DEAL DONE __ Long wait ends as Shankland joins Rangers from Hearts
Lawrence Shankland’s move to Rangers has finally been completed, ending months of speculation over the Hearts striker’s future.
The Scotland international has signed for the Ibrox club after a standout spell in Edinburgh, where his goals made him one of the most sought-after forwards in the Premiership. Rangers had tracked Shankland for some time, and the transfer has been described by supporters as a long time coming.
Shankland arrives with a strong scoring record and a reputation for leading the line with intelligence, physicality and composure in front of goal. His arrival is expected to add firepower to a Rangers side looking to challenge for domestic honours and make an impact in Europe.
For Hearts, the departure marks the end of an important chapter, but the club will hope to reinvest the fee and strengthen other areas of the squad. For Rangers, the signing represents a statement of intent and a chance to add proven Scottish Premiership quality to their attack.
Managerial staff believe his experience will be vital in tight matches. Shankland will now link up with his new teammates as preparations continue for the season ahead.
