Jose Cifuentes branded 'solid' Rangers transfer but expert fires Ibrox warning shot over stalled MLS progress

And that the current LAFC star, who has been linked with a move to Michael Beale's men for some time, would have no qualms over adapting his strong style to suit the Scottish Premiership.

Cifuentes could become Ibrox recruit number eight for the window after Leon Balogun sealed his big return to the club.

Record Sport revealed that a confirmation of his arrival in Glasgow could be some weeks away, but that Ibrox remains Cifuentes' number one intended destination.
