The 21-year-old, who impressed during his loan spell at Charlton Athletic and showed flashes of brilliance in limited Premier League appearances for Palace, has caught the attention of the Ibrox club’s recruitment team.
Rak-Sakyi is known for his pace, directness, and ability to beat defenders one-on-one—attributes that could prove vital for Rangers in domestic and European competitions. With manager Russell Martin keen to add more flair and depth to the flanks, the young Englishman fits the profile of a dynamic wide player who can thrive in a high-tempo system.
Sources close to the deal suggest that talks are progressing, though Crystal Palace are yet to make a final decision on whether to sanction a permanent transfer or loan deal. The Eagles are believed to be open to letting Rak-Sakyi leave in search of regular first-team football, especially with competition for places intensifying under Oliver Glasner.
For Rangers, the potential signing of Rak-Sakyi would underline their intent to build a younger, more explosive squad capable of competing in the Champions League qualifiers and challenging Celtic domestically. His versatility—capable of playing on either wing or even centrally—adds further value to the move.
Fans at Ibrox will be eager to see the club secure Rak-Sakyi’s signature quickly, with the new campaign fast approaching and early competitive fixtures looming large. If the deal is completed, it could prove to be one of the shrewdest moves of the summer for the Glasgow giants.
