After bringing Jose Cifuentes from Scottish Premiership powerhouse Rangers to Brazil, Cruzeiro coach Nicolas

Larcamon believes he has acquired a “very complete player.”

It’s hard to shake the impression that he was somewhat set up to fail in Glasgow, especially considering he came to

Ibrox after making an impression as an attack-minded midfielder at LAFC on the other side of the Atlantic.

Jose Cifuentes appeared to be being used—or abused—by Mick Beale in a more defensively focused capacity. One

that concealed his abilities and revealed his flaws. The harm to Cifuentes’ image had already been done when Beale

was fired and Philippe Clement took over, as the Ecuadorian international was forced to return to South America

after just six months and nine appearances in the Scottish Premiership.

For Cifuentes, the good news is that Cruzeiro’s head coach seems to have a greater understanding of him than Beale

did. Undoubtedly, Nicolas Lacarmon is familiar with the 24-year-old. In the 2023 CONCACAF Champions League

final, his Leon team defeated Cifuentes’ LAFC team.

Larcamon tells Globo Esporte, “About Cifuentes, I played against him in the Champions final.”

“He’s a very versatile player who possesses a wide range of skills.” Both with and without the ball, he can play both

phases of the game quite well. “He joins to add something to the squad and to strengthen the midfield.”

A fresh start

CIfuentes signs a contract with an option to buy after joining on loan (BBC Sport). Although his potential salary from

a permanent transfer is currently unknown, several reports have suggested that Rangers might collect about £2 million for him.

Ridvan Yilmaz, on the other hand, is one player who won’t be leaving Ibrox before the end of the Scottish transfer window.

Following weeks of rumors that the former Besiktas star may be returning to Turkey, Galatasaray has agreed to sign

Derrick Kohn, a left-back from Hannover in the German second division.
