Rangers player could be heading for Ibrox exit

Rangers offloaded some of their senior players during the summer window as Philippe Clement wanted to sculpt the squad to his own taste.

The same trend could continue next summer, and more high-profile exits from Ibrox are expected to take place.

The Bears have fallen behind Celtic and Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership, but they have delivered better performances in the Europa League.

Whether Clement will be around for yet another squad rebuilding next summer remains to be seen – what is definitely certain is that Rangers have adopted a hard stance over dishing out new contracts to senior players.

According to the Daily Mail, Rangers are showing no inclination to offer Tom Lawrence a new deal.

Rangers stance on Tom Lawrence revealed

Lawrence only has a few months left on his current contract at the Glasgow club, and he will be a free agent next summer.

The Wales midfielder, who will turn 31 in January, has shown his quality in bits and pieces but never really fulfilled his potential at the club.

He is currently out of action for up to six weeks due to an injury he picked up during the win over Motherwell.

His career at Rangers has been blighted by injuries, and he has spent far too much time in the treatment room.

Is Lawrence heading towards the Ibrox exit door?

Lawrence has scored some important goals for Rangers this season, and he is the first-choice option in the number ten role in Clement’s 4-2-3-1 system when fit.

There’s no doubt about the quality of the Wales attacking midfielder, but it would be too risky to offer him a new deal considering his injury issues.

He has missed a huge amount of football since arriving at Rangers over two years ago, and the club should look at fresh young talents to replace him.

He is on a decent wage, and it makes sense for Rangers to part ways with him at the end of the season.
