Ibrox View: Rangers may return to table to sign ex PL attacking mid on free as Clement likes him

Rangers may look to bring in former Chelsea midfielder Marco van Ginkel on a free transfer as he’s someone Philippe Clement admires.

The Belgian admitted recently that the club are open to looking into the free agency market for ways to strengthen their squad.

The Daily Record reported on 31 July that Clement sees enough pedigree in the 31-year-old Dutch attacking midfielder for him to be a success at Ibrox.

According to Andy Devlin from the Scottish Sun, the club were confident of signing the midfielder who’s also played a handful games for AC Milan on loan.

Per Football Scotland, the Gers boss said: “Yes, we talked about that within the club and that was the initial plan. So we now need to find solutions within the squad to do it in a different way to before. Could we still look at free agents? That’s still a possibility, yes.”

Rangers must consider a free transfer for Marco van Ginkel

Due to the 31-year-old’s ability to play in varied midfield positions, Gers may return to the table for the Dutchman.

Van Ginkel’s experience, having played for high-profile clubs like Chelsea and AC Milan, adds a level of expertise that could be invaluable in Rangers’ ambitions for domestic success and European campaigns.

His ability to operate across midfield positions offers tactical flexibility, which is crucial for adapting to various match scenarios.

Moreover, his history of performing in the Champions League with PSV could be pivotal for Gers, especially in navigating the latter stages of European competitions where experience often proves decisive.

Rangers could benefit largely from signing Marco van Ginkel

Financially, acquiring Van Ginkel for free not only saves on transfer fees but also aligns with prudent squad management, allowing the club to maintain financial health.

His recent injury history, while a concern, has seen him regain consistency, suggesting he could offer reliability.

This move represents a low-risk, high-reward scenario for the Ibrox outfit, potentially enhancing their squad depth and quality without significant financial outlay.
