Breaking News:Todd Cantwell set to be sold for bargain as Rangers transfer twist revealed

UK

Rangers midfielder Todd Cantwell is set to have a meeting with Blackburn on Wednesday, 28 August, according to Alan Nixon.

 

The Sun journalist reported on 27 August that Gers are set to sell the 26-year-old for a bargain fee.

 

 

 

Rovers are prepared to buy the English playmaker but have also offered him a loan deal ahead of the transfer deadline.

 

Rangers must only accept a permanent transfer for Todd Cantwell

Selling Cantwell to Blackburn Rovers makes financial and strategic sense for Gers.

 

Given the Englishman’s desire to leave, as indicated by his transfer requests, his sale could provide Rangers with immediate funds to bolster other areas of the squad before the transfer window closes.

This move could prevent a scenario where Cantwell’s departure at the end of his contract would yield no financial return.

 

Opting for a permanent transfer over a loan is beneficial for the Ibrox outfit because it ensures they receive a fee now, rather than potentially losing him for free or on a tribunal-set fee if he were to leave on a Bosman or as a free agent later.

Moreover, a permanent sale clears his wage bill, allowing the club to invest in players more aligned with the current squad’s needs or future plans, enhancing team cohesion and potential performance.

This approach also avoids the risk of Cantwell returning from a loan spell with no guaranteed playing time or further integration into the team’s plans.
