Rangers transfer news has put Nicolas Raskin in the spotlight after Atalanta were in touch about the Belgium midfielder. The price tag is more than £17m. Any move would have to wait until after the World Cup.
Atalanta and Raskin
That valuation gives Rangers a clear starting point if the interest turns into formal talks. More than £17m is not a loose estimate here; it is the number attached to a midfielder who has become one of the more expensive names in the round-up.
Atalanta's contact matters because it places Raskin in a different bracket from the usual transfer chatter. He is not being framed as a squad filler or a cheap option. The reported figure says Rangers would be dealing with a major bid if the interest develops.
World Cup timing
The wait until the end of the World Cup adds a hard timing line to the story. Even with contact already made, any sale would be pushed back, which gives Rangers time before they have to decide whether to engage on the valuation or hold their ground.
For a player valued above £17m, that delay keeps the situation in a holding pattern. Atalanta want Raskin, but the move cannot happen immediately, and that leaves Rangers with one immediate question: whether they are willing to sell on those terms.
Rangers' transfer window
The wider picture inside the same transfer round-up shows Rangers linked with multiple names, but Raskin is the one carrying the clearest price. Youssef Chermiti is also tied to a valuation of £25m, while other clubs in the roundup are working on different targets and offers.
For now, the story is simple. Atalanta have made their interest known, Rangers have a valuation above £17m on the midfielder, and the World Cup timetable means nothing moves fast from here.
