Fabrizio Romano reports that Rangers have now come to an agreement to sign Fluminense left-back Jefte.
Since he is presently on loan with the Cypriot club, the Italian journalist said on Friday, January 26, via his personal X account, that the trade with Brazilian team Fluminense is finalized, but the Gers are still seeking APOEL’s approval.
It is believed to be a long-term arrangement, and Jefte, 20, has personally committed to a three-and-a-half-year contract at Ibrox.
Transfer frenzy is still going strong.
Rangers are having a great winter thus far.
To strengthen the attack, Wolves signed Fabio Silva on loan, while earlier on Friday, it was announced that Mohamed Diomande would be arriving from FC Nordsjaelland after his work visa was finalized.
The Gers are now acquiring a new left-back, a position that has been desperately needed for a very long time.
Borna Barisic is likely having one of his best seasons as a Rangers player, but there are always concerns about his fitness and the chance that he may have a complete meltdown.
Although Ridvan Yilmaz did score against Hibernian earlier this week, he has not been a very impressive addition and has frequently been linked to a return to Turkey.
Twenty-year-old Jefte has made three goals and four assists in 18 Cypriot league games for APOEL this season, indicating that he is a capable attacker.
In any case, Jefte is a left-back who came out of the Fluminense academy, much like Marcelo, the most decorated player in Bernabeu history and a legend of Real Madrid.
