Overview
- Raskin came off the bench to score in Belgium’s 5-0 friendly with Tunisia on Saturday, and match statistics for his roughly 10 minutes on the pitch — 11 passes, a chance created, a recovery and a touch in the box — have increased his visibility to buyers.
- Sources have told Football Insider that Rangers now expect strong interest in Raskin this summer and acknowledge they may struggle to keep him given his rising profile and two years remaining on his contract.
- Ibrox recruitment is reported to be speeding up to identify replacements, with Dan Neil linked via Alan Nixon and Football Insider naming Bobby Clark as targets being tracked by the club.
- Pundit analysis, notably from Kris Boyd, frames a sale as a practical way for Rangers to raise funds to refresh a squad that finished the season trophyless and missed Champions League qualification.
- If Rangers sell Raskin during the World Cup window, the club could use the transfer fee to fund signings and reshape leadership in midfield; supporters should watch for formal offers during the tournament and for follow‑up moves by the club such as further recruitment after signing Tochi Chukwuani in January.
