John Lundstram is reported to have ‘an agreement in principle’ to join Trabzonspor as a free agent in the summer.
The Scary Scouser has been made up by all things Ibrox over the last three seasons but with his contract expiring next month there is no sign of a suitable deal to extend his Ibrox love affair.
Philippe Clement has become the fourth manager that Lundstram has served under during three largely barren seasons, surprisingly he has been virtually ever present in midfield ahead of stars like Nico Raskin, Kieran Dowell and Ryan Jack.
At the age of 30 the paydays are running out for Lunny with The Sun reporting on a move to Turkey, which will probably be as successful as Ryan Kent’s switch a year ago:
Recent reports have suggested the former Sheffield United star is a target for the Turkish Super Lig club and he could join old team-mate Ryan Kent in the European country.
He has also been linked with a stunning move back to England with Premier League hopefuls Ipswich Town said to be interested in bringing him back down south.
But it’s Trabzonspor who are now leading the race for his signature as new reports suggest the midfielder is “nearing” a move to Turkey following positive talks with Abdullah Avci’s side.
That’s according to beIN Sports – who claim “an agreement in principle” has been reached between the player and club and discussions are now at an advanced stage.
It seems that Steven Gerrard has no interest in linking Lundstram up with Connor Goldson and James Tavernier in next season Al Ettifaq Dream Team.
Kemar Roofe, Leon Balogun, Jack and Borna Barisic are all out of contract with no word on acceptable offers being made.
Cyriel Dessers, Sam Lammers, Ben Davies and Rabbi Matondo are all on long term contracts.
Ex EPL players moving to Turkey for one last pension pot boost is like fading TV celebs appearing on ‘Blankety Blank’ or worse still ‘Celebrity Squares’. Will he be playing in midfield alongside John Inman and Willie Rushton?!
Willie Rushton?? That made me laugh Captain.
Which is more than Willie Rushton ever did!!
loony looked out of sorts when sevco lost to benfica and i don’t think he’s had a decent game for the hunz since , and i reckon it’s because he knows he was never getting a new contract or a share in the celebrations or CL monies if he helped them win the league , no siree bob !! it’s out that gap there fer you john boy thanks fer the memories !!! don’t call us !!! we’ll call you !!! lol
Sevco are waiting to see if they can get next years CL money before they renew contracts or put forward a CVA that will cause turmoil as they still have to pay for the confetti ?
The thinking man’s Ian Black.
