Rangers have been linked with a move for IK Sirius ace Tashreeq Matthews but there are conflicting reports about a move.

We are already coming up to the midway point of the January transfer window and Rangers have just one signing on board.

Striker Fabio Silva has arrived on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers but Philippe Clement may still want more new faces.

Rangers fans would no doubt love to see another winger arrive and a fascinating rumour has emerged.

Reports in South Africa just a few days ago suggested that Rangers were battling AZ Alkmaar for IK Sirius winger Tashreeq Matthews.

Scottish reports indicate that Rangers aren’t chasing Matthews this month, but let’s take a deep dive into the South African and his career to date…

Tashreeq Matthews, the story so far

Matthews hails from Cape Town in South Africa and started his career with hometown club Ajax Cape Town.

Yet rather than move on to affiliate club Ajax – like Eyong Enoh, Steven Pienaar and Thulani Serero in years gone by – Matthews was snapped up by German giants Borussia Dortmund in 2018 without even playing a first-team game in South Africa.
