The 22-year-old defensive talent had been on the radar of Rangers’ scouting team for some time, with the club hopeful of securing his signature. Anselmino, a highly rated young player, impressed with his performances in the Italian Serie A, and his potential seemed like a perfect fit for Rangers, who are looking to bolster their defensive options.
However, despite the Scottish club’s interest and apparent efforts to negotiate a deal, Anselmino has opted to join Marseille on a loan deal. The move to the Ligue 1 outfit could provide the young defender with valuable playing time and exposure to top-level competition, but it also leaves Rangers in a difficult position as they look to strengthen their squad for the second half of the season.
Rangers had hoped to bring in a player who could offer depth and quality to their defensive ranks, especially as they chase silverware in domestic competitions and in Europe. Anselmino’s decision to move to Marseille represents a setback for the Ibrox club, and fans will be left wondering what the next steps will be in terms of potential signings. It remains to be seen whether Rangers will turn their attention to other targets or continue to pursue Anselmino in the future.
