Rangers are in talks to sign Everton striker Youssef Chermiti on loan as manager Russell Martin looks to save his future, according to the Daily Mail.
The Rangers boss is under mounting pressure after the Ibrox club’s underwhelming start to 2025-26 reached its peak last night.
The Light Blues lost 6-0 to Club Brugge in the second-leg of the Champions League play-offs, but Martin has been told by his bosses that he will be in charge against Celtic on Sunday.
He is desperate to hold on to his job and Chermiti could be on his way to Rangers in a temporary deal.
The 21-year-old Portuguese striker is in search of regular playing opportunities having struggled for minutes since joining Everton in a £12.5 million deal from Sporting Lisbon in 2023.
Chermiti made 20 appearances in his debut campaign with the Premier League club but was restricted to four appearances last season.
The Portuguese youth international will fancy his chances of impressing in the Scottish Premiership, and Rangers could do with him when they take on the Hoops this weekend.
The Bears have bolstered their squad with the additions of Jayden Meghoma, Lyall Cameron, Djeidi Gassama, Thelo Aasgaard, Manny Fernandez, Nasser Djiga, Max Aarons, Mikey Moore, Joe Rothwell, Oliver Antman and Oscar Cortes this summer.
