Rangers gaffer Ally McCoist has confirmed his interest in Real Valladolid forward Javi Guerra. McCoist told the Daily Record that the Gers were weighing up an offer for the £2m rated Guerra, who currently plies his trade in the Spanish second division.
The Gers were recently linked with a move for another Spanish hitman, Francisco Sandaza, who plays for St.Johnstone. However nothing concrete in that regard has materialised yet due to the financial uncertainty at Ibrox Park.
Guerra has an impressive strike rate for Valladolid, netting 34 times in 55 appearances for them, and the Segunda Division outfit have impressed upon Rangers the need for a “solid” offer should they want to take the club’s prize asset up north to Glasgow.
A lot of Rangers’ chances of signing Guerra are said to be hinging on the potential sale of Nikica Jelavic before the window closes.
