G.E.C. 19,116 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Rangers have given up on luring former defender Carlos Cuellar back to Ibrox from Aston Villa.The clubs agreed a fee of around £2m for the 29-year-old but concerns over the Spaniard's fitness have derailed the proposed transfer."We will not be making a move for him before the transfer window closes," director of football Gordon Smith told BBC Radio Scotland."The problem was we were waiting to see what his injury situation was."Didn't see him coming in all honesty. Hopefully the £2m can be used for the Hungarian and to get Bedoya. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimfanciesthedude 25,043 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 seems the injury isnt as clear cut as first thoughtconsidering the quickness that villa changed their stance on cuellar, then imo there was definitely something fishy in the deal Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CANUCKBEAR10 3 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 U's seriously think that will mean 2mil in extra money? Hahahaha, I wish! I doubt we will be going for Juhasz, it will be Wilson on loan. FRUSTRATED! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we will be going for Juhasz, it will be Wilson on loan. FRUSTRATED!Why would we not get the 2m from this deal?It was already out the budget of the hungarian guys deal. I would take wilson on loan & go for a striker Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritishBear 34 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Call me cynical, but I would be inclined to believe that we have got the green light for Wilson, so moneybags has decicided it's a better deal than actually paying for a player.

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Absolutely no suprise whatsoever, have been waiting for it to fall through for weeks tbh. Still need two centre halfs of quality with bids for the King and Juhacz(sp) finished i fully expect 2 alternatives of similar stature and quality to come in, and soon!We need to move on and quick.

GersAvA92 53 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Juhasz has to be back in the scene again, they rejected £2.6m but apparently another £200k would've done it...hope we see more from this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Not surprised and I'm not bothered at all. Carlos Cuellar is injured, we cannot afford to spend money on players who are not fit and available.Let's see how he comes back once fully fit, then if still available, healthy and on form, make a move for him.Now to focus on other players!
