Vaclav Cerny’s dazzling form at Ibrox has priced him out of a dream return with clubs, mainly in Turkey ready to offer him a 3.5m euros salary.

That works out at just under £3m a year, around the same pay scale as Jack Butland, James Tavernier and Danilo are on.

Despite the hype and spin of the ‘takeover’ it seems that an austerity drive is underway to finally flush out the high wage culture at Ibrox.

Last summer John Lundstram and Kemar Roofe walked away when they were offered new deals on vastly reduced terms.

The Daily Record can always be relied on to find a positive take on bad news, they have been in top form every day of the close season with more outstanding content for their army of readers:

That sensational form is set to price the Wolfsburg wideman out of a permanent switch to Glasgow.

The 27-year-old’s parent club have slapped a £9million fee on his head.

And continental sources have told Record Sport that Cerny has a range of bids from across Europe that could see him bank an eye-watering salary of up to 3.5million euros a year.

Record Sport understands those kinds of figures will put him out of Rangers’ price range, even with the £20million kitty set to be injected into the Light Blues’ coffers by the club’s new American owners.

Less than two weeks ago the Record were explaining a far bigger war-chest to their army of readers

It seems that there isn’t even a Malik Tillman clause in the Cerny deal where the Ibrox club are paid to take a player on loan and are given a cut of any future transfer fee.

The good news for Record readers is that Oscar Cortes is signing from Lens for a fee of £4.5m.

Smart phones and social media created a new landscape, Video Celts has certainly made an impact with Joe described as having an unhealthy obsession by Peter Lawwell at the 2024 Celtic AGM. A priceless endorsement, cheers big man.

    They say the £3.5m salary and the £9m transfer fee puts him out of their limits. Yet they wax lyrical about getting Conor Coady in even though he too is on £3m + pa?

    He hardly fits the player trading model at nigh on 33. The DR is coming up with all sorts of targets they have no hope of achieving.

    I only ever accept a transfer story when they are being paraded in the club’s colours

  • Harold Shand says:

    Make Cerny the first signing and it will be the new owners sending out a real statement of intent

    That’s what these Daily Record gimps were saying not so long ago

    95% of the written sports media in this best wee country in the world are just excitable fans of one particular club and are lucky enough to have a platform on which to scribble their fantasy wish lists that are normally reserved for doon the pub or on the bus to the match.
    Its embarrassing stuff but when you have necks of solid brass and brains of solid concrete you don’t really care what others think do you? You just know the peepel your targeting will be masturbating to your every word.
