Clement will be looking to add more players to his squad between now and the end of the winter window. With injuries plaguing the club, defenders are clearly a priority, could the Belgian also bring in a striker?
One name has been linked and there is no doubt that he could become Igagun’s dream opponent.
Rangers could sign Igamane rival this month
By the end of 2024, South African publication SNL24 Claims are that Ibrox are monitoring striker Ikram Reynas ahead of a possible move when the winter transfer window opens.
“Rangers have made an inquiry about Ikram (Reinas),” a source told SNL24. “I don’t think they’ve made an offer at this stage. All I know is that they’ve shown We are interested and will continue to monitor him.”
A lot will depend on Clement’s budget this month and whether he has to give up some boring work to free up space on the team.
Reynas is undoubtedly a late bloomer, but if he does move to Glasgow, the 29-year-old could compete with Igamane for a place in the starting XI, especially after a strong start to the season.

The South African hitman has been in hot form since moving to Mamelodi Sundowns last summer, Scored 13 goals Only 19 games were played in all competitions, with a goal every 1.46 games.
Hits like that won’t go unmissed at Ibrox, that’s for sure. The question is, should Reynas land his dream move this month, can he transfer the form he showed in his homeland to Scotland?

At home, Renas Averaged 1.7 shots per gamehe succeeded in 75% of his dribbling attempts and created a great opportunity. Perhaps more important is his calm nature in the opposition penalty area.
In fact, throughout the entire South African Premier League season, Reynas only missed one great opportunity, and his goal conversion rate is currently as high as 40%, which shows how outstanding his scoring performance this season is.
The striker is also in good form during international competitions. pass through South Africa ten games Reynas found the net four times during the year, two of which came in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers as South Africa remained unbeaten all season.
Following Igaman’s success in moving from Africa to Scotland in recent months, Clement hopes that success can be replicated at Reyna if he makes a permanent move to Rangers.
If so, the Gers could open up a new market and more players from Africa could soon be linked to the club, going on to shine and make huge profits before leaving.
