Lewis Ferguson is expected to evaluate his Bologna future after the World Cup, keeping Rangers’ summer transfer interest alive as Derek McInnes reshapes his Ibrox squad.
The Scotland midfielder remains under contract with Bologna, but fresh reporting says his situation will be assessed once his international commitments are complete.
That matters because Ferguson fits several obvious Rangers needs at once.
He offers Scottish pedigree, Serie A authority, leadership experience and a family connection that would instantly make any pursuit one of the headline stories of the window.
Ferguson Would Be A Statement Rangers Target
Rangers have already entered a new phase under McInnes, and the next part of the rebuild is not simply about adding numbers.
It is about adding players who can carry the pressure of Ibrox quickly.
Ferguson would tick that box more naturally than most.
He came through the Rangers academy before building his senior career at Hamilton, Aberdeen and Bologna, where he has grown into a high-level midfielder and captain.
That pathway gives the story more weight than a routine transfer link.
ReadRangers has already looked at why Derek McInnes’ first Rangers rebuild needs speed, standards and authority, and Ferguson would fit that exact type of statement shift.
The obstacle is obvious.
A player with Ferguson’s status in Italy will not be straightforward or cheap, and Rangers cannot treat the link as a simple homecoming.
But if McInnes wants a signing that changes the tone of the summer, Ferguson’s post-World Cup decision is now one to watch closely.
