Lechia Gdansk forward Camilo Mena has emerged as a target for Rangers after the Scottish side missed out on Jens Hjerto-Dahl and Jahnoah Markelo. The 23-year-old Colombian scored 5 goals and provided 8 assists in 31 appearances last season in the Polish top flight. Lechia Gdansk currently sit 17th in I Liga with 0 points (0W-0D-2L) and a -6 goal difference.
Why are Rangers interested in Mena?
With Hjerto-Dahl likely heading to Hull City and Markelo close to joining Al Ahly, Rangers are seeking alternatives. Mena stood out individually despite Lechia’s relegation from Ekstraklasa. The Glasgow club has already contacted Lechia Gdansk and the player’s representatives, though talks remain at a preliminary stage.
What does this mean for Lechia Gdansk?
For Lechia, who are 17th in I Liga with a recent form of LL and 6 points behind leaders Arka Gdynia, a potential Mena transfer could provide a financial boost. No fee has been agreed yet, but given Lechia’s second-tier status, it is unlikely to be excessive. Their next fixture is at home against Arka Gdynia on 17 October 2026.
What happens next?
Rangers’ interest may accelerate in the coming days, though the situation is currently described as “exploratory.” Mena, who joined Lechia from Latvian side Valmiera, could be a shrewd addition to Rangers’ attack. His career path includes stints at Tigres’ academy, Deportivo Pereira, and now Europe.
