Former Celtic forward John Hartson and former Rangers player Alan Hutton have both conveyed their belief that signing Lawrence Shankland would be advantageous for Rangers. Shankland's contract with Hearts is due to expire at the conclusion of the current season, and he has reportedly rejected two contract extension proposals from Hearts. Although he has not had an outstanding season up to this point, his past achievement of scoring over 30 goals renders him a valuable prospect. The transfer fee remains uncertain, contingent upon Hearts' demands given Shankland's contract situation.

Lawrence Shankland, who is currently experiencing a dip in performance at Hearts, is set to be out of contract next summer. He turned down two contract extension offers from Hearts earlier this year. Former Rangers defender Alan Hutton has suggested that Rangers consider signing Shankland in January, despite his current goal drought. Hutton expressed his belief that Shankland remains a talented player who would excel in the Rangers team.

The Jambos goal machine has been heavily touted for a move to Rangers but as things stand, the Ibrox club can't afford him. Whether Steven Naismith would be willing to sell to a Premiership rival is another thing, and the Tynecastle side have yet to receive any bids for their top scorer this summer.

Andrew McKinlay has laughed off Rangers' reported interest in Lawrence Shankland and insists no bids have been made. Philippe Clement has been heavily linked with a swoop for the Jambos goal machine since the turn of the year but Gers have yet to lodge any offers.
