Lawrence Shankland has asked Hearts fans to "understand and respect" his decision to grasp an opportunity he "couldn't turn down" to leave for the club he supported as boy, Scottish Premiership rivals Rangers. "From the moment I walked through the doors of the club, I felt at home," Shankland said.
Hot on the heels of title heartbreak, the departure of captain and talisman Lawrence Shankland to Rangers is another crushing blow. This summer was already shaping up to be a major rebuild for Derek McInnes. It becomes much more difficult when you now need to replace your leader, your top goalscorer and, in the eyes of many supporters, your best player.
Derek McInnes asserted at various times throughout the season that Lawrence Shankland is the best striker in Scottish football. Eleven months after the striker ended a saga over his future by signing a three-year deal to stay at Tynecastle, he has abruptly left to join a direct rival. Since his move to Tynecastle in summer 2022, no player has scored more Premiership goals than Shankland, who hit 72 in 135 matches.
Hearts took just 49 words to announce the end of Lawrence Shankland's Tynecastle career. The striker was a hero in Gorgie, but moves on after four years and will officially become a Rangers player next month. "Heart of Midlothian can confirm that Lawrence Shankland is leaving the club to join Rangers," the club's statement said.
Lawrence Shankland's pending transfer to Rangers is a "win-win" for the Scotland striker and Hearts, according to Ryan Flynn. Rangers have agreed a deal with their Scottish Premiership rivals for the 30-year-old, with the move subject to a medical.
Rangers chairman Andrew Cavenagh spoke last Sunday about the club's need for leaders, ideally Scottish leaders and gnarled professionals. Rangers are not particularly lacking for goals - they outscored Celtic and Hearts in the Scottish Premiership in the season just gone - but they need steel and presence and Shankland provides that. It's still not definite - as of now he has not signed and there's still a medical to complete - but everything is heading rapidly in the right direction from a Rangers perspective, if not from a Hearts point of view.
