Cyriel Dessers has had to put up with being labelled all sorts since moving to Rangers. But the striker insists he’s happy to continue calling Glasgow home as he shot down speculation he’ll be next to join the Ibrox exodus, writes Andy Newport in Berlin. It’s been a summer of change in Govan as Philippe Clement attempts to clear his decks ahead of the new season.
The Gers boss has been told he has to shift out a string of high earners in order to free up funds for a fresh recruitment push.
John Lundstram, Borna Barisic, Ryan Jack and Sam Lammers’ substantial salaries have come off the Gers wage bill already. They’ll free themselves of Connor Goldson’s £37,000-a-week deal too this week when the defender completes his Cypriot switch to Aris Limassol.
At one stage earlier this summer it was rumoured that Dessers could also be on his way out, with sources in Greece linking the Nigerian international with PAOK Salonika.
