Derek McInnes’s side have already brought in a host of new additions in the summer transfer window, which is no surprise after their disappointing 2025/2026 season.
If Rangers want to catch up with their rivals Celtic and snatch away the Scottish Premiership title, then it always had to be a busy summer.
Reports recently emerged that the Scottish Premiership side were interested in the Belgian international, but they’ve now made their first move to try to secure his signature.
Siquet has attracted the interest of several European clubs, but Rangers are determined to get ahead of the competition to bring him in this summer.
Rangers are in the market to sign a new right back after James Tavernier left the club following the expiration of his contract.

Rangers going crazy in market
As mentioned, Rangers are trying to make a serious dent in the market during the summer transfer window.
McInnes’s side have already made a host of new additions, but they are still pushing to bring in more players over the coming weeks and months. Their confirmed additions are as follows:
Ivor Pandur
Vanja Dragojevic
Olwethu Makhanya
Daisuke Yokota
Ross McCrorie
Dan Neil
Lawrence Shankland
Cammy Devlin
Ben Godfrey
The Glasgow club acted fast to bring in a number of different loan signings and free agents and have now started to invest transfer fees to bring in more players.
There’s no doubt they needed multiple new additions. It’ll be interesting to see how much more they spend in the coming weeks.

Arsenal are weighing up a potential move to hijack Liverpool’s attempts to sign Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola in the summer transfer window.
The Gunners have been in the market to sign a new forward during the summer, with Vinicius Jr and Morgan Rogers key targets.
Unfortunately for Arsenal, they’ve missed out on both, with Vinicius signing a new deal at Real Madrid and Rogers joining Premier League rivals Chelsea.
The North London club likely remains in the market for a new winger, especially after Leandro Trossard left the club.
Signing a winger who’s capable of playing on either side would be hugely beneficial, but they’ll certainly want a starter on the left.
It’s claimed that PSG’s £145 million valuation of Barcola would be an issue for the Gunners, but they could pay up to £100 million to secure his signature.
The report suggests that Arsenal are now ready to rival Liverpool for Barcola, but it’s likely to be a long-drawn-out saga towards the end of the window.
Liverpool have been pushing hard to bring him to Anfield this summer, as they aim to add another winger following the departure of Mohamed Salah.
It’s already a competitive race for his signature, and Arsenal could be about to make things interesting.

Barcola might fancy Arsenal move

It would be interesting to discover whether Barcola would be interested in a move to the Emirates Stadium, but it would certainly make sense.
The French international, described as ‘elite’ by journalist James Pearce, is undoubtedly one of the best young wingers in world football. Moving to Arsenal could be an attractive prospect for him.
The Gunners have just won the Premier League title while also reaching the Champions League final.
There is also every chance that Barcola would arrive at Arsenal and instantly become a regular starter, so it’s a move that would make sense for both parties.
Every year, Fantasy Premier League captivates the world. It has over 10 million players, all of whom are desperate to claim the bragging rights over their friends. The rules in the game are relatively simple to understand; you gain points if the players in your team score in real life, whilst also accumulating points for assists, clean sheets, penalty saves and everything else in between.
It’s a highly tactical game as you analyse when is the best time to bring one of the world’s best players into your team of 15, although only 11 can play at one time. With a free transfer each week, people spend hours thinking about what they will do — and it’s all done in an attempt to avoid losing to their closest friends. Thousands of ‘mini-leagues’ are set up around the world, and friends typically agree that the person who comes last should complete a forfeit.
Due to this, we have come up with the nine funniest forfeits for fantasy players to consider. With the 2026/27 season quickly approaching, it’s now up to you and your friends to decide what the forfeit should be for the person who comes last. From horrifying haircuts to expensive bills, every possible idea has the potential to create life-long and entertaining memories.
It’s important to remember we’re not suggesting anything extreme — and definitely not anything risky; it’s purely ideas which could create lifelong and entertaining memories for you and your friends, even if the forfeit might be mentally painful at first.
15 Host an FPL night
We’re starting the list lightly with something that will get everyone involved. There’s a major break between the end of the last season and the new campaign, but you can fill that by organising an FPL night. During this, you can discuss plans for the new season and share any bold predictions you have.
It’s an opportunity to maybe embarrass yourself ahead of the upcoming campaign, but the disclaimer is that the person who finishes bottom has to host and pay for all of it. The bill could quickly add up in the modern day where absolutely everything seems to be expensive. Maybe the players who finished in the bottom three could also help out, so no one is put under major financial stress.
14 Complete an extreme fitness challenge
Moving on, making the FPL loser complete an extreme fitness challenge feels like an acceptable forfeit during the summer. We’re not suggesting that they run the length of Africa like the Hardest Geezer, and you don’t even have to do a marathon, but a physical punishment coupled with a sense of embarrassment might work perfectly. It could be a 5k walk through the middle of London in fancy dress, or they have to hold a sign stating ‘FPL Loser’ whilst they do it. The options are endless. Just make sure you don’t put your friend in serious physical distress.
13 Pay for the whole bill at a group dinner
Similar to the idea behind hosting an FPL night, making the loser pay for the whole bill at a group dinner feels like another possible, although very expensive, forfeit. Lots of people like to mark the end of the season with a meal or drinks, especially if your favourite club has just won one of the hardest competitions in the world.
That can only be made better if you don’t have to pay for it as well. If you’re in a big mini-league and don’t want the loser to be forced to remortgage his house to cover the cost, you can easily spread it out between people in your imaginary relegation zone — and maybe don’t order the most expensive item on the menu.
12 Perform at an open mic comedy
There’s mostly a sense of embarrassment with all of these options — and partaking in an open-microphone comedy club would epitomise that in a nutshell. Football fans always think they are the funniest people in the world, but most of the time, that’s not the case — and seeing one of your best mates attempt to perform at an event like this would be the perfect punishment for coming bottom.
If they were to do it, the unlucky manager would take to the stage, armed with a microphone and a mix of nerves and excitement. The audience would be a mix of league members and comedy enthusiasts, and they would likely all be unimpressed by a selection of uncreative and disappointing jokes. It would be one of the most frightening experiences around for the loser if he wasn’t comfortable, so it depends on how harsh you want to be with them.
11 Wear a Rival Jersey

