Rangers: Ibrox departure negotiations have commenced, and Borna Barisic is needed in Turkey before the season ends.

As per Yunus Emre Sel, Trabzonspor has signed Borna Barisic from Rangers to replace Eren Elmalı, who is anticipated to get offers to relocate to France.

On March 12, the Turkish journalist for Sabah and Fotomac revealed on his YouTube channel that the Turkish defender is set to leave the Super Lig, with bids expected to get more expensive as the season draws to a close.

Since the Croatian’s contract at Ibrox expires in the summer and he is free to negotiate terms with European clubs, the club has already chosen to pursue Barisic in his place.

Before the current campaign finishes, Trabzonspor hopes to sign seven players. The Rangers player is one of their top targets, and they have already had discussions with his agency.

Barisic appears to be ready to move because his negotiations with Rangers have not resulted in a good outcome despite being open for months [Football Scotland, 3 November].

The Croatian’s delivery is on par with anyone in the SPFL, but he has frequently faced criticism for his defensive play.

Given that Brazilian Jefte is expected to join at the end of the season, the club can likely afford to let the 31-year-old go now that he has lost his spot to Ridvan Yilmaz.

But, it will mean that another veteran player leaves the team without receiving a contract, following the departures of Ryan Kent, Alfredo Morelos, and Filipe Helander in the summer for no reason at all.
