# Rangers: Danilho Doekhi responds to Gers’ interest

**Danilho Doekhi has hinted that he would seriously consider a move to Glasgow Rangers if the Gers were strongly interested in signing him.**

### **The Lowdown: Gers eye Doekhi**

The Light Blues have been heavily linked with a move for the Dutch centre-back ([Glasgow Live](https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/danilho-doekhi-to-offered-rangers-20467859)), who currently plays for Vitesse Arnhem in the Eredivisie.

However, the 55-time Scottish champions have not yet made a concrete move for the defender.

### **The Latest: Doekhi discusses future**

Speaking to De Gelderlander ([via The Daily Record](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/danilho-doekhi-breaks-rangers-transfer-24517449)), the 23-year-old revealed that he would be interested in a move to Ibrox.

When asked about the Rangers speculation, he said: “I can’t do anything with it now. All my business runs through my manager, but if something is serious, I will seriously think about it.”

### **The Verdict: Come-and-get-me plea**

This feels like a come-and-get-me plea of sorts. Of course, £2.7m-valued Doekhi ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/danilho-doekhi/marktwertverlauf/spieler/387047)) cannot fully say that he wants to join Rangers – he must keep things cordial with his current club for now – but his admission that he would be interested in a move to Ibrox has given the Gers hope.

It is now up to Ross Wilson and co to offer a deal which suits both the player and Vitesse. Doekhi missed just two league matches last term ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/danilho-doekhi/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/387047/plus/0/saison/2020/wettbewerb/NL1/verein/499)), so he is very much an important member of his team’s squad. If the Gers were to sign him, Gerrard would be hoping he could hold down a similarly consistent presence in the Scottish champions’ first XI.
