time.

“Dessers signed a four-year deal, and we’re now two years into it, meaning his book value is likely in the region of £2 million or slightly more.

“If Rangers can sell him for £5 million at this stage, it’s potentially a solid piece of business given the age profile and remaining contract.”

He added, “While his individual wages haven’t been publicly disclosed, they would naturally affect the overall net gain.

But turning a profit on a 30-year-old striker after two years, especially in this market, makes sense.

“It reflects the financial discipline Rangers are maintaining, especially with Champions League ambitions and the necessity of balancing spending with sensible outgoings.”

With a fresh bid from AEK Athens anticipated, the final decision now rests with Rangers. Dessers, who netted 29 goals in all competitions last season, played a pivotal role in the club’s attacking efforts.

However, with a new managerial direction under Philippe Clement and the squad undergoing restructuring, there’s growing speculation that Dessers may have played his final match for the club.

Rangers now face a key decision—whether to cash in on a potentially profitable deal or keep hold of their top scorer ahead of a pivotal European campaign.
