Rangers Expected To Seal Second January Deal For 880K With Medical Already Completed

Standard Liege midfielder Nicolas Raskin is expected to seal a €1m (£880,000) switch to Rangers imminently, according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri.

The Belgian reporter says the 21-year-old “passed two rounds” of medical examinations last week ahead of the move being finalised:

It is believed that Raskin will sign a four-and-a-half-year deal with the Gers, taking his contract up until the end of the 2026/27 season.

The Belgian Under 21 international had been frozen out by Standard manager Ronny Deila, with the player refusing to sign a contract extension.

Despite having less than six months left on his current deal, the Pro League side were still hoping to get around €2.5m (£2.2m) for Raskin, but it looks as if they have accepted below half that amount.

The midfielder will be the Light Blues’ second signing of the January transfer window, with Michael Beale’s side having snapped up winger Todd Cantwell from Norwich City earlier this week.
