According to a recent rumor, John Lundstram may be able to prolong his stay at Ibrox, highlighting the importance of securing new contracts for existing players. Several players, including Borna Barisic, Ryan Jack, and Kemar Roofe, will have their contracts expire later this year.

Rangers set for Cyriel Dessers decision

Rangers may sell Cyriel Dessers this summer as part of a significant transfer shake-up, as reported by Football Insider.

After struggling to make an impact for Michael Beale, the forward has an incredible 11 goals and four assists in just 21 appearances under the current management. Despite this, the club intends to make a “significant squad change” with a focus on bringing in “young high-potential players,” which the Nigeria international does not fall into.

Selling Dessers would arguably come as a surprise to Rangers supporters, considering he has managed to turn his season around after a poor start. The 29-year-old attacker has scored 10 goals in just 17 starts in the Scottish Premiership in 2023/24 to date, also bagging a goal and an assist apiece in the Europa League.

He has been lauded as “outrageous” by This Is Ibrox podcast, following a brilliant finish against Ross County earlier this week, and it does feel as though he is going to be a key player in the coming months.

That being said, if Rangers decide to trade aging players and bring in new younger faces this summer, their decision should be acknowledged and admired. Instead of focusing solely on the present and enabling the team to grow old together, the club prioritizes future planning.
