Video: Rangers Linked With Sporting’s Gelson Dala…And Fans Should Be Excited

Rangers have been linked with a move for exciting Sporting Lisbon forward Gelson Dala – and we reckon Gers fans should be pretty excited at the prospect of nabbing the youngster.

As we approach the transfer deadline for signing players of Thursday night, inevitably clubs like Rangers are going to be mentioned in the same breath as dozens of players and Dala is the latest name doing the rounds on social media.

So apparently @RangersFC enquired to @Sporting_CP @SportingCP_en about taking Gelson Dala on a season long loan. pic.twitter.com/nkhVKgAL6C — The Rangers Family ? (@OneFamily_RFC) August 30, 2017

Rangers to bring in:

Declan John (loan)

Jamie Walker

Gelson Dala (Loan)@PedroCaixinha expects deals to be completed by deadline tomorrow. — The Rangers Family ? (@OneFamily_RFC) August 30, 2017

The Angolan international has scored an impressive 13 goals in 17 matches for Sporting’s B-team, and whilst we accept any player can look like a superstar on YouTube, Dala’s highlights reel are pretty eye-catching:

Reports in Portugal suggest the 21-year-old is indeed available for loan – so could this be another chance for Pedro Caixinha to show-off just how extensive his contact book is?

What do you think? And is another forward what Rangers need before the window slams shut?