Football fans are some of the most loyal people around. In their day-to-day life, Tottenham fans will religiously debate who is the best player in the club’s history, whilst Arsenal fans will often passionately argue that Mikel Arteta deserves a mention as one of the greatest Premier League managers of all time. You get the idea of it; they’re biased — and it only highlights how much they love their club. Therefore, the idea of a Tottenham fan walking around in an Arsenal shirt, or vice versa, is frightening.
People would spend hundreds, if not thousands, of pounds to avoid doing it, but that might not be an option if they finish bottom of the league. This idea would see them spend a full day in their rival’s home shirt, spending it doing activities in public with everyone. There’s a good chance they will be haunted for life, but that’s the brutality of finishing bottom of the FPL.
10 Forced to eat the world’s hottest chilli
The person who finishes bottom of the FPL mini-league clearly can’t handle the heat of the competition. Well, hopefully, they can handle spicy food instead. One of the most brutal yet entertaining options is to make the loser eat the world’s hottest chilli, commonly known as the Carolina Reaper.
It’s meant to be a horrible experience as it burns the back of your tongue, yet it is more than doable with a pint of milk and ice cream to help it go down. For added interest, you could have a sliding scale of Scoville units for the other worst-ranked finishers. The lower you finish, the hotter the chilli you eat at the end of the season.
9 Make a music video
In a similar idea to the comedy club, making the loser perform a music video in public would top off their embarrassment. The winner of the league gets to select any music video, so if they want to go for a classic 1970s hit, they can, and the loser must recreate to the best of their ability.
We’re not suggesting a five-star performance full of pyrotechnics, simply an embarrassing video which can then be used on social media forever. FA Cup finalists used to perform music videos before the match, and considering it’s the oldest competition in the world, you can channel that thought process and become a global superstar.
8 Get a woeful tattoo
When all the other options on this list are really only temporary, getting a tattoo goes above and beyond. Maybe this is the most extreme option unless you get a temporary one, of course, but there’s no doubt it would be memorable. To make it a more thoughtful experience, the loser can choose where it goes and the size, but what’s written is dependent on the winner. It could be their rival’s badge or a romantic love letter to that team; the options are endless. Everyone else in the league should also pay for the tattoo, so the misery is not compounded even more.
7 Get a terrible haircut
Finally, when you think of some of the greatest Brazilian players of all time, R9 Ronaldo also springs to mind. He had one of the worst haircuts of all time at the 2002 World Cup, which saw only the front of his head covered. He’s not the only one though, with Radja Nainggolan also world-famous for his iconic mohawk.
Due to this, the loser of the FPL league could be made to get an iconic, and maybe even horrible, haircut. The winner of the league gets to decide what it is, but they must pay for it. There’s no doubt it could end friendships, but hair can quickly grow back, so they would only have the hairstyle for a handful of weeks.
6 Season Review Press Conference

A great way of reflecting on a woeful fantasy campaign is to force your lowest-scoring player to address this with a recorded press conference. But this forfeit is all about the details.
The loser should be in a full suit, and made to sweat under the hostile questions of their fellow FPL competitors, who will pose as aggressive journalists. The loser must remain in character, offering comical tactical excuses for their shortcomings and rounding off the embarrassing season with a pre-prepared statement apologising to their players, fans, and family members for their incompetence. The video will be uploaded to YouTube and shared across all social media channels for maximum exposure.
