Rangers had a somewhat positive conclusion to their pre-season schedule following a busy afternoon in Berlin.
Now that his team is clicking in possession, playing some good football, and projecting energy, all Philippe Clement needs to do is put an end to the individual mistakes made by the defense.
However, the team still lacks talent, and the management is eager to bring in more players who can step in right away for the first team, such as Vaclav Cerny.
Rangers aim to bring in more expertise with Joan Jordan
According to Fernando Serrano of Bombonera Insider, who has updated us on Joan Jordan’s proposed relocation, there may be another on the way.
Cerny’s announcement is encouraging and demonstrates the kind of signing—in terms of experience—that Clement has been discussing:
“I’m happy to see that he possesses great skill and value; he has demonstrated this on the international scene in Holland and the Bundesliga. As previously mentioned, we wouldn’t invite just young players. We have to start over and bring in both young players for the future and seasoned players who are aware of what to do on the field in every circumstance.
Joan Jordan is much more superior to Cerny because of his extensive experience playing European football with Sevilla in La Liga.
He is exactly what Clement is seeking for, a natural number six.
With him in the center of a team that has won the Europa League twice, who better to maintain control of the midfield than someone who has set the pace?
Rangers and Sevilla strike a Jordan agreement.
Serrano claims that Rangers may soon bring him to Ibrox to oversee operations:
Sevilla FC is awaiting Jordan’s final affirmative response after accepting Rangers’ offer. Included in the transfer will be a voluntary €4 million buy option.
At first, it was believed that Jordan, 30, would sign a contract with an offer that amounted to around half of his salary.
However, things have changed, and Sevilla is eager to have Jordan sign a long-term contract with them.
Rangers were only interested in a loan arrangement, though, as players of his caliber are not cheap.
Given the Spaniard’s contract, even that will come with a weekly cost of about £41,000.
Serrano asserts that an agreement has been struck and that the terms and circumstances now include a £3.3 million option to buy.
For a player his age, it would seem like a lot of money, but he would be a sure starter and someone who would benefit everyone around him.
There is a cost to be paid if Rangers want experienced players who are ready for the first team, and it appears that Joan Jordan has decided to pay it.
