Ferguson keeps Rangers dream alive, but Bologna exit never close
Lewis Ferguson said nothing was ever that close to a move away from Bologna this summer, despite reports of interest from Rangers. He remains hopeful of a return to his boyhood club, but the club's departure remains unlikely.
Lewis Ferguson confirmed that a move away from Bologna this summer was never as close as some reports suggested. He told reporters the speculation about a transfer had not materialised into any real prospect.
During his time at Bologna, Ferguson has faced interest from several clubs, most notably Rangers, where he grew up and where his ambition to play again has been a long‑standing dream.
When asked about the rumors, Ferguson said, “Nothing was ever that close,” indicating that the talks had not progressed beyond initial stages and that no concrete offer had been made.
For Rangers supporters, the comments keep the possibility of a reunion alive, even if the reality of a transfer remains uncertain. The Scottish club’s fans continue to hope for a return of one of their own.
As the summer transfer window closes, Ferguson will likely remain at Bologna unless a definitive offer emerges. Meanwhile, Rangers will keep monitoring the situation, hoping that the player’s desire to return to his boyhood club translates into a future move.
