Jesurun Rak-Sakyi Rangers news amid potential transfer blow
That is, unless the Palace board get a move on in terms of bringing in fresh faces.
Rangers are keen on the England youth international.
It's believed they would like to strike an initial loan agreement, with a potential option to buy included.
The player is currently being treated for a knock having limped off during a friendly against Crawley Town recently. The extent of that injury has yet to be determined.
However, quotes have emerged from Glasner where he appeared frustrated at a lack of transfer dealings by the Premier League outfit.
He told Austrian newspaper Kronen Zeitung: 'Even though all the players are still here, we haven't made the most of the transfer window so far.
"I was promised that we would be more active and bring in the new players earlier this year.
'As of now, I have 17 outfield players. I hope we don't lose any more.
"If that happens and we get four new ones on deadline day like last year, another false start is possible.'

When asked about the reports last week, Martin told Sky Sports News: 'There's a lot of players we'll be linked with. Some wide of the mark, some very close and some spot-on.
'He's a player I liked at Southampton, we tried to take him there and it didn't quite happen.
"So, he's a player I like and I think he's a player the recruitment staff like. But, how far that's gone, I'm not too sure.
'He's a really good player. We look at all sorts of different profiles who we think can help the team. It doesn't necessarily have to be the one type of profile.
'Players are very different, we just need players with the right mentality that are desperate to come and play here. We will see where we end up in four weeks' time.'

Northern Ireland winger heads for Cyprus after being told he has no immediate future at Rangers
The Rangers star had been on the radar of teams across Europe and America. He made just four league starts last season, sparking speculation that he may move away from Ibrox despite having two years left on his contract. New manager Russell Martin has now allowed McCausland to link up with the Cypriot First Division side – and the deal also contains a conditional obligation to buy. The 22-year-old has made 64 senior appearances for Rangers. The former Linfield man, who has earned five caps for his country, missed June's doubleheader with Denmark and Iceland due to injury. The Scottish Premiership side stated: "Rangers can today confirm attacker Ross McCausland has joined Aris Limassol on-loan until the end of the season. The deal also contains a conditional obligation to buy. 'McCausland, who has 64 appearances and seven goals under his belt for Gers, heads to the Cypriot First Division side, who are also going through Conference League qualifying at present. He heads to Aris with the best wishes of everyone at the Rangers.' McCausland, who came through the Gers academy, will link up with ex-Ibrox pair Connor Goldson and Leon Balogun at Limassol. His move comes after Martin provided an update on departures at his press conference. The 39-year-old addressed the media ahead of his side's Scottish Premiership season-opener against Motherwell on Sunday. He said: "We have a fair few players who have interest in them who know that their career probably needs to move on to play football. "And we've still gone and done Mikey (Moore), we did (Djeidi) Gassama, there's been players that we've done. But obviously, by the end of the window, we definitely can't have them all in here. But I don't think it's a case of having to wait, we need them to go first." McCausland enjoyed a promising start to his Rangers career and established himself under ex-boss Philippe Clement, but he is now surplus to requirements under Martin.

The Portuguese forward died aged 28 last month in a car crash, alongside his brother Andre Silva, just weeks after helping Liverpool clinch Premier League title glory. Liverpool have retired the number 20 jersey worn by Jota in his five seasons at Anfield, three of them alongside Milner before the veteran England midfielder moved to Brighton in the summer of 2023. The lowdown on our new 25/26 numbers… 💬 — Brighton & Hove Albion (@OfficialBHAFC) August 1, 2025 With Carlos Baleba opting to have 17 on his back ahead of the 2025/26 campaign and vacating 20, Milner, who has been Brighton's number six, has swooped in to pay a touching tribute to Jota. 'Once I heard Carlos was looking to change his number and 20 was available, I wanted to do it as a mark of respect and pay tribute to Diogo Jota,' Milner said on the club's X channel. 'He was an amazing player who I was fortunate to play with and a great friend as well. 'It will be a great honour to wear his number in the Premier League this year.' Milner – whose contract was extended by Brighton in June for another season, which will take him past his 40th birthday – was among a number of Jota's former team-mates who attended his funeral in July.
