Vaclav Cerny’s immediate post-Rangers plans revealed after fans were convinced loan star had waved Ibrox goodbye

MANY Rangers fans reckon Vaclav Cerny was waving goodbye to Ibrox last night.

Now it’s been revealed exactly where he’ll be off to after his final Light Blues game this coming weekend.

While Rangers still have Saturday lunchtime’s clash with Hibs to come before season’s end, their home campaign came to a close against Dundee United last night.

A difficult season at home was closed-out with a 3-1 win over United at Ibrox.

Cerny started the match and was replaced with ten minutes to go by Oscar Cortes.

The Czech winger, 27, appeared to take his time in getting off the park, applauding the fans and placing his hand on the Gers badge on his shirt.

After full time, Cerny also walked around the pitch on his own, applauding all four stands.

Those actions left many Gers fans convinced that this was him saying his goodbyes to the club.

Cerny has of course only been on loan at Ibrox this season, with a season-long deal agreed with his parent club Wolfsburg last summer.

There was no option inserted for the move to be made permanent.

Cerny, who was an £8million signing for Wolfsburg from Twente in 2023, has been one of the Gers’ standout performers this season.

He’s scored 18 goals in 51 matches across all competitions.

After the game, Rangers interim boss Barry Ferguson was quizzed on whether or not Cerny had said goodbye.

But he didn’t seem to agree with those sentiments.

Ferguson said: “No, he was brought off because he was tired. That’s why I brought him off.

“Listen, he’s loved it here. I’ve got a really good relationship with Vaclav.

“Who knows what’s going to happen going forward. But one thing about Vash, he’s been a top operator for Rangers this year.

“He’s loved it.

“You just never know what’s going to happen in the future.”

After Rangers’ win over Aberdeen at the weekend, Cerny admitted there was “a big decision to be made” but insisted all of his focus was on the remaining games of the season.

Other clubs have been recently linked with a move for Cerny, most recently Turkish side Besiktas.

But exactly what the future holds for him remains to be seen.

However, his immediate post-Rangers plans have now been revealed.

Cerny’s wife Denisa has posted a picture of a packed suitcase on her Instagram stories.

She’s confirmed that after a long campaign, they’ll be heading back to their homeland for a while.

Denisa posted: “My days are now fully packed.

“And from Sunday, we finally have a long time in the Czech Republic!

“Summer, family, and time off!”

Exactly what the future holds after that period remains to be seen.
