Rangers FC have taken a significant step in their summer rebuild with Scotland international striker Lawrence Shankland completing his medical at the club’s training facility. The prolific Hearts captain, who scored over 20 goals last season, was all smiles as he posed in the new UNIBET-sponsored Rangers kit, holding up his medical clearance form — confirming the deal is now in its final stages.
Shankland, 28, has been a long-standing target for Rangers, and negotiations with Hearts accelerated in recent days after the Ibrox board prioritized securing a proven goal-scorer. The move is seen as a statement of intent under new manager Russell Martin, who is reshaping the squad with domestic experience and leadership at its core.
The striker’s arrival is expected to bring firepower and depth to the Gers’ frontline, especially with Alfredo Morelos having departed and Cyriel Dessers facing uncertainty. With personal terms agreed and a transfer fee believed to be around £3.5–4 million, the official announcement is now imminent.
Shankland’s leadership, Scottish Premiership pedigree, and eye for goal could prove invaluable as Rangers prepare for a challenging domestic campaign and European qualification.
