Nice have dropped a massive hint that a £10million move for Glen Kamara is on.
The Rangers midfielder apparently trained with Giovanni van Bornckhorst ’s squad earlier today amid interest from the Ligue 1 club. The Finland international has been linked with a number of potential suitors over the summer but the Scottish Cup winners had been keen to hold on to the former Dundee man, signed for £50,000 under Steven Gerrard in 2019.
However, things appear to be moving quickly with the player’s agents reportedly in France trying to thrash out a deal. Losing the midfielder on deadline day would be less than ideal ahead of Rangers kicking off their Champions League group stage campaign next week, but the profit they would make on the deal should Nice be stumping up £10million may make it an offer too good to turn down. The Light Blues had been linked with a move for English free agent Ross Barkley, but Sky Sports now report that no more new faces are expected to arrive.
And Nice’s official website offers a big clue as to how close they are to landing Kamara. The French club appear to have created a player profile for the 26-year-old, suggesting they fully expect the deal to be done before tonight’s deadline.
Kamara signed a new contract in Govan last September, which isn't due to expire until the summer of 2024. However, Kamara has found himself in and out of the team under Van Bronckhorst this season, playing in just two of their opening Premiership fixtures.
And now he could be set for a reunion with former teammate Aaron Ramsey. The Welsh star joined Rangers in a sensational deadline day loan from Juventus last January. However, indifferent form and injury meant he was unable to make the impact expected of him at Ibrox. HIs Juve contract was terminated by mutual consent earlier this summer before Nice snapped him up.
