A loan offer with an option to buy proposed by the Scottish top-flight league heavyweights for the English-born Ghanaian forward has been turned down by Crystal Palace.
English Premier League side Crystal Palace have rejected an offer from Rangers for the possible acquisition of Jesurun Rak-Sakyi in this summer transfer window.
The approach from the Scottish Premiership club was for an initial loan with a potential obligation to buy worth up to £10million.
The offer was rejected by Palace but Rangers’ pursuit of the 22-year-old remains ongoing and there is interest from elsewhere.
Rak-Sakyi came through the youth ranks at Chelsea before moving to Palace in 2019 and signing a first professional deal with the club back in 2021.
He has made 10 first-team appearances for Palace and spent last season on loan in the Championship with Sheffield United.
He played 36 times in all competitions, scoring seven goals, as Chris Wilder’s side missed out on promotion to the Premier League with defeat in the playoff final.
Capped at Under-20 and Under-21 level by England, Rak-Sakyi is also eligible to represent Ghana through his parents.
