49ers Enterprises Eye Statement Signing as Rangers Target Versatile PSG Forward
With 49ers Enterprises aiming to make a lasting impact, Rangers are reportedly on the verge of signing a highly versatile forward who has been persuaded by the club’s long-term vision ahead of the summer transfer window.
The 49ers’ Ambitious Plans for Rangers
As they edge closer to completing their takeover of the Glasgow giants, the 49ers are keen to restore Rangers to their former glory and challenge Celtic’s growing dominance in the Scottish Premiership. Their success at Leeds United has already shown they can bring transformative change, and similar ambitions are now being set for Rangers.
However, the scale of the challenge at Ibrox is significant. With a managerial vacancy to fill and a growing gap to their Glasgow rivals, the American ownership group must make the right moves this summer.
A host of names have already been linked with the managerial post. Rafael Benitez brings experience, while a return for Steven Gerrard—who controversially left for Aston Villa in 2021—would undoubtedly spark debate. Other intriguing options include Danny Rohl and Davide Ancelotti.
With the domestic season now wrapped up, a decision on the managerial front is expected soon. Interim boss Barry Ferguson’s short spell at the helm has also come to an end, though he has made no secret of his desire to take the role permanently.
Ferguson recently told reporters: “Everybody’s got an opinion. I don’t care about people’s opinions—I know I can do the job. I’ve got a strong backroom team, and I’ve said before, it doesn’t scare me one bit.”
Recruitment Begins with PSG Starlet Oumar Camara
Off the pitch, the 49ers’ recruitment strategy appears to be underway, with reports emerging of a deal for Paris Saint-Germain talent Oumar Camara. According to RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins, Rangers are set to land the 18-year-old forward, who has been convinced by the club’s project under the incoming regime.
Camara, who captained PSG’s U19 side this season, is expected to make the switch to Scotland in the coming months, potentially becoming the first signing of the 49ers era. Capable of playing on either wing, he has tallied nine goals and four assists in 25 appearances this season at youth level, though he has yet to break into PSG’s senior squad.
His impending move appears to be driven by a desire for first-team football, and while it remains to be seen if he can make an immediate impact at Ibrox, his signing could signal a shift in Rangers’ recruitment focus under the new ownership.
Camara’s arrival might just be the beginning, as the 49ers look to reshape the squad and build a new era of success at Ibrox.
