2025/26 Youssef Chermiti

[bullybeef]

Good luck to the lad.
Not really been given any game time here.
Managers obvs didn’t fancy him.
Begs the question why did we sign him in the first place?

 

[W84 Dum Freeze]

….i doubt he’d go there to work with Thelwell again, unless he tells the new Rangers owners to move him on just like Moyes may have done.

Along with that Damp Pudry recruitment fella, Send Chermiti to the Dutch League for his own improvement please

 

[Esgehtvoran]

Awful league to send him to

Probably the only league that wants him tbf.

 

[MACCA75]

Was a crazy signing at a time when we needed to spend every penny wisely. There is a time for a teenage punt, and that summer absolutely wasn’t it.

The business is a mess mate, they wont be spending big money there, there will be an investment approach to try and polish gems, they badly need to generate revenue.

This is were deals for the likes of Chermiti come in.

They should have folded and called it a day after the HMRC ended the old club.

It’s gradually getting there.

Signed two players last summer for a combined £2.5m and they’ve just left and generated £18m for them

You'd have to say fair play mate, seem to have invested a fair bit to this summer comparatively to departures, you'd hope part of the profit on player sales would be going of the losses.

But bodes well on good player identification and scouting!

You'd hope theyd start paying their debts.

 

[Bedfordblue]

can we consider Rangers / SPL as ‘top flight football‘ ?

just checking opinions.

Michael Ball wasn't it or possibly Andre, the really bad thing was in truth when they hit the wall and the local and community business's were left swinging for money owed...significant money for them.

On Chemitti i dont see whty we carry the risk of an option, if he doesnt do well up there they wont sign him and stock plummets - they wont sign him and we wont be able to sell him for anything to try and recoup our outlay.

If he does do well, then they can sign him on the basis of a valuation today and not if he say scores 15 goals up there and we loose a player we could potentially sell for more.

Why should we carry the risk for them, dont see any advantage to us here.

could have a recall clause, if he goes and scores a few, someone like PSV might fancy a punt, so he gets some game time, and earns a step up.

Lets face it, if he can't get games and goals in Scotland, it's probably all over.

Its also if he does get games and goals and we've agreed an option for £4mill or something mate (Rangers dont spend big fees), the option if true just seems non sensical to me as it only benefits Rangers.

It'd be a hell of an admission of failure to write off 2/3 of what we spent to sign him just to gift wrap a player to them. Rangers aren't in any euro competition are they? No cup tying?

Rangers are in the Europa League mate.

Their record transfer fee is £12 mill for Tore Andre Flo mate, 25 years ago, next on the list is Michael Ball at £6.5 mill and the totality of that prob wasn't even paid in the end.

These days £5mill signing is huge money for them.

They wont be giving us a big fee if there is an option.

Surely the Championship or Spain, Portugal is a better market to try and sell him into.

Hes utter pony tho, so getting 4m for him would be a proper result.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

He’s clearly deemed not good enough or he’d be going to the championship or a better foreign league like Branthwaite did… a striker doing well in SPL doesn’t really prove anything nowadays

Moyes certainly didn’t flinch at saying he needs a loan so clearly not up to it
