While there may not be an urgent requirement for a central defender at the moment, the Scottish international, Scott McKenna, is reportedly open to a pre-contract agreement in January. If Rangers are keen on adding the former Aberdeen defender to their team, they must act swiftly, as Fenerbahce has shown interest in signing him, as reported by Kisa Dalga. The Super Lig team has been making significant expenditures in recent seasons.
Looking ahead, Leon Balogun’s contract is set to expire in the summer. Despite performing well under Clement, re-signing a player who will be 36 at the start of the next season doesn’t seem practical. Consequently, the options for central defenders narrow down to Connor Goldson, Ben Davies, John Souttar, and Leon King.
During the summer, Davies was the subject of transfer rumors, with Stoke City attempting a last-minute loan move. It would be logical for Rangers to explore options to move Davies again, potentially freeing up space in the squad.
