Rangers ‘maintain contact’ with highly-rated Brazilian transfer target after failed attempt to sign him

Rangers strengthened their squad with the additions of Oscar Cortes, Mohamed Diomande, and Fabio Silva during a

successful January transfer window.

However, the one acquisition that the Gers were unable to complete was the signing of highly-regarded left defender

Jefte from Fluminense in Brazil.

Fabrizio Romano claimed less than a week ago that an agreement had been reached between Rangers and

Fluminense for the young player’s services. However, the one stumbling block in the deal proved to be the APOEL

Nicosia, who were unwilling to cancel the star’s loan deal which is scheduled to run until the end of the season.

Gipedo claimed that the Brazilian team refused to pay the £500,000 that the Cypriot giants demanded in order to

end the temporary switch early. It is also said that the 20-year-old tried to force a move by missing practice.

Regardless, Jefte is expected to stay in Cyprus until the end of the season as he helps his team compete for the league

title. Before the transfer saga, Jefte had been having a great season with APOEL,

howing promise with three goals and four assists in 19 league appearances.

Given the uncertainty surrounding Borna Barisic’s future and his impending contract expiration, Rangers are still

looking to add a left back in the summer. In January, fellow left defender Ridvan Yilmaz was also strongly connected

to a transfer to Galatasaray, and the Turkish powerhouses might make a comeback in the upcoming months.

Reporter Dean Jones of Give Me Sport has maintained communication with the defender’s representation and is

aware that Rangers want to rekindle their interest in him during the summer transfer window. The source is aware

that the player was frustrated when the transfer to Glasgow fell through

because he had intended to relocate there in the summer.

According to Jones, it’s always encouraging to learn that a player has been attempting to stir up some controversy in

order to compel a transfer to your team. Later on in the game, you should support that person.

That isn’t always how things turn out. Sometimes, that chance is lost.

It has happened in a few well-known incidents

in the past. Joao Palhinha, for instance, was at one point close to joining Bayern Munich while playing for Fulham.

“He had all of his interviews and pictures taken at the training site, but it never materialized.

There was no sign of that deal during the next transfer window.

Therefore, it’s not always the case that the player gets a second chance to initiate contact. Rangers, though, seemed

to like him, and they will definitely keep an eye on him going forward.

“I am aware that they will maintain contact with the player to let him know he is still on their mind.”
