Discussions are taking place regarding a new deal for Rangers defender John Souttar, according to a confirmation from head coach Danny Rohl. Souttar's contract is due to expire at the end of the season.

Rangers have offered John Souttar improved terms on a contract extension until the summer of 2028, according to the Daily Record. Talks have been ongoing for several months with the 29-year-old, who is out of contract at the end of the season. Rangers have offered a substantial increase to his basic wage on a guaranteed two-year deal. Negotiations with Souttar’s representatives are still ongoing. Sporting director Kevin Thelwell had led the discussions but they have now been taken over by other Rangers officials, along with input from the 49ers Enterprises group.

Rangers are opening talks with John Souttar over a new contract. His current deal runs out in 2026. The club aims to avoid past mistakes of letting players' contracts run down. The extension is expected to be for a year or two without an increase in wages.

Rangers are set to hand John Souttar a new long-term contract. The Scotland international has become a first-pick under Philippe Clement and still has another two years to run on his current deal. The club is keen to tie the 27-year-old down on extended terms to protect his value.
