Rangers are ready to make their move for Antonio Colak this summer but POAK are reportedly willing to hold out for big money this summer.
And Gio van Bronckhorst isn't the only boss showing interest in the 28-year-old with reports in Greece suggesting Fenerbahce will revive their interest after a failed move in January. Colak harangued Rangers in last season's Champions League qualifiers during a loan spell at Malmo and could find himself back at Ibrox before the transfer window closes. The showing caught the eye of the Turkish side but they had an offer turned down by POAK after the end of his successful loan in Sweden.
Record Sport revealed the 28-year-old is on van Bronckhorst's radar after his side finished last season with no recognised striker amid injuries to both Alfredo Morelos and Kemar Roofe, with Joe Aribo picking up the slack up front. Colak could provide the Ibrox boss with an additional option in attack with his club open to selling him after he failed to earn a regular starting spot following his return from Malmo.
Despite this, SportTime claim the club will bide their time this summer as they look to recoup a just over £2million from a sale. Having signed from Rijeka in 2020 for €3million, sporting director Jose Boto wants to recoup most of that fee with it being noted that the club are unlikely to sell if they cannot break even. The report acknowledges the loan fee paid by Malmo to take the player to Sweden will also factor into the final sums.
And while Rangers may be keen on a deal, it appears that Turkish giants Fenerbahce will make their move. Sport 24 report they are ready to make their move for a permanent transfer, and will allow Dimitris Pelkas to return to PAOK on loan for the season as part of the deal.
Van Bronckhorst will be weighing up his attacking options this summer with Morelos approaching the end final year of his Ibrox contract. Cedric Itten has already left the club this summer having failed to make his mark under the Dutchman, with Roofe and Fashion Sakala the remaining striking alternatives.
