Borna Barisic’s agent is due to fly to Turkey for talks with Trabzonspor who are interested in the Rangers left-back, according to a report. The Croatia international is out of contract in the summer and has been expected to move on with no deal seemingly in the pipeline. That now looks set to accelerate with the Super Lig side looking to sign him.
Sports Digitale claim that talks have already taken place and his representative will go for face-to-face discussions. In a separate report,say Trabzonspor have long held an interest and that an agreement is now ‘close’. Previously, the 31-year-old has been linked with huge clubs like Roma, Aston Villa, Verona and Dinamo Zagreb but it remains to be seen if they will offer alternatives to the Turkish side. Trabzonspor are performing well this season and are third in the table although they are some way behind Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. Former Celtic loanee and Barisic’s fellow Croat Filip Benkovic is part of their squad. The left-back has been at Ibrox for six years and was a key player in his early seasons. But this campaign has seen him falling out of favour with Ridvan Yilmaz emerging as a key player. Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our Rangers WhatsApp community today.
