‘Quite naughty’ – Ferguson slams agent of Rangers player amid recent chatter

Hamza Igamane a Rare Highlight in Rangers’ Underwhelming Season

In what was a largely disappointing 2024/25 campaign for Rangers, Hamza Igamane stood out as a rare positive. The Moroccan international was named Young Player of the Season after scoring 11 goals in 29 Scottish Premiership appearances.

Though his form dipped towards the end of the season, Igamane remains a key asset the club would benefit from keeping as they look ahead to next season.

However, speculation surrounding his future continues to grow, with several clubs reportedly interested in securing his services once the summer transfer window opens. Premier League sides Everton and Newcastle United are among the suitors, along with interest from Serie A, LaLiga, and Ligue 1. French outfit Strasbourg are the latest club said to be monitoring the forward.

Transfer Rumours Surround Igamane

Amid ongoing transfer rumours, former Rangers midfielder Derek Ferguson has questioned whether the player’s agent might be driving the speculation. Speaking to Ibrox News, Ferguson said:

> “It sounds like it could be the agent. He didn’t get as much game time towards the end of the season, but he’s still a young lad settling into a new environment.
These are the players we should be building around. But yes, sometimes agents can influence players to move on—it’s part of the job, and not always for the best.”

Despite the uncertainty, Igamane is under contract until 2029, giving Rangers firm control over his immediate future.

Future Should Be Built Around Igamane

With question marks over several players in the current squad, Igamane represents the type of young, talented player Rangers should look to build around. At just 22, his prime years lie ahead, and he could eventually yield a significant profit for the club.

While reinforcements are certainly needed in the upcoming window, keeping key talents like Igamane and Nico Raskin will be just as vital to Rangers’ ambitions. Ideally, any potential sale of Igamane should be delayed by at least another season.
