Rangers face summer striker issue amid transfer link and £8m valuation

Rangers face summer striker issue amid transfer link and £8m valuation

The only surprise is that local talent like Bojan Miovski was completely overlooked as Rangers spent a lot of money in the summer trying to replace players like Ryan Kent and Alfredo Morelos.

The rumored £535,000 acquisition from Hungary has scored 20 goals, give or take, in the last two seasons in a team that is far from inventive, and it now seems as though Gers manager Philippe Clement has missed the mark—that is, if he was interested.

The Aberdeen forward may once more be overlooked due to Bojan Miovski’s price tag when the Rangers team needs forward reinforcements in the summer.

Rangers and Bojan Miovski miss the boat.

The former Dons keeper Joe Lewis, Kris Boyd, and Chris Sutton discussed the qualities of the North Macedonia international after he scored at Ibrox and why neither of the two Glasgow giants had made a move for the 24-year-old on Sky Sports in a rare moment of punditry rather than pantomime.

Boyd answered, focusing on the Rangers and the reason Bojan Miovski wasn’t a given in January.

“Finances, obviously, are a big factor. Rangers invested a lot of cash in that top end of the field during the summer, and it didn’t quite work out.”

“Maybe now that Lammers has moved on, Dessers, there were rumors in January that someone might have been interested.

“If he had moved on, there might have been a chance; they could have gone and got someone.”

Lewis responded as follows when the former Gers hero asked him how much he believed the Aberdeen talisman was worth:

“£8 million plus extras.”

We would be asking for almost twice as much if Rangers had a striker with 20 goals, and at 24, Bojan Miovski is equipped to play at a higher level.

With the players Michael Beale already had, we didn’t need to sign Lammers (see Todd Cantwell’s current form as the ideal example), and we most definitely overpaid for Dessers.

Miovski wouldn’t have cost us £8 million, the amount we paid for Lammers and Dessers, in the summer or even January when we were linked, but he will now, and another chance has been lost.
