Glasgow Rangers were beaten in their latest Scottish Premiership clash at Ibrox.
Rangers fans have expressed their desire to see Youssouf Mulumbu signed at the end of the season after his brilliant performance during the Gers’ defeat to Kilmarnock at Ibrox on Saturday.
Mulumbu joined Killie back in November and has turned out to be one of the signings of the season throughout the entire Scottish Premiership having quickly established himself as a hugely important player in Steve Clarke’s midfield.
Clarke remains undefeated against the Old Firm since taking over at Rugby Park and that run continued on Saturday as a Kris Boyd goal nine minutes into the second-half saw Killie beat Rangers 1-0 to make it back to back losses for Graeme Murty’s men.
One of the key reasons for the Gers’ loss was the home side’s inability to win the battle in the middle of the park, with Mulumbu coming out on top against Sean Goss and Greg Docherty in the first-half, and then against Jason Holt in the second after Goss had been replaced.
Not only were the Rangers fans impressed by the 31-year-old’s performance against their side on Saturday, but they now also want the midfielder to be signed at the end of the season.
Transfermarkt shows that Mulumbu’s deal with Killie only runs until the end of the campaign, so if Rangers did make a move – which they arguably should as he continues to impress – he could be brought in on a bargain deal if he chose to make the switch to Ibrox.
Here is the best of the reaction to Mulumbu’s display which has, understandably, led to calls for the midfielder to be targeted at the end of the season…
