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.
