Headline: AC Monza and Parma Make €7m Bid for Rangers’ Djeidi Gassama
AC Monza and Parma Calcio have reportedly submitted a bid to Rangers for winger Djeidi Gassama, age 22, according to the French media outlet Foot Mercato.
The Scottish club’s board has deemed the offers of €7 million unsatisfactory, as they expect a higher amount to consider parting with the winger, whose contract extends until 2029. Gassama joined Rangers last summer from Sheffield Wednesday for €2.4 million and had previously attracted interest in January when AS Monaco made a loan offer, but he remained with the team as management had plans for him.
In the last season alone, Gassama made 56 appearances for Rangers, scoring nine goals and providing six assists across all competitions. The Mauritanian international, who has three caps for his country, developed his skills at the Paris Saint-Germain academy before moving to England, where his time at Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship proved fruitful.

Offers of €7m have been deemed insufficient by the Scottish club’s board, which is expecting more before agreeing to let the winger – whose contract runs until 2029 – leave. Signed last summer from Sheffield Wednesday for €2.4m, Gassama had already been the subject of a loan offer from AS Monaco in January, but ultimately remained in Glasgow, where the club’s management were counting on him.

Having made 56 appearances for the Gers last season, the Mauritanian international – who has three caps – stood out by scoring nine goals and providing six assists across all competitions.
Having come through the Paris Saint-Germain academy, Gassama never really had the opportunity to prove his worth there and decided to leave France for England, where his spell at Sheffield in the Championship proved successful.
