Rangers Future Latest on Nicolas Raskin After Improved Transfer Bid 'Rejected'
Rangers preferred a permanent deal and kept the Belgian midfielder in the squad as Besiktas made a season-long loan offer, sources said.
- Rangers rejected Besiktas's second bid for Nicolas Raskin on Wednesday, refusing to lower their valuation of the Belgian midfielder after the Turkish club failed to meet the Ibrox club's asking price.
- Besiktas sought to sign Raskin, who was expected to leave after an impressive World Cup with Belgium; however, Ibrox chiefs preferred a permanent deal, and the Turkish club's offer failed to meet Rangers' valuation.
- Derek McInnes started Raskin in Wednesday night's 2-1 Premiership victory over Falkirk, with the manager praising the midfielder's attitude and stating he would be delighted if the player remained at the club.
- Raskin remains under contract for another two years, placing Rangers in a strong negotiating position; unless Besiktas significantly improves their offer, the midfielder looks increasingly likely to stay at Ibrox.
- With most European transfer windows now closed, Raskin's options have become limited; the Scottish summer transfer window closes on Thursday, September 3 at 5pm, leaving the midfielder's future at Rangers uncertain.
