£2.5 million Sam Lammers’s aspirations soar as he ascends the Utrecht scoring rankings.

Sam Lammers’s recent performances with Utrecht have given Rangers hope that they will at least recover £2.5 million from the sale of the striker.

After spending £3.5 million to join Rangers from Atalanta in the summer, the 26-year-old Dutch striker struggled there before being shipped back to his native country in January.

Since then, the unconventional forward has started to settle into a groove, as demonstrated by Sam Lammers’ performance as a match-winner against NEC Nijmegen this coming weekend.

The sole goal of the match and Lammers’ third since joining Utrecht allowed them to defeat NEC even though their Eredivisie rivals were two places higher in the standings.

Sam Lammers takes the lead for Utrecht

With this goal, Sam Lammers now trails Victor Jensen by just one goal in terms of goal contributions for Utrecht this season—another outstanding showing.

With four goals and three assists, Jensen leads the group with seven, but Sam Lammers is already poised to pass him with just six.

We think there might be some pressure in the Netherlands to close a trade if the attacker keeps up his excellent play at FC Utrecht.

Will the Dutch team, who selected Sam Lammers as Player of the Match in their victory over NEC, step up to replace the Ibrox striker, though, is the issue.

Rangers anticipates receiving a sizable payment for the striker, who the Dutch media has called a “fantastic” addition.

To reclaim £2.5 million on a Dutch striker, Rangers?

Without a doubt, Sam Lammers has improved matters a little since coming to Utrecht, which has raised transfer optimism in the Rangers organization.

Given the money only paid last summer, rumors claimed that Rangers will demand £2.5 million to make the trade permanent after approving the loan arrangement.

When it comes to Sam Lammers, who inked a four-year contract amid much pomp under former manager Michael Beale, Rangers are likewise in complete control.
