WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Express Sport understands the Bosnian international is on the verge of agreeing a three-year deal.A breakthrough has been found after Pandza agreed to drop his initial demands by almost £2,000 a week.The out-of-contract Mechelen defender will take the cut in the short-term but will make up his money in the final year of his contract when Rangers are expected to return to the Scottish Premier League.Pandza agreed to drop his initial demands by almost £2,000 a weekThe news will be a relief to manager Ally McCoist, who has made Pandza his top defensive target.McCoist is, however, still hoping to add a goalkeeper to his squad.http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/416721/Boris-Pandza-drops-wage-demand-to-secure-Rangers-contract Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogzy 31,195 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Sounds promising, hope we get him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Good on him and also good on us for staying firm on what we think he's worth or can afford Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WadeWilson 4,670 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Nice one. Hopefully we can get both him and Mohsni in as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS 649 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I do hope we get both. Moshni has shown up very well, although Pandza is still an unknown quantity, particularly after his injury problems. Nevertheless, i think both will be real assets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlBear. 8,499 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Welcome this news as it seems to show a desire from Boris to play for the Worlds most successful Club.When do we start guessing how much the wages offered are £2,000 less than?

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 He looks ok from the clips we have seen but I don't think he is the sort of defender we are looking for .I thought he looked ok in the air but was lumping the ball forward all the time to no one. He also looked cumbersome . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeney 241 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Seemed Cribari was starting to play well along side Mohsni aswell, interesting to see what the pairing will be if we sign both Mohsni and Pandza. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterGriffen 2 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I do hope we get both. Moshni has shown up very well, although Pandza is still an unknown quantity, particularly after his injury problems. Nevertheless, i think both will be real assets.Do you think we will get Moshni with Cribari still pulling in £5-6k wages?I would like both but really can't see it.Disappointed as what I've read and seen he looks the part.

Frankie 505 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Looks like good news but I guess it will depend on what his actual salary is. If it's £4000 per week, then this is a good saving; if it's £12000 per week, it's not as impressive.You would like to think that for players without a huge pedigree arriving from clubs without a worldwide profile, we would be able to maintain an affordable outlook. Sure, we're currently further down the league spine than usual but that should only be temporary so if players want to play for Rangers then they should want to come irrespective of what we offer them.I'd hope Mather and the rest of the board are aggressive in what they offer as there's no shortage of good football players available.

GOAT 30,449 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 As long as this doesn't effect us signing Mohsni and doesn't cause us financial problems, I'll be a happy man. Potentially another 2 defenders on the cards, and one looks quality from what I've seen. He's made Cribiri look decent. Still need to offload a couple, Perry and Faure should be shown the door. Also, why do we need another goalkeeper? After this we need a right winger and we're sorted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBluebells 6,898 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Sounds good, hopefully his original demands weren't too high though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarkev 3,540 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Sounds good, hopefully his original demands weren't too high though.I can't imagine he would have been on a massive wage in Belgian football so unless he was chancing his arm I don't think his demands will have been far away from what the likes of law, daly etc are on....moshini should surely be priority number 1 still as we know what he can do and we know he fits in well with the squad, bringing in a forgeiner with no experience if British football is always a gamble, but especially at CB...
