The Rangers team has undergone significant changes since winning the Scottish Premiership title in 2021. One key player from that championship-winning team, Glen Kamara, could be on the verge of a major transfer just under 11 months after his move to Leeds United.
Under the leadership of Steven Gerrard, Rangers secured their first title in a decade three years ago, ending Celtic’s quest for a 10th consecutive league triumph. The squad was completely rebuilt over the course of three years, with players like Borna Barisic, Ryan Jack, and Kemar Roofe departing this summer. There are also doubts surrounding the futures of James Tavernier and Connor Goldson, with the latter reportedly being targeted by Birmingham City.
Several key players from the title-winning side, such as Joe Aribo, Calvin Bassey, Allan McGregor, Filip Helander, Ryan Kent, and Alfredo Morelos, have already moved on in recent years. Glen Kamara, who joined Rangers in 2019 and played a crucial role in their success, was sold to Leeds United for a significant fee last August.
Leeds’ failure to secure promotion to the Premier League meant that Rangers missed out on potential add-ons in Kamara’s transfer deal. Now, the Finnish international is reportedly attracting interest from Ligue 1 side Stade Rennais. The French club, who finished 10th in the league last season, are looking to strengthen their midfield following the departure of key players.
Rennes’ pursuit of Kamara is part of their efforts to reinforce the team after losing players like Jeanuel Belocian and Fabian Rieder to other clubs this summer. With the transfer window still open, it remains to be seen if Kamara will make a move for the second consecutive year, this time to the French top-flight.
