Cyriel Dessers ‘close’ to leaving Rangers? | OneFootball

Cyriel Dessers has been at the centre of transfer talks this winter, and it looks like his future could be up in the air. Recently, Rangers manager Philippe Clement confirmed that a £4.6 million bid from Atlanta United was turned down. While Clement acknowledged that every player has a price, he emphasized that the offer just wasn’t enough to consider letting Dessers go. The manager also pointed out how valuable Dessers is to the team—he’s already scored three goals this season and had an impressive last season with 22 goals under his belt.

Interestingly, there were whispers about Dessers being close to leaving for Atlanta United earlier in the summer. Reports indicated that a deal worth around $6 million was nearly finalised. However, in a surprising twist, Dessers himself rejected the move. This decision may have caught some fans off guard, especially since he had also been linked with PAOK at one point before that deal fell through as well.

The situation remains fluid for Dessers and Rangers this winter. Although he’s currently part of the squad and contributing on the pitch, Clement couldn’t guarantee his stay beyond this transfer window. If another club comes knocking with an attractive offer, especially given the rise of Igamane, and the potential arrival of Lawrence Shankland. things could change quickly. For now, fans will have to keep their eyes peeled as they wait to see what unfolds in this ongoing saga.
