Modern football is a 24-hour business and instant in terms of how news is reported with Rangers providing enough content for their own TV channel.
Transfer rumours used to be reported on the back pages of the newspapers, however, now they are on social media as soon as they break.
There has been an update in Rangers proposed move for Albion Rrahmani and it is a very 2024 situation.

Albion Rrahmani drops Rangers move hint in Instagram action
Nils Koppen has held talks with Rapid Bucharest over a potential deal with a £5m transfer fee said to be the price tag being negotiated.
After scoring 19 goals in 30 games with five assists, Rrahmani has shown that he can lead the line and be the difference at the sharp end of the pitch.
At 6ft 2 inches tall, Rrahmani has the frame to handle the physicality of Scottish football to go with his natural finishing ability.
Things seem to be going well as Rangers look to replace Kemar Roofe who left at the end of his contract.
The latest news has taken only a little bit of digging after Rrahmani was reported to have missed training with sporting director Daniel Sandu claiming that there are offers in for Rapid’s star man.
Why would a player, based in Romania, from Albania, start following a restaurant in Glasgow?
This is exactly what Rrahmani has done.
On the 23-year old’s Instagram account, Rrahmani is now following Pulp, who has several Rangers stars amongst its clientele.
Maybe his new manager, Neil Lennon, has recommended it.
It’s a sign.
Rangers need to speculate to accumulate for Rrahmani quality
Rangers are desperate for more firepower and a more clinical forward line.
There were individual mistakes that cost Rangers last season, however, it was not scoring the first goal and missing chances to add a second to kill teams off that cost Philippe Clement more.
Creating opportunities to score, despite so many injuries, wasn’t really a big issue.
Oscar Cortes has been secured and will be fully fit for the beginning of pre-season training, as will Danilo and Yusuf Kabadayi is tipped to be the next signing through the doors at Auchenhowie.
Already, there is more pace and players who are used to the big club environment with Kabadayi coming from Bayern Munich and Clinton Nsiala from AC Milan.
Rangers should consider renaming the player trading model to “the Calvin Bassey model” because, ultimately, he is the poster boy for the club’s recruitment.
Albion Rrahmani is going to cost more than a development fee if a deal can be concluded but this is the going rate for strikers and there are positions where Rangers will need to spend.
If he signs, at least he has found somewhere nice to go for lunch when he’s not at the training ground.
