Rangers paid €8.6m for Youssef Chermiti. Against the club's own history of paying for forwards, that is the 1st largest such fee on record.
| Player | From | Fee | Season |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ryan Kent | Liverpool | €7.2m | 2019/20 |
| Danilo | Feyenoord | €6.3m | 2023/24 |
| Ryan Naderi | Hansa Rostock | €5.5m | 2025/26 |
| Kemar Roofe | RSC Anderlecht | €5.0m | 2020/21 |
| Cyriel Dessers | Cremonese | €5.0m | 2023/24 |
| Oliver Antman | Go Ahead Eagles | €4.4m | 2025/26 |
A club's own precedent is the only fair yardstick for whether a fee is a departure for it. A number that looks enormous league-wide can be routine for one buyer, and a modest one can be a record for another.
