Former Dundee United manager Ian McCall believes Rangers should be prepared to sell Super Eagles defender Emmanuel Fernandez if a sizeable offer arrives for the Nigerian, NigeriaSoccernet.com reports.
Fernandez has come under scrutiny following Rangers’ inconsistent start to the season, particularly after the centre-back struggled during the 1-1 draw against Dundee United and made a costly error in the 2-1 defeat to Jagiellonia Bia?ystok.
Speaking to Ibrox News, McCall suggested that Rangers would be justified in cashing in on Fernandez if a lucrative proposal is made.
“They got down the sides of them so easily, Fernandez as well,” McCall said.
“I mean, if you get a lot of money for Fernandez, it would be a no-brainer decision to sell.”
The comments come despite Fernandez enjoying an impressive first season at Ibrox.
The Nigerian defender made 28 Scottish Premiership appearances during the 2025/26 campaign and played an important role in Rangers’ defensive setup as the club finished third in the league.
His consistent performances also helped increase his profile and earned him his first call-up to the Nigeria senior national team in March 2026.
Fernandez will now be hoping to put his recent mistakes behind him and rediscover the form that made him one of Rangers’ standout performers last season as the Scottish giants look to improve their fortunes.
