Today's Western Mail reports that Rangers are to oush again for Glen Loovens with a straight £2.5M bid, the same price they paid Watford last week for their centre-half Boughera.
The background to this is explained in a blog post yesterday below http://nigelblues.blogspot.com/2008/08/with-aaron-ramsey-transfer-saga-long.html
The offer is below the £3M trigger fee City want to start talks but with the transfer window shutting in 18 days and Loovens able to walk away for nothign next summer, such a bid would seriously test Peter Ridsdale and Dave Jones.
I'd hate Glen to leave and hope it sorts itself out but he is refusing to sign a new deal, even one with release clauses, which is a problem. He also look affected last weekend with his personal performance against Southampton.
The questions are, if he goes, can City bring in a suitable replacement immediately ... and will this money be ploughed back into team investment?
