Rangers: John Lundstram could quit Ibrox after journalist hint

Lundstram remained coy on the situation, confirming that his deal would expire at the end of the season, but claiming any negotiations over a new one would stay between him and the club.

This led the former Eurosport journalist to suggest that there may be doubts over his future, despite the assumption previously being that he would remain at Ibrox beyond his current deal.

“It felt like a bit of a strange moment and one that probably caught me a little bit off guard,” Jones said in an interview with GIVEMESPORT on December 16. “When we’ve seen him speak previously about it, there didn’t seem to be much doubt that he would want to stay or he would be staying really if that was the case of him hoping to do that.”

The question appeared to almost startle him. It could be as easy as him getting tired of hearing about it. However, it also raises the question of whether anything has changed.

As I mentioned before, everyone has always assumed he will stay, but some are now wondering if he might actually depart.

Unlikely to be a hint

As usual, the comments from Lundstram are very unlikely to be a hint over his future. Whenever people read too deeply into these things like little quotes or reactions, they are usually wrong. This is more likely to be frustration at being asked the same question.

However, given that Lundstram is likely to be asked the question in every interview until he either signs a new deal or the current one expires, it does appear strange that he would react in the abrasive way he did rather than just giving your usual media-trained response.

But as he puts it, those discussions are private between him and the club. It’s unclear when or when exactly that decision-making process at Rangers will take place, but it will ultimately determine whether he stays or goes.

Although his accomplishments this season have undoubtedly earned him a longer contract, rumors that players could be let go at the end of the campaign in order to reduce wages could fuel further rumors about the midfielder’s future.
