Rangers FC are reportedly preparing a sensational move to bring former striker Cyriel Dessers back to Ibrox next summer, in what could be one of the most surprising transfer twists of 2026. The Nigerian international, who left the club for Panathinaikos last summer, remains highly regarded by the Rangers hierarchy for his work ethic, physical presence, and proven eye for goal in Scottish football.
Sources close to Ibrox suggest that club officials have maintained contact with Dessers’ representatives and are monitoring his situation closely in Greece. With Rangers expected to revamp their attacking options ahead of next season, a return for the 30-year-old striker is seen as a realistic target—particularly if Panathinaikos are open to negotiations.
Dessers enjoyed a productive spell during his time at Rangers, finishing as the club’s top scorer in the 2024/25 campaign and earning praise for his commitment and consistency. Fans remain divided on his potential return, but many believe his experience and familiarity with Scottish football could provide the stability Rangers need up front.
If the move materializes, it would mark a dramatic homecoming and a major statement of intent from the Ibrox board.
