<\/p>\nIt’s understood the free-scoring Hansa Rostock striker would jump at the chance for a move to the Premiership title chasers<\/p>\n
Hansa Rostock’s Ryan Naderi<\/p>\n
Impressed Barry Ferguson<\/a> reckons Rangers target Ryan Naderi is the real deal after swotting up on the man identified to fire the Ibrox side to title glory.<\/p>\n It’s understood the free-scoring Hansa Rostock striker would jump at the chance for a move to the Premiership side<\/a> after turning heads in the third tier of German football.<\/p>\n Rostock are reluctant to sell Naderi as they push for promotion but the \u00a32.6million-rated forward is attracting admiring glances from across the continent.<\/p>\n And Ferguson admits he’s done some digging on the 22-year-old forward and has faith in Danny Rohl<\/a> if they pull the trigger on the rising star.<\/p>\n Speaking on Hotline LIVE, the Rangers icon said: \u201c I\u2019ve done my research and he\u2019s highly regarded. He\u2019s German, and we all know where the manager is from.<\/p>\n \u201cRohl knows people in Germany, so if Rangers are willing to spend \u00a32.6m, then I trust his judgement.<\/p>\n \u201cIt would be ideal for Rangers to get another forward in. They need to keep it fresh up top, and it would ease the workload off [Youssef] Chermiti and [Bojan] Miovski.\u201d<\/p>\n But Rangers are set to be met with resistance as Rostock chief Amir Shapourzadeh admits they are keen to keep hold of their best player.<\/p>\n Shapourzadeh told Ostsee Zeitung<\/a>: “No one is unsellable in football, but we want to get the maximum sporting result from the season. And we don’t want to jeopardise our goals.”<\/p>\n Asked how the player feels about the club’s stance, he added: “Ryan handles it very professionally. He’s very mature for his age \u2013 an intelligent young man who thinks things through a lot and with whom you can have good conversations.”<\/p>\n Tune in to Hotline Live<\/a> every Sunday to Thursday and have your say on the biggest issues in Scottish football and listen to Record Sport’s newest podcast, Game On<\/a>, every Friday for your sporting fix, all in bitesize chunks.<\/p>\n You can get all the news you need on our dedicated Rangers<\/a> and Celtic<\/a> pages, and sign up to our newsletters<\/a> to make sure you never miss a beat throughout the season.
