Michy Batshuayi Rangers transfer latest as Fenerbahce chief asks for ‘final decision’ seven years after first Gers link
MICHY BATSHUAYI has been given the green light to thrash out his own future amid transfer interest from Rangers.
SunSport broke the news last night that Ibrox gaffer Philippe Clement had scheduled talks with the talented 30-year-old Belgian international.
He has featured in 11 games so far this season for the Turkish league leaders, scoring three goals, ahead of tonight's clash with Konyaspor.
But he's tended to be used as a substitute, with the likes of Edin Dzeko, Dusan Tadic and Cengiz Under having the starting attacking spots sewn up.
And with speculation suggesting Fenerbahce could move for Manchester United star Anthony Martial, Batshuayi may feel it's time to move on
Turkish sides can register only ten non-Turkish players and field only six non-Turkish players on the pitch at the same time.

Koc told En Son Haber: "I have told him If you want to stay, there is a place for you in Fenerbahce.
"But if you are restless when you are on the bench, it will affect the team.
"Let us know your final decision as soon as possible."
