Scottish giants Rangers FC have reportedly tabled a R55 million offer for Bafana Bafana striker Iqraam Rayners!

“It’s true the offer is there and it’s around R55 million but you know it’s the Sporting Director (Flemming Berg) who deals with such things,” – an insider told Soccer Laduma.

“He is the one in charge of the dealings at the club and the others do contracts and daily running only. But as far as the outgoings and the incomings are concerned, it’s the Sporting Director and the offer came through his office but it’s there.”

According to insiders close to the situation, Fawaaz Basadien is back on Mamelodi Sundowns’ radar and the club are preparing to outbid Kaizer Chiefs for him!

“They (Mamelodi Sundowns) feel Basadien is the kind of left back they need as he can defend just as well as he can attack,” an insider told Soccer Laduma.

“That’s why they are working hard behind closed doors to bring him to Chloorkop and they know Kaizer Chiefs were also interested in him and that he won’t come cheap at all. But they are ready for that.”
