Former Eurosport journalist Dean Jones has revealed what he heard about Hearts striker Lawrence Shankland amid Rangers links.
Jones told Give Me Sport on 11 February that until the last hours of the January transfer window,
the 28-year-old was open to leaving and maybe moving to Ibrox.
He also thinks that the fact that he has not to sign an extension at Tynecastle despite the fact that the window has closed may indicate a summer move to Gers.
He said: “Yeah, Hearts fans are probably not much better off here,
because he still hasn’t signed a new deal, and speculation will remain that another team will try to recruit him.
Even in the final hours of the window, I was not offered any assurances that he would not leave Hearts.
So that certainly says a lot about where this individual wants to go next with his career.”
Shankland to Rangers is still in the cards.
The chance of Shankland moving to Ibrox in the summer remains quite real, and talks between the striker and the club may still be underway.
Despite the fact that the trade did not go through during the January window,
Rangers’ interest remains, indicating that Shankland is still a goal for Philippe Clement’s team.

He would be an excellent fit for Clement’s team and might score more than 20 league goals over the following few seasons.
Rangers spent about £20 million on a squad overhaul last summer and signed Mohammed Diomande for a reported £4.5 million in January, with Fabio Silva and Oscar Cortes joining on loan.
