Rangers Set Transfer Fee for Kwame Poku Deal
Rangers have moved a step closer to securing the signing of Ghanaian winger Kwame Poku after a transfer fee was officially established. The Scottish Premiership giants have been linked with the Peterborough United star in recent weeks, and negotiations appear to be progressing positively as both clubs work toward finalising the deal.
Poku, 22, has enjoyed an impressive spell at Peterborough, standing out with his pace, creativity, and goal-scoring ability. His performances in League One have attracted interest from multiple clubs, but Rangers are now in a strong position to secure his signature. Reports suggest that Peterborough have set a clear asking price for the talented wide man, giving the Ibrox side a transparent path forward in their pursuit.
Although the exact figure has not been publicly disclosed, sources close to the negotiations indicate that the fee is considered within Rangers’ financial reach. The deal is expected to include performance-related add-ons and potentially a sell-on clause, in keeping with Peterboroughโs transfer model. Rangersโ recruitment team, led by manager Russell Martin, is believed to be keen on finalising the move swiftly, especially with Champions League qualifiers on the horizon.
Poku, who can operate on either wing or as an attacking midfielder, fits the profile of player Martin is aiming to bring to Ibrox this summerโyoung, dynamic, and with the potential to develop into a top-level performer. The Ghana international made significant strides during the 2023/24 campaign, registering goals and assists in crucial matches and playing a key role in Peterboroughโs push for promotion.
Bringing in Poku would strengthen Rangersโ attacking options and provide healthy competition across the front line. With several first-team players expected to depart or face increased competition for places, the addition of a versatile winger could prove pivotal in the clubโs domestic and European ambitions.
Rangers are understood to be optimistic about their chances of sealing the transfer, particularly after receiving encouraging signals from the playerโs representatives. Personal terms are not expected to pose a significant hurdle, as Poku is reportedly enthusiastic about the prospect of playing in Scotland and testing himself on the European stage.
With the fee now set, the focus will shift to formalising the agreement and potentially completing a medical in the coming days. If successful, Poku could become one of Rangers’ key signings of the summer window.
