Rangers are closing in on the signing of striker Kyle Lafferty even though he played for Hearts on Saturday, according to a club insider. $bp(“Brid_32517474”, {“id”:“13259”,“width”:“16”,“height”:“9”,“video”:“274134”}); The Four Lads Had a Dream blog, which has emerged as a very reliable source of Gers news this years, reported on Saturday evening that the Glasgow giants are in advanced negotiations with their SPL rivals over a deal for the Northern Ireland international. Four Lads explained in a Twitter exchange with a concerned supporter that a deal is now nearly agreed and “I expect it to be done barring any disasters”. Rangers are in no rush as cup tied this weekend As I said & have consistently said, both teams are working towards a deal, not quite there yet but working towards it – I expect it to be done barring any disasters That hasn’t changed — Four Lads Had a Dream (@4ladshadadream) August 18, 2018 Good move for Rangers? This Is Futbol rating 8/10 Likely to happen? Yes, all signs are pointing that way. Lafferty dropped to the bench for Hearts’ trip to East End Park in the Scottish League Cup on Saturday, but came on as a substitute in his side’s 1-0 win over Dunfermline. However, he could not play for Rangers this weekend – Gerrard’s side are in action on Sunday – in any case as he had already been cup tied. The deal is not done yet, but it would be a major surprise now if it did not. This Is Futbol rating 8/10
