Kwame Poku Set for Ibrox Switch as Rangers Expected to Seal Deal
Rangers to Land Electric 20 G/A Winger in Free Transfer Heist
Glasgow Rangers are on the verge of pulling off one of the steals of the summer, with Kwame Poku expected to join the club on a free transfer from Peterborough United.
The 22-year-old winger, who posted an impressive 11 goals and 9 assists last season, has drawn interest from several clubs — including Birmingham City — but it’s Rangers who are now in pole position.
The Kwame Poku transfer would bring serious attacking firepower to Russell Martin’s new-look Rangers side, adding a direct and dynamic threat to the wide areas.
📲 Transfer Tweet Confirms Interest
Darren Witcoop of TEAMtalk broke the story saying: “Kwame Poku has been on the radar of many clubs with Birmingham among those pushing but Glasgow Rangers now expected to sign the Peterborough winger on a free.”

Why Poku Fits the Bill
According to FotMob, Poku delivered:
- 🟢 11 goals, 9 assists in all competitions
- ⚡️ 2.1 successful dribbles per game
- 🎯 1.8 key passes per match
- ✅ 83% pass accuracy in attacking areas
He’s not just a stat-padder. Poku has genuine end product and flair — and he’s still just 22.
If Rangers can close this deal, it’ll be one of the smartest free-agent moves of the summer window.
Černý’s Exit Opens the Door
With Václav Černý returning to Wolfsburg after his loan spell, Rangers chose not to meet the €9 million valuation for a permanent deal. That leaves a natural vacancy on the right wing — and Poku, who can play on either flank, looks a tailor-made replacement.
Černý impressed in flashes, but a player like Poku with proven consistency and similar goal contributions may offer even more value — especially on a free.
Fans Should Be Buzzing
Rangers are targeting a 20 G/A winger without spending a penny on a fee. Poku has all the tools to thrive in Russell Martin’s setup and could form an exciting wide partnership with Sima, Matondo or Wright depending on form.
Deals like this don’t come around often — and if completed, it’s a serious statement of intent.
