Rangers are making waves in the transfer market as they set their sights on Sunderland's rising star, Finn Geragusian. According to reports from the Sunderland Echo, Gers manager Danny Rohl is eager to strengthen his attacking options at Ibrox, and the 18-year-old forward has emerged as a prime target for the Scottish Premiership side this summer.

Born in England but already capped at senior level for Armenia through his father, Geragusian is a raw talent with immense potential. Despite not yet making his senior debut for the Black Cats, his performances for Sunderland's youth sides have been nothing short of impressive. With 35 goals and assists combined in his last 60 appearances across the under-18s and under-21s, the young forward is turning heads across the football world.

This season alone, Geragusian has netted 13 goals and provided three assists in 29 matches, building on a stellar previous campaign where he recorded 12 goals and seven assists in 31 outings. His versatility is another asset—capable of playing as a striker or on the right wing, he offers the kind of flexibility that modern managers crave.

However, signing him won't be straightforward. Geragusian is out of contract this summer after a two-year scholarship deal, and Sunderland are pushing for him to sign a new contract. If he doesn't, Rangers and other interested clubs will need to negotiate a compensation fee with the Stadium of Light outfit, or risk a tribunal setting the price. Competition is expected to be fierce, but the Light Blues are hoping their pitch—a clear path to first-team football—will give them an edge.

For Rangers, this move is as much about the future as it is about the present. After a disappointing run of four straight defeats that derailed their title hopes against Celtic and Hearts, the club is desperate to rebuild and mount a stronger challenge next season. Adding a player of Geragusian's caliber, even as a long-term project, could be a savvy investment. With several attacking options ahead of him at Sunderland and limited senior opportunities, the prospect of regular game time at Ibrox might be exactly what the youngster needs to kickstart his career.
