# Rangers: Sky Sports journalist reveals Calvin Bassey exit news

**Sky Sports journalist Rob Dorsett has now revealed some worrying [Glasgow Rangers](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/) transfer news from Ibrox.**

### The Lowdown: Possible departures

Aside from the players that are going [out of contract](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glasgow-rangers/vertragsende/verein/124#:~:text=%20%20%20%20player%20%20%20,1%2C%201985%20%2837%29%20%202%20more%20rows%20) this summer, the Teddy Bears could also see departures for some of their key players as Premier League clubs circle the young stars at Ibrox.

The likes of Calvin Bassey and Ryan Kent have been [linked](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/leeds-transfer-news-kent-everton-spfl/) with moves to the English top flight for big money, and so it may be difficult to keep them if big offers start to roll in.

### The Latest: Dorsett update

Taking to Twitter, [Dorsett](https://twitter.com/RobDorsettSky/status/1529907600954990593) has revealed that Aston Villa are just one of a number of clubs in the English top flight that have now made ‘enquiries’ over signing Bassey, with the Light Blues valuing him at over £25m:

*“#avfc aren’t done yet, after stunning start to window, despite already committing £43m to 3 new signings.*

*“Understand Villa are among a number of PL clubs who’ve made enquiries about defender Calvin Bassey – who #rangersfc value at £25m+.”*

### The Verdict: Worrying

It is certainly worrying to hear the amount of Premier League teams circulating around Bassey, especially Villa.

As Dorsett mentions, they have already signed three players for a combined £43m so early on in the window, which suggests that they could hold no qualms splashing the cash to wrap up another quick deal for the 22-year-old.

Nonetheless, Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side need to stay strong with their valuation, which would be a [club-record](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glasgow-rangers/rekordabgaenge/verein/124) sale, and not sell Bassey for a penny less.

Of course, the Dutchman will be hoping to keep hold of him anyway, ahead of what looks to be another busy season with added European football.
