Glasgow Rangers suffered one more Champions League meltdown on Wednesday night. Liverpool emerged from Ibrox with three factors and a 7-1 victory that leaves the Ibrox aspect pointless on the backside of Group A.
Much has been made about weaknesses in sure positions and the truth that Giovanni van Bronckhorst hasn’t considerably improved the beginning XI, nonetheless, the issue seems to be extra mentality based mostly, particularly within the elite of the Champions League.
The Light Blues missed out on a couple of targets in the summertime switch window, nonetheless, it was a participant they had been linked with again in January which may have improved the workforce…
Francis Amuzu would have been a wonderful signing
Back in December final 12 months, Rangers had been linked with Amuzu forward of the January switch window, with Van Bronckhorst eager to bolster his squad.
Unfortunately, a transfer didn’t materialise because the Dutchman needed to persist for the remainder of the marketing campaign with Scott Wright on the appropriate wing, and with no actual backup to the 25-year-old, many had been performed out of place.
Wright netted seven instances in 37 matches final season, however apart from that, his enter was marginal at finest, receiving a SofaScore score of 6.96.
Amuzu scored nine objectives alone within the Jupiler Pro League for Anderlecht final season, chipping in with three assists to show that he may shine on the highest degree.
The 23-year-old, though primarily a midfielder, can operate on both wing, and this versatility would have been good for Van Bronckhorst final season.
Although born in Ghana, Amuzu represents Belgium at youth degree, profitable 14 caps for the U21 aspect, scoring twice.
After 18 matches in all competitions this season, the participant has five purpose contributions already, four greater than Wright, and the choice to not convey him to Ibrox is trying prefer it’s coming again to hang-out the supervisor.
Amuzu was dubbed a “baller” by the NXGN Twitter account, which focuses on up-and-coming expertise all through the world of soccer, and it’s clear that he will transfer on from Anderlecht.
It seems just like the Ibrox aspect have missed their likelihood in terms of bringing the 23-year-old to Glasgow, as larger golf equipment will quickly be sniffing across the participant earlier than lengthy.
