Rangers are leading the battle to obtain the services of Rapid Bucuresti striker Albion Rrahmani, according to Digisport.

The Romanian news agency said on 6 June that Nils Koppen even held conversations with his representatives after meeting them at a transfer summit in Cancun, Mexico.

It’s claimed that Rapid are asking for a fee in the region of £6.8million to trade the Kosovo international this summer.

Rangers must sign Rrahmani but aim to bring down his price

Rrahmani is a quality striker but he will be regarded an expensive purchase for Gers at the asking price.

The 23-year-old Kosovo centre forward has bagged 17 goals in 25 league games this season, displaying his ability to reach the back of the net frequently.

His experience in the Super Liga, where he holds the record for the most expensive player, and the Kosovo national team illustrates his adaptability and capability to perform at a high level in numerous systems.

Gers are eager to add to their firepower in attack over the coming weeks and Rrahmani’s goal-scoring prowess and adaptability make him an ideal prospect.
