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:

🏥 Nicolas #Raskin a satisfait à 2 salves d’examens médicaux cette semaine et était bien à Londres mardi et vendredi pour un examen approfondi. Le #Standard réclame 2,5M€ + %tage à la revente pour le milieu du #RSCL mais l’affaire pourrait se conclure à ~1M€.— Sacha Tavolieri (@sachatavolieri) January 24, 2023
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.
