Rangers have decided to sign a player of worth £2.5m from hearts

According to Jonny McFarlane, Rangers “have to” attempt to recruit Hearts’ Lawrence Shankland in the summer, as it will be a

“completely different situation” than it was during the January window.

The journalist stated that it would be a “dereliction of duty” to not make a move for the Hearts captain in the summer after the Scot

helped the team upset Celtic and Cyriel Dessers’ lack of sharpness contributed to the Gers’ 2-1 loss to Motherwell, during an interview

on the Rangers Review Morning Briefing on March 5.

A year before his contract expires, he thinks it’s a realistic chance to get the 28-year-old, who has scored 27 goals in all competitions

this season, at a price of around £2.5 million.

Regarding Celtic’s 12 minute 45 second defeat, McFarlane stated: “That was made possible by a man Rangers ought to have signed in

the January window. Incredible. I’ve been recommending Lawrence Shankland to the Rangers for the past two years. Among the few

things I have gotten right this season, he has been ridiculously good.

“I just don’t think Dessers is good enough… there’s games like that with Motherwell [where] you need your number nine to step up,

stand tall, and put in a couple of goals in a game that’s quite marginal…

In the summer, Rangers will need to enter and attempt to capture Shankland. If they didn’t, I believe it would be a dereliction of duty.

With a full year ahead of them, what would Hearts desire in the summer? £2 million?

Following Derek Clark’s observation that the funds were unavailable in the middle of the season, McFarlane said, “January’s different

though. Hearts desired a premium, but for it to be worthwhile, it had to be substantial. If necessary, they have the option to switch

teams in the summer.
