Rangers forward Cyriel Dessers could be set for a January departure from Ibrox, with reports linking the striker to a potential move to a club on the continent.

The Nigerian international, who joined Rangers in the summer, has struggled to make a consistent impact in Glasgow and may now be offered an opportunity to reignite his career elsewhere.

Dessers arrived at Rangers with high expectations after an impressive spell with KRC Genk and a solid season at Cremonese in Serie A. However, his time at Ibrox has been marked by inconsistency, with the forward finding it difficult to replicate the form that earned him his move to Scotland. Despite flashes of promise, Dessers has faced criticism for his lack of goals and struggles to adapt to the pace and physicality of the Scottish Premiership.

The speculation surrounding Dessers’ future comes as Rangers look to reshuffle their squad during the January transfer window. Manager Philippe Clement is reportedly keen to bring in new attacking options to bolster the team’s chances in the second half of the season. With competition for places heating up, Dessers’ departure could free up space and resources for fresh additions.

Clubs across Europe are said to be monitoring Dessers’ situation, with interest reportedly coming from Belgium, Italy, and the Netherlands. A return to familiar surroundings in Belgium or the Netherlands, where Dessers enjoyed the most successful spells of his career, could be an appealing option for the 29-year-old. Meanwhile, clubs in Italy may also view him as an experienced striker who can add depth to their attacking ranks.

For Rangers, a potential move would likely depend on receiving a suitable offer for Dessers, whose contract runs until 2027. The club will want to recoup as much of their initial investment as possible while ensuring that any deal aligns with their long-term plans.

While no official bids have been reported yet, the growing interest in Dessers highlights the forward’s enduring reputation as a capable player with untapped potential. For the player himself, a move away from Ibrox could provide the fresh start needed to rediscover his best form and make a greater impact elsewhere.

As the January window approaches, all eyes will be on Rangers and Dessers to see how the situation unfolds. Whether he stays to fight for his place or seeks pastures new, the coming weeks could prove pivotal for both the player and the club.
