Kris Boyd reckons Allan McGregor has a difficult decision to make over his future.
The Rangers veteran is out of contract and is still yet to decide on his next move.
Reports this morning linked the 40-year-old with a megabucks move to the UAE.
McGregor played a key role in Rangers' run to the Europa League Final last season and proved he can still perform to the highest level on the biggest of stages.

It has been claimed Jon McLaughlin could be set for the No1 role under Giovanni van Bronckhorst next season with McGregor playing second fiddle if he extends his stay.
The former Hearts goalie has proved he is capable at stepping in when required but Boyd reckons a full campaign as Rangers No1 could be a different story.
But he says the Ibrox men will need to go out and buy another keeper if McGregor decides his time at the club is up.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Boyd said: "I think Jon McLaughlin has shown he can step in.
"Whether he is ready to go and play a full season for Rangers is a different story.
"That will remain to be seen if he is given the opportunity.
"You would image if Allan McGregor doesn't sign a new contract, then Rangers will bring in another goalkeeper then it is the question of if you are bringing in a keeper who is second choice to Jon McLaughlin or are you bringing in somebody who is first choice? That is a decisions Rangers will have to make.
"On Allan McGregor, if you had said a a few months ago, you would have said this would be his last season but the way the season ended for him, he probably wants more of it
"It remains to be seen what will happen with Allan. It is a difficult one.
"Allan has played the majority of the games last season and it is very difficult to walk away from playing 30-40 games. Your fitness level are there, you've shown you can do it.
"He's played in a major European final, won the Scottish Cup and pushed Celtic all the way in the league so he's had a big part in the season. Only Allan will decide what he wants to do.
"I think from a Rangers point of view you have got to respect that as well.
"He has done a lot for the football club but I can understand that Rangers will want to know what is happening soon.
"The next days and weeks will be interesting to see what pans out."
