Kim Min-Su was named in Girona's starting XI for their Segunda Division match away to Cordoba on Tuesday evening, giving Rangers another live look at a player they have reportedly tried to sign this week.
The 20-year-old started on the left side of Girona's attack as the Spanish side played their second league match of the 2026/27 season, with kick-off at 8pm UK time at Nuevo Arcangel. Girona entered the game after an opening-day draw with Leganes, and they were still adjusting to life in the second tier after last season's relegation from La Liga.
Why the start matters
Kim Min-Su's inclusion is the latest development in a transfer story that has already moved quickly. Rangers reportedly had a bid in the region of €7-8 million rejected by Girona this week, with the Spanish club valuing the winger closer to €10 million. That means the chase remains active while the window is still open, and each Girona appearance offers another chance for Rangers to assess how he is being used.
It is also a reminder of why he has attracted attention. Last season, Kim Min-Su spent a productive spell on loan with FC Andorra in the Spanish second tier, building on the reputation he has developed as a winger who can contribute in a competitive league. Girona's decision to start him in back-to-back league games suggests they are prepared to lean on him as they look to steady themselves after relegation.
Rangers' interest continues
Rangers signed Bojan Miovski from Girona last summer, so there is already a recent connection between the clubs. Now Kim Min-Su has become the latest Girona player linked with a move, and Rangers are still trying to strengthen in a few areas, according to Derek McInnes. He said, “We are trying in a few different areas to get the right players in, but it's players with the right quality.”
For now, the key point is straightforward: Kim Min-Su was in Girona's XI against Cordoba, and Rangers' reported pursuit is still alive. If the Scottish club come back with another offer, Girona's position on the 20-year-old will be one of the next things to watch.
