Rangers were handed a boost last week with regards to signing last season loanee Abdallah Sima on a permanent basis – and now the forward has captured the imaginations of Gers fans with his latest social post.

The 23-year-old took to Instagram to share a highlights reel of his on-pitch exploits under Philippe Clement during the 2023/24 campaign, with a caption stating last season was “one to never forget” for the player.

This message was then followed by “more to come soon”, which has set tongues wagging among the Rangers support.

With a reported price tag of £8 million set by parent club Brighton, the Sussex Express wrote last week of how that figure may have since dropped – given the Senegalese forward is now entering the final year of his contract.

The on-loan forward has been a regular fixture whenever fit to appear under Philippe Clement. Having notched 15 goals before the winter break, Sima’s injury at AFCON undoubtedly impacted Rangers’ title push.

Sima was only back for a handful of games before picking up another knock in the Scottish Cup semi-final win over Hearts. That included a vital goal in Rangers’ 3-3 draw with Celtic in April.

The attacker’s agent has previously stated that Sima would be open to continuing his career at Ibrox. That will depend on Brighton, however. A club notoriously well-run in the transfer market are unlikely to sell their international forward on the cheap.
