Kevin Thelwell, recently appointed as Rangers’ sporting director, brings a wealth of experience from his previous roles at Everton and New York Red Bulls. His extensive network and strategic approach to transfers could significantly influence Rangers’ recruitment strategy.
Drawing from his past transfer activities and known preferences, here are eight potential signings Thelwell might consider for Rangers:
1. Eddie Nketiah (Arsenal)
Thelwell has previously shown interest in Nketiah during his tenure at Everton, valuing his goal-scoring prowess. While a move to Rangers would be ambitious, a loan deal could be explored if Nketiah seeks regular playing time.
2. Armando Broja (Chelsea)
Broja was on Thelwell’s radar at Everton as a potential striker option. Given his limited opportunities at Chelsea, a loan move to Rangers could benefit both parties.
3. Largie Ramazani (AlmerÃa)
A versatile forward, Ramazani was considered by Thelwell as a cost-effective attacking option. His agility and creativity could add depth to Rangers’ frontline.
4. Tim Kleindienst (Borussia Mönchengladbach)
Thelwell had identified Kleindienst as a potential target to bolster the attack during his time at Everton. His physical presence and goal-scoring ability could be assets for Rangers.
5. Pablo Torre (Barcelona)
Rangers have previously been linked with Torre, and Thelwell’s connections could facilitate a loan move for the talented midfielder seeking more game time.
6. Malik Tillman (Bayern Munich)
Tillman’s successful loan spell at Rangers makes him a familiar figure. Thelwell might pursue a permanent deal to retain his services.
7. Jonathan Panzo (Nottingham Forest)
Panzo’s defensive capabilities and prior experience under Beale at Chelsea could make him a suitable addition to Rangers’ backline.
8. Luis Palma (Aris Thessaloniki)
An exciting winger, Palma has been scouted by Rangers before. Thelwell’s expertise in identifying emerging talents could reignite interest in the Honduran international.
