AliousRangers Poised for Major Financial Boost Amid Growing Interest in Hamza Igamane
Rangers could be in line for a significant financial windfall this summer as the race for Hamza Igamane’s signature intensifies. The Moroccan forward has emerged as the club’s breakout star this season, attracting the attention of multiple European clubs, which could lead to a bidding war that plays in the Glasgow side’s favor.
Igamane, who joined Rangers from FAR Rabat in his homeland last July, has quickly adapted to life in Scotland, delivering 13 goals and three assists across 35 appearances. Virtually unknown in European football before his move, the 22-year-old has proven to be one of the rare success stories in what has otherwise been a difficult campaign for the Light Blues.
However, with Rangers struggling financially due to years of mismanagement, the club may need to consider cashing in on their prized asset—even with new ownership on the horizon.
European Clubs Circle as Interest in Igamane Heats Up
Igamane’s performances at Ibrox didn’t go unnoticed, with Everton expressing interest as early as January after the Moroccan striker began finding the back of the net consistently. Since then, his stock has continued to rise, with reports from *AfricaFoot on March 8 revealing that Sevilla and Marseille have now joined the race for his signature.
The Spanish club has reportedly dispatched scouts to multiple Rangers matches, closely monitoring Igamane’s development. With both Sevilla and Marseille now preparing to make formal approaches, Rangers could find themselves in a strong position to command a hefty transfer fee.
Rangers & 49ers Enterprises in a Strong Negotiating Position
Under Rangers’ previous ownership, the club’s financial constraints would have likely forced a quick sale at a cut-price deal. Historically, the club has failed to maximize profits from player sales, limiting their ability to close the gap on Celtic at the top of Scottish football.
However, the upcoming arrival of 49ers Enterprises as the club’s new owners will provide Rangers with more leverage in negotiations. Initial valuations for Igamane have been set around £25 million, but with multiple clubs now in the mix, the Gers could potentially push that figure beyond £30 million.
Such a sale would represent a staggering near-18-fold return on the initial investment made in Igamane less than a year ago. This injection of funds could significantly alleviate Rangers’ financial troubles while setting the stage for a more sustainable and competitive transfer strategy moving forward.
### **A Summer of Change at Ibrox?**
With increased financial backing and a potential record-breaking sale on the horizon, Rangers could use this opportunity to reinvest wisely in their squad. The funds generated from Igamane’s departure could provide the foundation for a fresh era at Ibrox—one where the club moves away from past financial struggles and toward a more ambitious and sustainable future.
