Shocking News:Rangers told Lawrence Shankland transfer in January now a ‘no-brainer’
Rangers signing Lawrence Shankland from Hearts in the January transfer window would be a “no-brainer”, according to Stephen McGinn.
The Light Blues were interested in signing Shankland in the summer, but were put off by Hearts’ £3million-plus asking price for a player in the final year of his contract [HITC].
However, with Cyriel Dessers struggling for form in front of goal, McGinn has urged Rangers to snap up the Scotland international in January.
Discussing if Rangers should sign Shankland on the back of Alan Hutton insisting they should, former player and now pundit McGinn said on the Go Radio Football Show [12 November]: “All day, all day. An absolute no-brainer.
“I think Lawrence Shankland would score every week for Rangers domestically.

There is no denying that Shankland has struggled for form this season, with only a goal and four assists to show for his 18 appearances. However, a change of scenery might be just what he needs.
Moreover, his poor form would also strengthen Rangers’ bargaining power and with his contract expiring in May, he could be available on the cheap.
In other Rangers news, Clement has been accused of trying to protect himself at Ibrox after what he did to this player.
