Glasgow Rangers On Sunday, its latest addition to the summer transfer window with the unveiling of the left back of the Jayden Meghoma loan.
The 19 -year -old defender, who spent time on loan to Preston North End last season, joined Brentford in order to make the left back position.
Brazilian back left Jefte would have closed On a movement of 6 million pounds sterling In Palmeiras, a year after its move to the Fluminense club, which will leave a vacant place in the starting program.
The 21 -year -old dynamo started 30 of its 33 appearances in the Scottish Première Last season, by Sofascore, which means that Meghoma could have a big role to play as a replacement.
European club planning discussions to sign the Rangers defender
Jefte may not be the only left back from Glasgow before the end of the summer transfer window, however, because a European team wishes to sign an Ibrox flop.
According to SporxThe Bestikas have identified the left back of the Rodvan Yilmaz Rangers as one of their main targets to strengthen their defense for the 2025/26 campaign.
The report says that the Turkish giants are planning to speak with the Gers this week to discuss a potential agreement to bring the international of Turkey to the club.
It remains to be seen if they want to make a loan or a permanent transfer for the great rear, but the light blues would have established a 5 million euros (4 million pounds sterling) For Yilmaz.
Why the Rangers should sell Ridvan Yilmaz
The Rangers should try to take the flop with the left foot in the coming talks with Besiktas because it is even worse than Jefte and should be moved in the coming days.
The turkey international did not do enough on the field in the premieres last season to prove that it is a better option than the Brazilian gem on the left back, which was reflected in its playing time, or its absence.
Yilmaz only played 17 times at the top, starting 11 of these games, and was not involved in a single match team in the 2025/26 campaign, by Sofascore, perhaps lack of quality in its performance under Philippe Clement and Barry Ferguson.

As you can see in the table above, Jefte has played almost twice as many games and has surpassed it considerably with its offensive and defensive contributions on the left back, which shows that the former Fluminense man offers much more to the team at both ends of the field.
The Brazilian defender also started four times in the current campaign, while Yilmaz did not play a single minute, and Max Aarons was used on the left back before the flop classified 4 million pounds sterling.
This shows that the 24 -year -old failure is not part of Russell MartinThe plans, as evidenced by the signature of Meghoma, and that is why the light blues should be comfortable to allow him to pass from Ibrox in the middle of this interest of Besiktas.
If they are willing to allow Jefte to go to sign for Palmeiras, they should also be willing to take advantage of a player who is even worse than he and is further in the hierarchical order at the moment, because he does not seem to be part of the long -term plans at Ibrox.
However, it is now in Besiktas to put an offer on the table which is attractive enough to convince the Rangers to Green-Light an outing for Yilmaz before the deadline at the beginning of next month.
