Rangers exit looks dead now as club suddenly agree £3m deal for rival target

It is said that Galatasaray and Hannover’s Derrick Kohn have come to an agreement,

ending rumors over Ridvan Yilmaz’s future with the Rangers.

Following Galatasaray’s 4-2 Turkish Cup victory over Bandirmaspor on Tuesday,

coach Okan Buruk reiterated his intention to bring in a new left-back

before the transfer market shuts on February 9.

However, it seems that Ridvan Yilmaz will not be returning home after weeks of conjecture

. Not yet, at least not yet.

Even if there was a £2 million difference between what Galatasaray was willing to

pay and what Rangers were asking, they were still in talks with the former

Besiktas left-hander as of last week. However,

it seems that they have now focused on a different option.

Derrick Kohn, a left-sided full-back for Hannover, a lower division team in Germany,

is reportedly scheduled to go to Istanbul tonight, according to Sporx.

Galatasaray and Kohn have reached an agreement; Kohn’s contract includes

a £3 million buyout clause, and he will join on loan. Several competing

Turkish publications corroborate Sporx’s assertions as well.

So Yilmaz’s 2-1 victory over Aberdeen over the week will not actually be his last game wearing Rangers colors.

The small defensive southpaw has been a shining light at Ibrox during the Philippe Clement era.

His all-action, explosive performance against Neil Warnock’s Dons was typical of a man

who has been preventing Borna Barisic from starting recently.
