Rangers Striker Targets: Turgeman, Frigan & Sima in the Mix
With Hamza Igamane on the verge of joining Lille, new Rangers manager Russell Martin and the Ibrox board are wasting no time in identifying possible replacements. According to reports, the shortlist includes three dynamic forwards: Dor Turgeman, Matija Frigan, and a possible loan return for Abdallah Sima.
Each offers a different profile — and each could bring something crucial to Rangers’ evolving frontline.
Dor Turgeman – £3m–£4m | 13 G/A Last Season
Age: 21
Club: Maccabi Tel Aviv
2023–24 stats: 10 goals, 3 assists in 38 appearances (all comps)
Turgeman burst onto the European radar with standout performances in the U20 World Cup and has since become a regular for Israel’s senior national team. His pace, close control and ability to take on defenders make him a constant threat.
He produced 13 goal contributions in all competitions last season and averaged 1.4 key passes per 90, according to FotMob. With Rangers linked in several reports, a £3m–£4m fee could be enough to secure his services.
Matija Frigan – £5m–£6m | 15 G/A Last Season
Age: 22
Club: Westerlo
2023–24 stats: 11 goals, 4 assists in 35 appearances (all comps)
Frigan offers a more physical, hold-up style of centre-forward play — and he’s got an eye for goal. After scoring 14 goals in the Croatian top flight the season before, he adapted well in Belgium, racking up 15 goal contributions for Westerlo.
The Croatian U21 international is strong in the air, intelligent in his movement and thrives in structured attacking setups — making him a smart fit for Martin’s system. Expect a fee of around £5m–£6m to be needed.
Abdallah Sima – Loan Option | 12 G/A at Brest
Age: 23
Club: Brighton (loaned to Brest in 2023–24)
2023–24 stats: 9 goals, 3 assists in 33 appearances (Ligue 1)
Sima enjoyed a solid season in Ligue 1 with Stade Brestois, helping them in the Champions League. His 9 goals and 3 assists in France’s top division underline his ability to impact games even from wide positions.
Although Sima recently signed a contract extension at Brighton, the Seagulls could still be open to another loan deal — and Rangers would be near the front of the queue, having had success with him in 2022–23.
Final Thoughts
With Igamane set to leave, these Rangers striker targets represent three very different but equally exciting options. Turgeman brings flair and youth, Frigan offers a complete striker profile, and Sima brings power, familiarity, and proven experience at a high level.
Russell Martin’s rebuild is taking shape — and the next striker through the doors at Ibrox could be a statement signing.
