Beşiktaş has renewed its interest in Rangers midfielder Nicolas Raskin as the January transfer window approaches. This marks the fourth time the Turkish club has attempted to secure the 25-year-old Belgian international, who has become integral to Rangers since joining from Standard Liège in January 2023. Raskin had previously been close to a move late in the summer window before opting to stay and playing a full match against Falkirk. The talks are expected to resume with a reported €15m valuation placed on Raskin, whose contract runs until 2028. Rangers manager Derek McInnes is urged to retain Raskin unless a substantial offer is made, as replacing him midseason could prove difficult.
