Rangers transfer state of play on Botheim, Kipre, Cassierra, Archer and Simons

The summer transfer window is well under way but has been pretty quiet for Rangers...so far.

Gio van Bronckhorst 's side have already tied down Connor Goldson, Steven Davis and Scott Arfield but there is much more to do before the 2022/23 campaign kicks off.

John Souttar has penned a permanent deal from Hearts, making his way to Ibrox in time for the season starting after signing in January.

Allan McGregor is out of contract with Morelos, Kent and Aribo entering the final year of their Ibrox contracts.

But the Gers boss has his eye on a number of players, with fresh links to Norwegian striker Erik Botheim and West Brom defender Cedric Kipre emerging in recent days.

Mateo Cassierra may still be an option for Rangers

The 25-year-old has been in scintillating form for FC Sochi and had been eyed up as a potential alternative to his countryman Morelos, whose contract expires next summer.

His agent appeared to pour cold water over the links though as he named a list of five clubs keen - but left Rangers out of the mix.

However reports in his homeland named Monterrey as being interested - another club his agent failed to mention.

Rangers have placed their offer on the table to secure the major new signing of Erik Botheim, according to BBC Scotland .

Marseille are also keen on the striker who is a free agent this summer.

The Norwegian is now set to review his options before making his final decision after tearing up his contract with Krasnodar.

He was previously prolific for Bodo/Glimt and is hot property on the free transfer market.

Rangers have been linked with Aston Villa striker Cameron Archer, according to TalkSport.
