Rangers are reportedly keen on signing Anderlecht midfielder Kristian Arnstad before the transfer deadline, according to the Scottish Sun. The 20-year-old Norwegian has already informed his current club of his desire to leave, setting the stage for a potential move to Ibrox.
As reported on 27 August, Rangers are expected to pay £1.2 million to secure Arnstad’s services ahead of the 30 August deadline. This pursuit appears to be part of a broader strategy to strengthen the squad as Rangers look to close the gap on Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.
Rangers need players who can make an immediate impact, especially in high-stakes matches like the Old Firm derbies and key league games. Arnstad’s potential to be a game-changer is vital, and his arrival would be expected to enhance the team’s tactical setup and overall performance.
With the intense competition in the league and the ongoing battle with Celtic, any new signing, particularly one with Arnstad’s promise, will be expected to quickly establish themselves as a first-team regular and make a decisive impact on the pitch.
