H&H saying it's €22M plus €5M add-ons and a 10% sell on fee. Decent business and wish Calvin Bassey all the very best and another one who is welcome back to Ibrox anytime. 

 

Interesting to see who is brought in to replace CB and how much Gio gets to invest in the squad.

It should be interesting to know how much is up front and how much is payable over the next (presumably) few years. What we need now is cash flow for the season ahead, not the promise of liquidity to come. All in all though, as you say in your next post, this is the business model we have craved for the last 20-30 years.

Another positive is that Aribo was the only regular starter over the last 3 seasons. Patterson was a reserve right back and up until last season, Bassey was a reserve left / centre back.

Indeed. But we should also recognise that there's still some way to go before this can be expected to bear fruit every summer .... and that it isn't easy - there will be years when we don't make this kind of money. If you look at the current squad, we will have to devote first team opportunities to 2 or 3 fringe players in order to create future selling possibilities. That probably means finding regular space for the likes of King, Lowry, Sands, etc.

Great deal for Rangers and fantastic move for Bassey himself. Hopefully see him back at Ibrox in the CL for his new team (as long as he doesn't score!)

If this goes through and the terms are right, could it signal further transfer activity?

You'd like to think so, for sure.

I just hope we can bring in a LB, don't want to suffer Barisic for another season.

Just my opinion, I don't rate the guy at all. When he is at his best he is average, he is a liability and our weakness.
