Rangers missed out on signing Auston Trusty and the defender’s season with Sheffield United is going from bad to worse.
Rangers were linked with a number of centre backs over the summer but few expected Leon Balogun to be the man coming in.
The Nigerian returned to Ibrox in a reunion with Michael Beale, offering an experienced option at the back.
The move did feel like something of a disappointment though, especially after rumours surrounding a deal for Auston Trusty.
Trusty had excelled on loan at Birmingham City and Arsenal seemed ready to cash in.
Rangers were thought to be keen on a £2million move but he ended up completing a £5million move to Sheffield United instead.
Well, less than a year on, we would forgive Trusty for wishing that he had joined Rangers.
Trusty’s Sheffield United side are seven points adrift of safety and keep losing heavily.
