Rangers have emerged as one of the potential contenders for Hjalmar Ekdal, who is currently available for a loan move. Ekdal is eager to find a new beginning following a series of injuries that hampered his time at Burnley. Patrick Stewart, the Chief Executive Officer of Rangers, noted the club's interest in the January transfer window while stressing the necessity of making prudent decisions and avoiding short-term solutions. According to reports from Expressen, Rangers are among nine clubs interested in the sought-after Burnley defender, with Middlesbrough and several Italian clubs also showing interest. Despite the difficulties associated with the January transfer window, as pointed out by Stewart, Rangers are considering the opportunity to strengthen their injury-hit centre-back position with a responsive signing, yet they remain committed to withdrawing from any agreement that does not fit their disciplined strategy.
