The world of football is a dynamic and ever-changing landscape, where the ebb and flow of player transfers can shape the destiny of clubs and captivate the imagination of fans. As the summer transfer window gains momentum, the football world is abuzz with rumors of blockbuster deals, and one player at the center of attention is Josh Windass. With his impressive track record and goal-scoring prowess, Windass has become a tantalizing prospect for top clubs, and Rangers are reportedly considering a sensational move to bring him back to Ibrox.
The transfer market is a complex and multifaceted arena, where clubs must navigate the intricacies of player valuation, negotiate transfer fees, and balance squad dynamics. As the stakes are high, and the drama is set to unfold in the coming weeks, fans will be eagerly anticipating the outcome of Windass’s transfer saga. With several top clubs vying for his signature, the question on everyone’s mind is: where will Windass’s journey take him next? Will he return to the familiar surroundings of Ibrox, or will another club swoop in to sign him?
Windass, now 31, joined Rangers from Accrington Stanley in July 2016 ahead of the Light Blues’ return to top division football. He went on to score 13 goals in 55 Scottish Premiership appearances, with 18 in all competitions in his second season at Ibrox. Since 2020, he’s plied his trade with Sheffield Wednesday, becoming the club’s top goalscorer this century. Windass has scored 13 league goals last season, his best return since his time at Ibrox.
The crisis at Wednesday has worsened in recent weeks, with players still waiting to be paid. Several players are understood to have given a notice period as they wait for their wages. Rangers are among the clubs considering a move to sign Windass, with the Light Blues labelled ‘admirers’ of their former player. Championship new boys Wrexham are also interested, while Coventry, Derby, and Norwich are among the other clubs who could swoop.
A sensational return to Rangers could see Windass become one of two Sheffield Wednesday players to head to Ibrox this summer. The Gers are closing in on a deal to sign £2.5million-rated winger Djeidi Gassama, who was Wednesday’s player of the year last season. With Rangers boss Russell Martin opening up on transfer plans, the stage is set for a thrilling transfer saga. Will Windass return to Rangers, or will another club swoop in to sign him? The transfer window is about to get a lot more interesting.
