Ibrox transfer news: Rangers 'ambition' admired as they close in on 'massive signing'

Rangers are showing huge ambition by edging towards bringing Aaron Ramsey to Ibrox ahead of tonight's transfer deadline, according to journalist Pete O'Rourke.

The Gers went into the final day of the window having welcomed two fresh faces, in the form of James Sands and Amad Diallo, into the squad but they are understood to be closing in on securing the services of Ramsey.

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has revealed this afternoon that Rangers are set to sign Ramsey on an initial loan deal from Juventus.

Romano has confirmed the proposal includes an option for the reigning Scottish Premiership champions to make the central midfielder's move permanent.

It comes after The Athletic journalist David Ornstein claimed Ramsey was stationed in a private UK airport terminal while mulling over which offer to accept this morning.

The report suggests Ramsey had already turned down a switch to Burnley, while proposals from another Premier League outfit and club in continental Europe were on the table, but the 31-year-old feels heading to Rangers will be a good move for his career.

It also emerged earlier today that Wolverhampton Wanderers had been offered the opportunity to take Ramsey on loan for the remainder of the season.

O'Rourke believes Rangers have shown they mean business by moving to the front of the queue to sign Ramsey.

The Gers saw their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership standings cut to just two points at the weekend.

But O'Rourke feels Giovanni van Bronckhorst, who was appointed as the Glasgow giants' boss in November, deserves praise for making the deal possible.
