What Antonio Colak would really bring to Rangers as Gio van Bronckhorst comments hint striker fits transfer bill

Rangers' transfer window could be about to come to life in the shape of a man who haunted Ibrox last season. It's understood the club are interested in a move for PAOK striker Antonio Colak as Giovanni van Bronckhorst looks to bolster his attacking options.

Colak scored twice for Malmo in summer 2021 as the Swedes dumped Rangers out of Champions League qualifying but he's since returned to parent club PAOK after a loan spell with the Swedes. Reports from Greece claim an opening offer for the 26-year-old has been rejected and although a second approach is not imminent, he remains of interest to Van Bronckhorst, we can confirm.

PAOK appear keen to either sell or loan out Colak and their manager – former Romania boss Razvan Lucescu and son of veteran boss Mircea – has underlined why he rates Colak so highly. He said: "Antonio gives 150 per cent to training and to games. It makes no difference to him whether he starts or comes on as a sub, his workrate is the same. He is one of the most hard-working players I have ever been involved with. I have only good things to say about him.
