Rangers transfer roundup: Jamie Vardy’s status after personal arrangements at Ibrox were agreed
Ahead of their Champions League qualifying match against Panathinaikos on July 22, the Gers have already recruited five new players to Russell Martin’s roster, but they are also acknowledging the possibility that they may lose a number of their key players.
Although the 22-year-old’s probable departure has dominated the headlines at Ibrox in recent weeks, Kevin Thelwell and company have been busy working on plenty of deals of their own. Martin left out Hamza Igamane for the recent preseason opener as the Moroccan continues to eke out a move to Lille.
According to BBC journalist Nizaar Kinsella via X (8 July), Rangers’ bid for Samuel Edozie was reportedly rejected. The 22-year-old is a long-term target for the Gers and was a member of the Saints team that was promoted to the Premier League under Martin in 2023–2024.

The wide player played most of the previous season on loan at Anderlecht, where he finished fourth in the Belgian top flight with three league goals and two assists. Rangers are now showing interest in the Southampton player, but other teams are anticipated to enter the race to recruit him.
Despite Sheffield Wednesday’s continued financial struggles, Rangers have agreed to sign Djeidi Gassama from the Championship team. The 21-year-old winger is expected to sign a four-year contract at Ibrox after reaching a personal agreement prior to a possible transfer.
According to Scottish Sun journalist Roger Hannah (8 July), Jamie Vardy is now viewed as unlikely to join the Gers after leaving Leicester after 13 seasons with the East Midlands team, despite still being a key player at the age of 38. The French youngster will be an exciting addition to Martin’s squad, having scored seven league goals from the flanks last season.
