According to John Walker, the Rangers must sign Connor Barron from a “astonishing” Aberdeen team to replace Ryan Jack. The midfielder leads Jack, John Lundstram, Nico Raskin, and Dujon Sterling in winning ground and aerial duels, according to the UEFA coaching candidate’s analysis of the player’s statistics on Twitter on March 4. The Belgian is the only player who trails him in tackle percentage. James Bisgrove, Philippe Clement, and Nils Koppen are urged to go before the summer transfer window as the 21-year-old is expected to be a cost-effective choice since he would just need a development fee once his contract is up. “Come on, Nils, Big Phil & Bisgrove… let’s sort this one out!” Walker wrote. He is still among the top players available in an astonishing Aberdeen lineup: £400–500k for the development fee. £5-8k per week in wages.All of that would be necessary to have a reasonably “Like for Like” Ryan Jack substitute lined up for the summer.

Since Warnock arrived, Barron’s passing statistics have significantly decreased, but Aberdeen’s inability to hold the ball is a problem. “He would fit right in with every aspect of our style at Rangers, both with and without the ball.” It is quite unlikely that Jack, 32, will receive a contract extension given his injury history; it now expires at the end of the current campaign.Although Mohamed Diomande has already made a substantial contribution to the midfield, there may be movement in the coming months due to Raskin’s recent serious decline in form and Lundstram’s incomplete contact discussions. There is perhaps room for additions because Jose Cifuentes, who was believed to be a long-term fixture, only spent half of the season at Ibrox and is not expected to return after a lengthy loan at Cruzeiro.Lennon Miller, the teenage sensation from Motherwell, has previously been mentioned as a potential Rangers target. However, at just 17 years old, he is still maturing there, so it could be best for him to stay put for the time being.But, Barron would be a good candidate to follow in Jack’s footsteps and move from Pittodrie to Ibrox seven years later if the mathematics work out. The Dons, on the other hand, are reeling under Neil Warnock and are not far from a real relegation struggle. Clement has been instructed to cease whining about Scottish football, according to other Rangers news.
