Rangers target Ipswich Town centre-back Cameron Burgess
Rangers target Ipswich Town centre-back Cameron Burgess - Report (Image Source: Getty Images) Rangers Football Club is considering signing Cameron Burgess in the summer to boost their defence before the 2025/26 season. His contract with Ipswich Town expires after this season, and as a result of his impressive showing in the Premier League , the Rangers are now interested in him. Since Burgess moved to Australia from Aberdeen as a young boy, he can join Rangers as a free agent and bring valuable experience to the team. After Ipswich returned to the Championship, the centre-back continued to play in the Premier League, making 19 appearances. Rangers' defensive rebuild takes shape as Scottish-born Socceroo enters radar According to various reliable sources, Rangers feel that Burgess would be a good addition to Scottish football and are eager to add him to their squad as they challenge Celtic for the league title next season. The new defender might be chosen ahead of Clinton Nsiala for a starting spot, as Robin Propper, who came from FC Twente over the summer, has not adapted well to life at the club. Being part of the Ipswich Town squad under Kieran McKenna, Cameron Burgess has helped the team climb two leagues. His family's history in Scottish football is strong – his father, Stuart, played in the top division for Falkirk, and his grandfather, Campbell Forsyth, appeared for Scotland four times as a goalkeeper. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like "비염,축농증" 쭉 뽑아낸 비법 록키엄마지혜 더 읽기 Undo World Cup qualifiers and managerial uncertainty could impact the transfer timeline Cameron Burgess is set to play for Australia in World Cup qualifiers against Japan and Saudi Arabia in July, which may mean any transfer plans are put on hold.

Rangers ‘interested in signing English Premier League defender who is out of contract this summer'
RANGERS are reportedly interested in signing an English Premier League defender on a free transfer this summer. A new manager is the priority for Rangers at this moment of time but scouts have been working down a shortlist of players in the meantime to improve the side for whoever takes the reigns next season. 1 Cameron Burgess of Ipswich Town is being eyed by the Light Blues Credit: Getty We already told you how Rangers are eying up midfielder Metinho, who has been dubbed the Brazilian Paul Pogba. The Ibrox recruitment team have been looking at players across several positions and one particular area they've been focusing on is defence. And one of the targets being assessed is Ipswich centre-back Cameron Burgess, according to the Rangers Review. Burgess, 29, has earned back-to-back promotions under Kieran McKenna and made 19 aappearances in the top flight this season. The Tractor Boys have been relegated to the Championship and Burgess' future remains unclear with his contract almost up. Burgess was born in Scotland but emigrated to Australia with his family when he was 11 and opted to represent the Socceroos on the international stage. The left-sided defender is being eyed with the aim of competing with Clinton Nsiala for the starting berth, with the report suggesting Robin Propper could be on his way out of Ibrox. The Dutchman only joined the club from FC Twente last summer but has struggled to adapt to Scottish football - despite netting against Celtic in the New Year Old Firm derby. It's stated that it's likely the veteran will be put up for sale and could join out-of-contract Leon Balogun out the door. The Nigerian remains hopeful he will stay at Ibrox for at least another season. Ex-Rangers star Greg Docherty sends message to his dad following Charlton Play-Off semi-final victory Discussing his future at the club this week, he said: 'I'm very blessed that from a young age my father taught me the value of patience. 'So I'm just going to have patience as always, as I've had all my life. 'Then I just have to see what's happening. It's hard to say because it's not in my control. 'They're on the search for a manager and that's not my business really. 'Without trying to sound arrogant, age is nothing but a number. 'I've looked after myself throughout my whole career pretty well, I'd like to think, which is the reason why I can still perform at this level. 'If felt that I was starting to really struggle, I would admit it, but I absolutely do not feel that way. 'I felt even at times this season and even last season I trained more than ever.'

Socceroos prepared for Chinese onslaught
The Socceroos are bracing themselves for another early onslaught, this time from a desperate China, whose hopes of a guaranteed spot in next year's FIFA World Cup are on the line in Hangzhou on Tuesday night. If the hosts lose to the Socceroos, their chance of a top-two finish in Group C in the third round of AFC qualifiers will be gone and so will a certain World Cup berth. A Socceroos win will also harm China's chances of a third or fourth-place Group C finish, which would give them another chance to qualify. 'They're going to be coming out swinging,' Socceroos defender Cameron Burgess said on Monday. 'They're playing at home in front of a big crowd as well, so I've got no illusions it's going to be a difficult task for us, but we need to stamp our authority on the game and do what we can do to hurt them as well.' The Socceroos struggled to cope with an early blitz from Indonesia last Thursday in Sydney. Despite winning 5-1, the Australians would have been down 2-0 inside 10 minutes if not for a brilliant save from captain and goalkeeper Mat Ryan and the woodwork keeping out a penalty from Indonesia's Kevin Diks. 'Just settling into the game and the conditions in terms of the pitch and how they were playing … we probably just took a little bit longer than we should have,' Burgess said. 'We're expecting a fast start (from China), the same as the other night, so we have improvements to make on that, and hopefully we can start the game better than we did the other night. 'We're ready for what they're going to bring.' The Socceroos – who are second in Group C and a point ahead of third-placed Saudi Arabia – can take another step towards World Cup qualification with a win on Tuesday night. 'We don't want to go away from what we're trying to improve on, what we're trying to be better at (and the) improvements we're making as a team, but equally, every game is important. It doesn't matter who we're playing against or what stage it is – we are where we are,' Burgess said. 'This game was not even in my mind, not even thought about, until we'd finished the last game. 'The last game was the most important game I've ever played in. They're all so important, and we're treating it as such. 'There are times to be relaxed and calm and clear with what we're doing in the moment and on the pitch but at the same time recognising the importance of the game itself.' 🧵 3/3 — Subway Socceroos (@Socceroos) March 24, 2025 Despite a lack of first-team football at his English Premier League club Ipswich Town, Burgess – who in the absence of injured star Harry Souttar has a greater responsibility in Australia's backline – felt prepared for Tuesday night's battle. 'It's not great not playing. I'd love to be playing every minute of every game, as would everyone; however, the one upside is how hard we train (at Ipswich),' he said. 'I've experienced that in the past, where maybe not playing for a number of games and then been thrown in for a big game and been fine because we trained to a high level, and you're prepared to be ready to play when you get the chance.'
