Frank McAvennie has insisted Celtic must “be aware” if Hearts hotshot Lawrence Shankland seals a move to Rangers this summer.
The former Celtic and Scotland striker, speaking exclusively to Football Insider, claimed the 28-year-old wouldn’t cut it in the Premier League – but his signing would be a “step in the right direction” for the Ibrox club.
Football Insider revealed earlier this year (26 January) that Rangers were keen on a late bid to land Shankland in the winter window but Hearts would not sell him mid-season.
He is only under contract until May 2025 and the striker has recently hinted he will not renew with Hearts as he eyes a potential move elsewhere.
The nine-cap Scotland international has notched 27 goals and six assists in 40 games so far this term.
