Philippe Clement will need to add reinforcements in January with replacing Ryan Kent still a priority for Rangers.
It was a poor decision in the summer to not replace the 27-year old winger and an even poorer one to not replace Fashion Sakala, leaving the club desperately short of wide attacking options.
According to Yagiz Sabuncuoglu of Sports Digitale though, Ryan Kent might be the replacement Rangers are looking for.
Ryan Kent being considered for a return to Rangers?
Confused? Well, just think about the time Mark Hateley left and Walter Smith brought him back to the club because he knew what he could do or Richard Gough too.
On this occasion though, after being all but transfer listed by his manager, Ryan Kent, who was signed for a reported £7.5m, could be about to return to Rangers according to the Turkish journalist with 1m followers on X.
“Fenerbahce can loan Ryan Kent to another team so that he can play more during the break.
“One team each from England and Scotland follows the player.”
There are only two teams in Scotland that will, realistically, be able to afford Ryan Kent, Celtic and, of course, Rangers.
They don’t need him, nor would the probably want him but, given our reliance on Scott Wright, would a six-month loan be that bad an idea for Kent?
That Philippe Clement has managed to get a tune out of Wright and allowed Ross McCausland to shine suggests that he knows how to set up a team that favours wingers.
Looking from afar, there might be a hint of jealousy from Kent as he spends week after week on the bench or in the stands.
If Ryan Kent was to return to Rangers, Clement wouldn’t have the emotional connection that might make him feel that he has to start the Liverpool academy graduate every week.
We have already seen Todd Cantwell rotated and Danilo rested too.
As a short term fix, it makes sense financially but the new Gers boss should have his sights set on better if he is to return us to being the dominant force in Scottish football.
