Hearts Ace Lawrence Shankland on Rangers’ Radar Amid Contract Negotiations

Rangers are closely monitoring Hearts’ standout performer Lawrence Shankland, with sources indicating that the Scottish striker might be a summer target for the club, according to information obtained by Football Insider. In the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track Podcast, transfer correspondent Pete O’Rourke disclosed that Shankland has been presented with a “record-breaking deal” to extend his stay at Tynecastle, although he has yet to commit to new terms.

While Rangers are keeping a watchful eye on Shankland’s situation in Edinburgh, a potential deal within this month appears challenging. Shankland, who currently leads the scoring charts in the Scottish top-flight with 18 goals in 28 appearances for Hearts, has long been linked with a move to Rangers due to his consistent goal-scoring prowess.

With just 18 months remaining on his current contract, Shankland could become an attractive prospect for Rangers in the summer, allowing them to secure his services on more favorable terms. The Glasgow giants, currently positioned second in the league table, are reportedly continuing their pursuit of attacking reinforcements this month, following the acquisition of Wolves’ Fabio Silva.

Additionally, sources from Football Insider (January 17) have revealed that Rangers, along with Celtic and several Premier League clubs including Wolves, Nottingham Forest, and Brentford, are monitoring Bristol City’s highly-rated striker Tommy Conway as part of their ongoing recruitment plans.

Rangers, eight points behind league leaders Celtic with two games in hand, are set to face fourth-tier Dumbarton in the Scottish Cup on Saturday, January 20. In related news, a summer signing is reportedly on the verge of securing a permanent move to Rangers, a development described as “huge” by a pundit.
