“They paid far too much” – Pundit blames Rangers for €35m midfielder who is not good enough for top flight football
Rangers’ record transfer is already under fire, with one outspoken pundit branding the €35 million deal for their new midfielder a “waste of money.”
The Scottish giants splashed out heavily during the summer to secure the player’s signature, but early performances have raised eyebrows. Far from dominating games, the midfielder has struggled to impose himself, prompting doubts about whether he has the quality required to thrive at the top level.
Speaking after Rangers’ latest fixture, the pundit didn’t mince his words:
“They paid far too much. €35m for a midfielder who isn’t delivering at the top flight is outrageous. Rangers needed a difference-maker, not someone who disappears when the pressure is on. Waste of money, I said it then and I’ll say it now.”
The harsh verdict has divided opinion. Some supporters agree that the transfer fee was excessive, while others insist the player deserves more time to adapt to life at Ibrox and Scottish football’s intensity.
With rivals Celtic watching closely and domestic pressure mounting, the midfielder’s future performances could prove decisive in whether Rangers’ bold gamble turns into a long-term investment or an expensive mistake.
