Talks had progressed positively in recent days, but sources close to the deal have confirmed that no final agreement has been reached between the clubs involved.
The player, whose identity remains under wraps for contractual reasons, has already given his approval to join Philippe Clement’s side this summer. He is believed to see Rangers as an ideal next step in his career, with the lure of European football and a shot at domestic silverware proving a major attraction.
However, negotiations between Rangers and the selling club have encountered some complications, believed to be surrounding the structure of the fee and potential add-ons. While the overall valuation is not thought to be a major stumbling block, both sides are currently at a standstill as they seek to iron out the finer details of the deal.
Rangers remain optimistic that the situation can be resolved in the coming days, but they are also wary of dragging out discussions too long, especially with the start of the Premiership season already underway and Champions League qualifiers looming.
The pause has not deterred the player, who continues to wait patiently for a breakthrough. His current club, meanwhile, is also believed to be open to a sale, provided their conditions are met.
With several positions still needing reinforcement at Ibrox, this transfer could prove to be a key part of Clement’s squad rebuild. Rangers fans will hope that the deal can be revived quickly and avoid falling apart entirely. For now, all parties remain locked in dialogue – but the clock is ticking.
