Panathinaikos are making an effort to sign Rangers forward Cyriel Dessers before the end of the summer transfer window.
Dessers’s future with Rangers remains uncertain ahead of Monday’s deadline. Rangers manager Russell Martin has refused to give any assurance that the Nigeria international will stay at Ibrox beyond the window’s closure.
Earlier in the summer, the Light Blues rejected a €4.5 million bid from Panathinaikos’ rivals AEK Athens for the striker. Dessers reportedly agreed personal terms with the Yellow and Blacks.
Panathinaikos could tempt the former Feyenoord player with the prospect of Champions League football, which would be a significant lure. According to Record Sport, the Greens are determined to complete the signing before the deadline.
The 30-year-old was the top scorer in the Scottish Premiership last season with 18 goals.
