Confirmed: Negotiations for Rangers’ largest-ever signing are “Very Advanced.”
Football Insider has been informed by sources that Rangers‘ bid for Yusuf Kabadayi, the winger for Bayern Munich, has been accepted.
The German powerhouses have given the Light Blues permission to speak with the 20-year-old as he gets closer to moving to Ibrox.
Although Kabadayi has interest from Turkey as well, a transaction has not yet been finalized. However, sources indicate that the Rangers’ move is “very advanced” and should be completed shortly.
The winger, who has one more year remaining on his Bayern contract and spent last season on loan at Schalke in Germany’s second division, has been in talks with Rangers for some time.
The wide player, who plays for the fallen giants, is a Germany Under-20 international who scored five goals in 26 games.
After the domestic season ended, Rangers went on a transfer spree, and they have already completed the signing of four new players.
Yusuf Kabadayi from Bayern Munich is expected to join Rangers.
They have declared the arrival of Connor Barron on Friday, prolonged the loan for Oscar Cortes, and verified the captures of Jefte and Clinton Nsiala.
Despite having gone through Bayern Munich’s youth, Kabadayi never played for the senior team before signing his first professional contract in 2023.
He was loaned to Schalke as soon as he signed the two-year contract, where he played in 24 senior matches and scored four goals in the previous campaign.
According to sources, the winger’s time at Bayern is over, and the team plans to cash in before his contract expires in 2025.
Many would view the player’s arrival as Rangers’ biggest statement acquisition of the summer, considering his skill, status as a Germany youth international, and current club.
