What happened
Rangers are in negotiations with Leicester City regarding a potential transfer for winger Stephy Mavididi. The 26-year-old French-born forward has been at Leicester since 2023 and previously played for Montpellier and Juventus U23s. Mavididi would add pace and width to Rangers' attacking options if the deal goes through. Details of the proposed transfer, including fee and contract length, have not yet been disclosed.
Chance analysis
Mavididi would provide Rangers with a proven Championship-level winger capable of playing across the front line. For Leicester, losing a squad player who is not central to their Premier League plans is manageable financially but could be part of a broader summer squad trim. The move is still at the talking stage, so reliability is limited, but Rangers have been active in the Scottish Premiership transfer market this window.
Potential attacking reinforcement for Rangers; marginal squad loss for Leicester City.
If Mavididi joins Rangers, expect a boost to their attacking width and depth ahead of the new Scottish Premiership season.
