According to sources that spoke with Football Insider, Kemar Roofe won’t be given a new contract offer from the Rangers before the end of the campaign. When his current contract expires at Ibrox at the end of May, the 31-year-old striker is increasingly set to leave.
Although Roofe is thought to be among Rangers’ highest paid players, he has suffered from injuries ever since joining the team in 2020 after leaving Anderlecht. Due to an injury sustained in December, the forward is presently sidelined. Philippe Clement has not provided supporters with an update regarding his anticipated return to play.
Due to his numerous injuries, the Rangers have decided not to extend an offer to the Jamaica international. As a result, according to a reliable source who spoke with Football Insider, Roofe has only made 15 appearances this season across all competitions, recording two goals and one assist.
The former Leeds player, who finished first in the Scottish Premiership in 2020–21 under Steven Gerrard, has scored 38 goals in 93 appearances for Rangers overall. Four years ago, the Glasgow giants paid roughly £4.5 million for him.
At Ibrox, Cyril Dessers and Fabio Silva are Clement’s team’s first-choice strikers right now as they are enjoying their finest season since 2023–2024.
Borna Barisic is also scheduled to depart the Rangers in May; nevertheless, he intends to make the most of his free agency status during the off-season, according to information Football Insider disclosed on Wednesday, February 14. Only goals scored separates the Ibrox club from Celtic in their Scottish Premiership title challenge.
In other news, the Rangers’ new price tag suggests they may sell their star player for a “huge” profit.
