chilledbear 16 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 ALLY McCOIST wants Marius Zaliukas as his defensive rock for next season. SunSport can reveal the ex-Hearts skipper tops the list of targets drawn up by the Rangers boss. Zaliukas, 29, is available for free after quitting the Jambos at the end of the season. And McCoist plans to hold talks with the Lithuanian international next week in the hope of luring him to Ibrox. Finding a dominant centre-half is McCoistâ??s top priority as he prepares for the Second Division. The Gers gaffer has weighed up various options and has now decided Zaliukas is the man he wants to stiffen his side which leaked too many goals last term. Zaliukas had seven years at Tynecastle after joining from FBK Kaunas in 2006 and became a Jambos legend as skipper for their historic 5-1 Scottish Cup Final victory over Hibs last year. It is unclear whether he would be interested in signing for the Ibrox side, but McCoist hopes he can sell him on the move. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/leaguedivision3/4960239/Gers-want-Super-Zally.html#ixzz2VZfCdzOp Wonder if they will issue a denial ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whosthedado 1,519 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I'd take Zaliukas in a minute. Exactly the type of player we need imo 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,281 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Have Goian and Bocangera reported back or has their agents indicated that they'll leave soonish? Zaliukas sure is a decent enough player, a CH that can score goals too. Can't say I have seen him much these last two years though ... NB: That rumour as such is quite old and I wonder how the Sun would get hold of Ally's plans for next week. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,182 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I'd rather we went for someone else to be honest. But considering our circumstances, he may be suitable enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Talking about central defenders, I have pinched this from FF. ''I am not one for claiming to have inside info, but thought I'd pass on what I was told tonight. One of my good friends went to University with Callum Morris and is best mates. apparently Callum plays for Dunfermline and was named in the div 1 team of the year. He is 6ft 3 and meant to be a solid, quick defender. I have no idea who the lad is or if he's any good but according to my mate Rangers might be signing him! Anybody heard anything about this lad? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 he's pretty ordinary and again rather shows a lack of imagination. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotter 0 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 he's pretty ordinary and again rather shows a lack of imagination. Or a lack of a scouting network, which we know to be the case! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Cooper 0 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Very good point and we can't blame ally for that. Who at the club is responsible for putting a scouting team together and delegating them tasks? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
