The Rangers Review has come up with the most far fetched transfer tale to deflect away from the failure to sign Malik Tillman.
According to the on-message Newsquest title a £1m cancellation fee is heading to Ibrox with a further windfall in the post with a 10% slice of any future transfer fee.
If there is any element of truth in this Ross Wilson is without question the most talented Sporting Director in the business, negotiating terms that others wouldn’t even think of.
The standard deal is that you PAY a loan fee and might get an option to buy but that is entirely dependent on the player agreeing to a permanent move. In this instance Tillman has made it clear that Ibrox is the last place that he’ll be playing at next season.
Funding a £5m fee while on UEFA’s Watch List looks like a risk too far but showing that the spirit of billionaires from Motherwell, moonbeams and succulent lamb lives on, the Rangers Review reveals:
The Rangers Review can confirm that Bayern Munich have cancelled the option-to-buy clause that was inserted in the deal to bring the 21-year-old to Ibrox on loan last summer.
However, Rangers will be compensated for the German club’s decision with a £1 million cancellation fee.
As part of the cancellation clause, Rangers will also be entitled to 10% of the fee Bayern receive from selling Tillman this summer.
The USA international is attracting serious interest from England, Germany and Italy with the expectation that he will be sold for a fee in excess of £10million.
Brighton and Brentford are monitoring Tillman’s situation while there are potential suitors from the Bundesliga, with one Serie A club having expressed an interest recently.
If Tillman’s sale proceeds, as expected, then Rangers are in line to net over £2m from Bayern due to their decision to terminate the option-to-buy clause.
After splashing out £3.5m for Sam Lammers Micky Beale will have to shift some deadwood before he gets access to the cheque book.
