Emmanuel Fernandez, a defender for Rangers, is the subject of interest from clubs in Europe. From the Premier League, Arsenal is reportedly the primary club interested. Chelsea are also interested, West Ham United have been linked, and Everton are monitoring him. In the Netherlands, Ajax and Feyenoord have been named as interested clubs. German clubs Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen have expressed admiration. It is also understood that the Belgian club Club Brugge is pursuing the player.

Rangers are reportedly expected to demand a minimum of £25m for Fernandez. Some sources have suggested a valuation for him of up to £35m. Fernandez has three years remaining on his contract. The club's asking price is also affected by a sell-on clause held by his former club, Peterborough United. Rangers' transfer model involves buying players for low fees and selling them for high fees, and the club is expected to accept an offer that meets their valuation. Manager Danny Rohl has a hope of keeping Fernandez but has also acknowledged that it would be difficult to turn down a significant offer from the Premier League. The player has made positive statements about his time at Rangers.
