Rangers told price it will take to land troyes star metinho

THE IBROX CLUB HAVE THE 22-YEAR-OLD ON THEIR SHORTLIST OF TARGETS AS THE 49ERS GET SET TO FUND SUMMER ACTIVITY 17:43, 02 Jun 2025 Rangers have been told what it will take to land Metinho

this summer. The 22-year-old star is on the Ibrox club's transfer shortlist and Gers made an enquiry to his club, Troyes, as recently as last month. The French Ligue 2 outfit - who are

part of the City Football Group - are willing to cash-in on the player this year before his contract expires next year as they look to avoid losing him on a free. But it is understood Troyes

are looking for close to £5million for their player who was signed in 2021 for £4m from Brazilian side Fluminese. Rangers' new owners are willing to fund a summer of transfers to

challenge rivals Celtic and Metinho is believed to be a major target. And DR Congo-born Metinho was identified before new recruitment chiefs Kevin Thelwell and Dan Purdy officially began

their roles this week. Article continues below The midfielder spent last season on loan with FC Basel where he made 28 appearances. He has also had stints with Lommel and Sparta Rotterdam

previously. It's understood clubs in the English Championship and MLS have also made contact with Troyes over Metinho while Basel are keen to make his switch permanent. Despite no

manager officially in the post at Ibrox as of yet, the club still hope to add strength to their ranks. It comes amid interest from Everton in Mohamed Diomande as the Toffees look to keep a

closer eye on their spending this coming campaign. Follow _RECORD SPORT_ on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram for all of the up-to-the minute breaking news, video and audio on the SPFL, the
