After failing to come to a new contract agreement with Rangers, the Ibrox star will become a free agent at the end of the current campaign.
An ex-attacker for the Rangers has acknowledged that he does not have a single out-of-contract player staying at Ibrox this summer.
As his current contract draws to an end, Jamie Murphy thinks that exit-linked midfielder John Lundstram will not sign a new one to stay with the Light Blues. The 30-year-old Scouser is scheduled to become a free agent in the upcoming weeks after failing to come to a new contract arrangement with club officials thus far.
Gers boss Philippe Clement has admitted he would be keen to retain Lundstram’s services, but stated earlier this month “the water is too deep” between both parties
This has prompted rival teams to plan a summer transfer raid, with Lundstram and teammate Borna Barisic already having accepted terms in early negotiations with Super Lig team Trabzonspor over a potential move to Turkey.
Ipswich Town, the newest team in the English Premier League, is reportedly monitoring the situation as well, and according to the Scottish Sun, they are prepared to make the former Sheffield United player an alluring offer that would tempt him to return to the south.
KEN And ex-Ibrox ace Murphy believes Lundstram has a difficult decision to weigh up once the season is concluded. Asked on the Go Radio Football Show if he could see Lundstram returning to the Premier League with the Tractor Boys, who are back in the top-flight after a 22-year absence, Murphy said: “Yeah, it depends what he is looking for
Is he hoping to play in the Premier League or is he looking to travel overseas? He needs to decide what to do. He won’t likely stay with the Rangers at this point. That is evident from all of the leaks and rumors. I wish him luck, as he has performed admirably for the Rangers since joining.
