A report from Belgium suggests that Standard Liege are close to getting Ross Wilson to come up with a full fee for Nicolas Raskin.
Micky Beale has been putting pressure on his transfer guru to get the deal completed with Standard laughing away an offer of just €500,000 for their midfielder.
Raskin is out of contract in the summer but the low-ball offers from Ibrox have been swatted aside with a full fee and 20% sell-on clause deal almost ready to be signed off.
Standard specialist Kevin Sauvage of Belgian site DH net reports:
As we know, the Liégeois has an agreement with Rangers but the two clubs cannot agree. As we wrote last week, the Rouches turned down an initial offer of €500,000.
On Sunday, they refused two more, one of which was around €1.6m all-inclusive. Negotiations continued late into the evening, and for good reason. It comes back to us from Scottish sources that the agreement concluded by the Liégeois with the Rangers expired on January 29 if the clubs had not found common ground.
The negotiations continued late into the evening of Sunday and the agreement was almost found around 2M € (including bonuses) and 20% on resale, Standard thus obtaining what it wanted.
During the day, an offer also arrived from Germany but Raskin was desperate to join Rangers. The full agreement is expected on Monday.
It seems unusual for an agreement to run until January 29, with two days left in the window Beale has made it clear that he expects more than Todd Cantwell to join his Revolution.
