Michael Beale admits Rangers cancelled transfer as potential incoming star deemed 'poor fit' for club

Michael Beale has admitted that he turned DOWN a Rangers transfer target this summer - because he 'didn't fit in' to the club's ethos ahead of a potential move.

The Gers have signed six players so far this summer, with three attackers, a midfielder, a defender and a goalkeeper on the agenda so far. More are expected with Jose Cifuentes likely to make the switch across the pond from Los Angeles FC in the coming weeks, and even then Beale may not be done in his recruitment aspirations.

But whilst the club have been immensely proactive in recent weeks - something Beale is admittedly 'delighted' with - there is always room for some signings to flop, or even veto before they arrive ahead of a Scottish Premiership push. And that is exactly what has happened to Rangers already this transfer window - with the Light Blues boss admitting that he passed on the chance to sign one player despite terms being agreed with his club over a possible switch, whilst admitting the player in question had bundles of talent.
