“Went to wrong place” – Player’s decision to join Rangers criticised, urged to leave Philippe Clement’s side

Rangers’ Rıdvan Yılmaz arrived at Ibrox from Beşiktaş in 2022 and has featured regularly for Philippe Clement’s side since then. He’s made 17 appearances this season, managing two goals and an assist in the process.

The left-back’s decision to leave the Black Eagles for Rangers has been criticised by Hull City president Acun Ilıcalı. He’s been speaking to Beyaz TV’s Beyaz Futbol, relayed by Cumhuriyet, on various topics, including the 22-year-old.

Galatasaray are keen on taking the defender away from Philippe Clement’s side in the winter market.

Earlier today, Fanatik reported the Istanbul club have made an improved offer of €3.5m, while Rangers are demanding €4.5m to sanction the fullback’s sale. It was also stated Galatasaray won’t increase their offer for the Turkey international.

Even though there’s still a €1m difference, the Hull City official has urged his compatriot to leave Rangers for Galatasaray in this window.

“Rıdvan Yılmaz went to the wrong place. He needs to make an urgent comeback, such returns are effective. The Galatasaray management knows best, but he can do good work in the Turkish quota,” he said.

As well as the Rangers man, Fanatik reported Galatasaray have Sevilla’s Marcos Acuña as another left-back target.
