I wouldn't want McFadden at Ibrox

 

I have always thought he was decent player but very over-rated by the media here

just don't think he would fit in with our team just now strikes me as a bit of a luxury player

McFadden to us? No thanks Eck and we don't want Barry either! :razz:

 

Did you even have to mention that possibility. I am off to slit my wrists even at the thought of that happening.;)

Rangers Chase John Mensah

 

Revelations emanating from the corridors of Black Stars captain, John Mensah points to the fact that reigning Scottish league leaders Rangers are pursuing the strongman.

 

The Scottish giants have expressed keen interest in the Ghana captain and indications are that Mensah is considering all the options.

 

Rangers, the newly-crowned SPL champions, after emerging tops with 93 points and beating rivals Celtic with just a point, want to fortify the squad ahead of next season's Champions League, hence the interest in the Black Stars skipper.

 

'It is true that Rangers have expressed interest in John, but we are looking at other offers and taking into consideration the price tag before making a move,' Fabien Piveteau, the player's agent said in an interview.

 

According to the agent, a top-notch Greece side has also expressed interest in the defender.

 

'We have to sit with John's former club-Lyon for a better deal for both parties, for now, we are just considering some factors before taking the next plan of action,' Fabien added.

 

Steve Bruce rested Mensah in their last game against relegated West Ham when the Black Cats snatched a 3-0 away win.

 

The decision to rest the libero was to allow him enough rest for the Black Stars assignments in the next few days.

 

Mensah is expected home from his UK base tomorrow for the Michael Essien peace match involving African XI and World XI.

JOHN MENSAH claims he is a summer target for new Rangers boss Ally McCoist.

 

The experienced defender has just finished a controversial second loan spell at Sunderland and is due to return to Lyon this summer.

 

Mensah, who would cost around �£1 million, is attracting interest from Greece but is tempted by a possible move to Scotland and a crack at the Champions League.

 

"It is true that Rangers have expressed interest in John, but we are looking at other offers and taking into consideration the price tag before making a move," Fabien Piveteau, the player's agent, revealed. "We have to sit with John's former club-Lyon for a better deal for both parties, for now, we are just considering some factors before taking the next plan of action.“

 

The 28-year-old had an injury-hit time at the Stadium of Light and also made unwanted headlines when he was involved in a dressing room bust-up with Nedhum Onuoha after a defeat against Wolves earlier this month.

That saw Sunderland boss Steve Bruce decide not to take up the option to buy Mensah. Rangers are currently looking to add to their central defensive options with captain Davie Weir still to agree an extension and Madjid Bougherra entering the final year of his deal.

 

Rangers hope to kick-start their transfer activity when McCoist returns from America later this week.

Out-of-contract Scotland star James McFadden is on his radar, along with Blackpool winger Jason Puncheon and the Dundee United pairing of Craig Conway and David Goodwillie.

 

McCoist also hopes to try and thrash out a deal to keep on-loan Aberdeen defender Ricky Foster and would be keen to take fellow defender Kyle Bartley back from Arsenal.
