Josh Maja quizzed on potential Rangers Bosman transfer

Rangers target Josh Maja has revealed he will make his decision about his future at the end of the season after the Bordeaux striker was quizzed on the Ibrox side's interest.

The Nigerian international signed for Bordeaux in a £3.5 million deal four years ago after three years at Sunderland. He was previously at Manchester City and Crystal Palace as a youngster and has been at Fulham and Stoke City on loan.

Maja, 24, is out of contract at the end of the season as Bordeaux aim for a return to Ligue 1. He's the second top scorer in the French second tier with 16 goals and has played in all of their league games this season.

He's been linked with a move to Rangers once his contract expires and was asked directly about it in an interview in France.

Maja said: "I can't think about that at the moment.

"We have so many important games before the end of the season and I have to concentrate on that only. We'll see what happens at the end of the season.

"I have to wait to hear what the management of this club says and whether they want to keep me."

Maja was pinpointed for the top by former Sunderland boss Jack Ross when he was in charge of the Black Cats.

The ex-Hibs and Dundee United boss said: "He does have a brilliant attitude and good quality and he is a very, very good finisher.”
