Czech Republic winger Václav Černý, who is lower in the selection order at Besiktas, has been linked with domestic league rivals Trabzonspor, a club that tried to sign him 12 months ago. Rangers have also been considering the 28-year-old, who has scored 8 goals in 30 caps for his country, and the Ibrox club has explored the possibility of a deal. According to reports in Turkey from A Spor, Černý is not currently inclined to leave Istanbul. There is also additional interest from the Saudi Pro League. Černý, who has a current Transfermarkt market value of €7.00m, joined Besiktas in September 2025 and his contract runs until June 2028. Recent reports from July 2026 suggest Besiktas has an asking price of £10m. Rangers had a €6m offer rejected.
