When Rangers are “linked” with a player, if they move to another club it always gives you a good idea as to whether or not the reports are accurate when their next destination is revealed.
Carlos Mendes Gomes has, as expected, left Morecambe but isn’t on his way to Ibrox, instead, he is heading for the bright lights of Luton Town – coincidentally where Motherwell’s Allan Campbell has also ended up.
The 16-goal forward was a star in their promotion campaign and had earned rave reviews from analysts that report on all things Rangers, however, it looks like – if he continues his current development trend – that Luton will be the ones that profit most, with a rumoured £500,000 fee said to have been enough to secure his services.
How many players do Rangers have at the Euros this summer?
It’s a big conclusion to jump to but there is no way we could have been in for him, yes, we’ve maybe scouted him, but I’m pretty sure that if his agent had fielded any call from Ross Wilson, the prospect of playing Champions League football would have been significantly more appealing that Stoke City on a cold Tuesday night.
It’s another reminder that we shouldn’t believe every story that we see when we are connected to a player even if it may seem that there could be something in it, Rangers are pretty much a closed shop nowadays when it comes to rumours and a lot of what we read comes from either players’ agents or news agencies close to where potential targets play.
After Joseph Okumu moved to Gent last week, Gomes can now also have his name crossed out, who is going to be next…?
