Rangers are intensifying their transfer activities as they eye two players from Sunderland, Romaine Mundle and Dan Neil. Danny Rohl, the manager, is focused on revitalizing the squad after a challenging summer.
January Transfer Goals for Rangers
This January is crucial for Rangers. Rohl seeks to address weaknesses after losing Dujon Sterling and Connor Barron to long-term injuries. Enzo Le Fee and Wilson Isidor, players already at Sunderland, are also part of the conversation, but the focus is now on bringing in fresh talent.
Targeted Players
- Romaine Mundle: A left-winger, Mundle is a £2 million signing from Standard Liege. Last season, he netted five goals in the Championship but has seen limited playing time in the Premier League.
- Dan Neil: The defensive midfielder was the captain of Sunderland’s promotion-winning team last season. He aims to regain form after limited appearances this year.
Depth Strengthening and Transfer Strategy
The need for reinforcements has been emphasized by Andrew Cavenagh during a recent meeting. He highlighted that bolstering depth in left-back, midfield, and attacking areas is a priority. Currently, Rangers are finalizing a significant double deal worth £7.5 million for Tuur Rommens and Tochu Chukwuani, both of whom are set to significantly enhance the squad.
Manager’s Insights
Rohl expressed the necessity of increasing goal production in the team. He stated, “It’s not just about the No.9. In general, we have to increase our goals.” This reflects his broader approach to squad improvement during this transfer window.
With both Mundle and Neil reportedly available, Rohl’s strategy could see even more activity in the coming weeks. Black Cats manager Regis Le Bris has indicated openness to letting players go who are not getting sufficient game time, further shaping the transfer landscape.
As Rangers pursue these signings, fans eagerly await how the squad will transform and if these moves can drive the team towards success this season.
