Kemar Roofe to Rangers: Transfer 'imminent' as Anderlecht striker looks set for Ibrox switch
RANGERS are close to striking a deal with Anderlecht attacker Kemar Roofe, according to reports.
The Englishman switched to Belgium from Leeds United last summer for a fee of £7million.
At the time Ibrox boss Steven Gerrard was keen to bring him to Glasgow but a contract could not be agreed.
But now reports in Belgium suggest that a move is "imminent" with a multi-million pound deal on the table.
Roofe, 27, scored six goals in the First Division last season in 13 appearances and his deal expires in 2022.
Any potential switch would, of course, depend on Alfredo Morelos' future.
Reports have suggested that French side Lille have agreed personal terms with the Colombian.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
