Ranger’s manager Ally McCoist has confirmed Rangers have made two moves in the January transfer window. Estonian right back Ernaar Jaager has accepted a week, long trial with the club, beginning on Monday. Jaager is currently unattached, although has been rated at £1.5 million by his former employers.
The club have also approached St Johnstone’s Spanish forward Fransico Sandaza about signing a pre-contract agreement which would see the 29 year old join in the summer for free. Although McCoist refuses to rule out the possibility of the striker joining in this window. This however would be the decision of St Johnstone and manager Steve Lomas.
Rangers have been linked with Hibernian forward Garry O’Connor, Spanish forward Javi Guerra and Arsenal youngster Benik Afobe. Asked about these rumours McCoist has said only Guerra has been looked at. The club are not interested in O’Connor and Benik Afobe is currently injured so the club won’t be approaching Arsenal about a possible loan move.
The future of top scorer Nikica Jelavic still remains in the balance. Jelavic has had a lot of rumour surrounding his future in recent weeks having been linked with moves to the English Premiership most notable Liverpool. McCoist said today though that the club have yet to receive any inquiries, never mind bids, for the Croatian hitman.
McCoist also confirmed US midfielder Maurice Edu was subject to two bids from French side Sochaux. Both however, where rejected and Edu has said he is happy and enjoying life in Glasgow with the SPL Champions. Edu has been a top performer in the first half of the season and Rangers are adamant he’s going nowhere.
