Sources: Rangers ‘listening to offers’ for Nico Raskin | OneFootball

Ibrox Noise sources tell us that Rangers are listening to offers for Nico Raskin. The Belgian midfielder, once seen as a central figure in the rebuild, now finds himself in the same awkward limbo that engulfed Todd Cantwell under former manager Philippe Clement. This decision has raised major questions about the current direction at Ibrox and how quickly priorities can change for high-value players.

Supporters expected Raskin to be one of the first names on the team sheet this season. Instead, the club made a clear decision to leave him out of their crucial Champions League first leg XI v Plzen. That exclusion speaks volumes. When a player valued at over £25M ends up on the fringes, the message could not be louder. This is no minor rotation or injury cover. This is a hard stance.

Many fans compare this to the way Clement handled Cantwell. That decision sparked plenty of debate and it looks like history may repeat itself. While Clement’s judgement on Cantwell attracted attention, the decision regarding Raskin has exploded. Ibrox is a place where heroes fall fast and loyalty only stretches as far as the next performance. That said, Raskin’s fall from grace has been brutal.

Now with Rangers listening to offers for the midfielder, interest has already grown across Europe. Premier League scouts and Serie A clubs have kept eyes on him since his arrival from Standard Liege. The talent remains, but questions over attitude and adaptability continue. The manager’s ruthless approach suggests he sees no time for sentiment. If you do not fit his style, you will not play.

This entire saga carries serious implications for how Rangers value their own assets. Letting a £25M-rated midfielder leave sends a stark message. If not handled well, it could lead to unrest behind the scenes. Depth in midfield looks strong, however but if injuries hit hard during the campaign it changes.

The noise around Raskin will not fade quickly. Whether a deal goes through this month or not, the relationship between the club and player feels broken. Fans will hope this does not mirror the Cantwell situation completely, but the signs are there. The fact remains that Rangers listening to offers changes everything. Once trust goes, recovery becomes almost impossible.

No matter the final outcome, the Nico Raskin situation has become one of the biggest Rangers talking points in recent memory.
