Breaking News:Lawrence Shankland back on Rangers transfer wishlist as Hearts resolve ‘to be tested’
Lawrence Shankland is reportedly back on Rangers’ transfer wishlist this summer after the Ibrox club considered a move last term.
The Hearts hitman lashed in 33 goals in all competitions last term from 52 appearances and that form took him to Euro 2024 with Scotland. It was a successful campaign for player and club as he helped them to a convincing third spot finish in the Premiership and admiring glances from elsewhere came with it. Gers boss Philippe Clement reportedly decided against a move for the prolific attacker back in January but the Daily Record report he has changed his mind as Shankland’s name is back on their summer shortlist.
And if the Belgian can free up funds – with current starting striker Cyriel Dessers still a £4.5million target for the likes of PAOK – Shankland could well be the subject of an official bid.
The 28-year-old has entered the last year of his deal in Gorgie and that could potentially work in the Light Blues’ favour with the Jambos and Steven Naismith surely wanting to cash-in and avoid losing their captain for nothing.
But it could also mean spending as much as £3m on the star man. Big earners such as Connor Goldson and James Tavernier may yet leave Ibrox this summer and that would see a hefty amount saved on weekly wages.
Ianis Hagi and Sam Lammers might also rake in some money from transfer fees.
