Report suggests 24-yr-old is likely to stay at Rangers next season despite exit rumours – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Rangers winger Ryan Kent has been linked with a move away from the Scottish club at the end of this season.
According to Football Insider, the 24-year-old has a gentleman’s agreement with the Scottish outfit to stay for another year and he fancies playing Champions League football with Steven Gerrard’s side next season.
Apparently, the player feels loyalty towards Gerrard. The Rangers boss has been instrumental to his development and he gave Kent the platform to express himself with regular football at Ibrox.
The player has been heavily linked with a move to Leeds United in recent months but it seems that the Whites will have to wait another year to sign the player.
Kent has been in outstanding form since his move to Rangers and he is one of the best players at the club. The 24-year-old has 12 goals and 14 assists to his name this season.
The fans will be delighted to find out that their star player is likely to stay for another season at the very least.
The report claims that Rangers are keen on tying the winger down to a new long term contract but Kent is in no hurry to commit to a new deal.
It appears that the player is keeping his options open.
Kent has already won the Scottish League title with Rangers and he will be hoping to make his mark in European football with them next season.
