Lewis Ferguson can completely change the perspective around Rangers if he signs from Bologna.
The Gers have seen Celtic climb to the top of the mountain over the last two decades, leaving them in a bit of a slump.
While the Light Blues found league success under Steven Gerrard, their name arguably doesn't carry the weight it once did.
Ferguson could be the catalyst for turning back time at Ibrox and bringing back the good old days.
The signing of the Scotland international in Govan would certainly signal a shift in power in Glasgow.
Not only would the 26-year-old help change the narrative on the field, but he could also be pivotal off it, sending a warning to every domestic rival and strengthening the Gers' connection with their fanbase.
Rangers can send powerful transfer signal after Lewis Ferguson deal
Not only would Ferguson's arrival at the Gers immediately raise the quality and standards within their squad, but it would also be a positive signal to other prospective signings.
The Scottish superstar's reunion with DerekMcInnes would surely send a signal to other quality players that the Light Blues mean business.
Players who would previously potentially be put off by the prospect of moving to Ibrox will undoubtedly be encouraged by their ambition.
Ferguson could help attract stars of his calibre to the Govan side, which will be terrifying for Celtic and Hearts.
For starters, the midfielder has worked under McInnes at Aberdeen, where he made a name for himself, and he wouldn't have to get used to the Scottish manager's tactics.
Another crucial aspect is the Scottish star's leadership, with the Gers in need of a new captain after James Tavernier's departure, while his elite Serie A experience proves his abilities.
There would also be plenty of fanfare around Ferguson's move to Ibrox, which should give the Glaswegian outfit a commercial boost with likely high shirt sales and if he lives up to expectations in Govan, there would still be a high resale value on him.
