Rangers fans eager for club to finalise deal for £18m-rated star

Rangers fans have called on the club to finalise a contract for centre-back Connor Goldson after reports in April claimed the Ibrox stalwart was set to sign.

The Daily Record claimed well over a month ago that Gers defender Connor Goldson was set to be the latest name to sign on at Ibrox amid a spate of contract renewals.

Allan McGregor, Steven Davis and James Tavernier were amongst several players given renewals with Goldson’s future believed to be a priority such is his importance to the team and club.

Connor, 28, played in every game this season and even led the side during an extended absence for club skipper James Tavernier.

A vital player whose defensive prowess is supplemented with an astute offensive passing ability, Goldson is every inch a Premier League quality defender and a player it will be very difficult to replace.

Goldson’s value to the side was given a valuation in the Athletic by 21^st club earlier in the season and they believed him then to be an £18m player.

As Rangers prepare an assault on the Champions League next season Goldson is entering the final year of his contract following a £3m move from Brighton in 2018.

To protect the asset and ensure Connor doesn’t get unsettled the club’s supporters want to see the centre-half signed on at Ibrox:

Rangers are going to break my heart this window, one or two at least. Love Goldson to sign an extension but he's run his contract down to 12 months, Kamara 24 months. Borna and Goldson I reckon we'll cash in on, minimum. Itten, Kamara, Hagi, Kent, Morelos, bids come in…..

Now if tomorrow we could get an announcement that Kent and Goldson have signed contract extensions it would be the perfect weekend
