Ryan Kent leads Rangers summer exit list as Michael Beale transformation begins with Ibrox outgoings

Ryan Kent leads the Rangers summer exit list alongside Alfredo Morelos.

The Light Blues have officially announced the departure of the former Liverpool winger alongside the Colombian, who Michael Beale revealed would be departing in the summer following the victory over Aberdeen during the league split. Neither player has confirmed moves elsewhere at this stage but they WON'T be continuing their football in Glasgow.

Veteran keeper Allan McGregor joins them in departing the club alongside Filip Helander, who leaves without playing a single game this season due to injuries. A key talking point related to his spell at Ibrox. Scott Arfield is another who will bid farewell at the end of the campaign as he seeks his next challenge.

Beale is set for a big summer revamp and today's announcement is the start of that as a number of new arrivals get set to move to Govan in a bid to dethrone Celtic and Ange Postecoglou next season and qualify for the Champions League once again.

A club statement read: "Rangers can today announce Scott Arfield, Filip Helander, Ryan Kent, Allan McGregor and Alfredo Morelos will leave the club upon the expiry of their contracts this summer.

"Steven Davis, whose contract is also expiring, remains in discussions to continue working with the club’s medical team to support his return to full fitness following a long-term ACL injury suffered in December 2022.

"Each of the departing players has given the club excellent service and will move on to the next stage in their careers with the warmest wishes and thanks of everyone at Ibrox and the Rangers Training Centre.

"The individuals have contributed enormously to the club‘s capture of a record 55th Scottish league title, last season’s Scottish Cup, the run to the UEFA Europa League final and qualification for the UEFA Champions League this season. Allan McGregor, of course, also gained significant honours with the club in his first spell and broke the 500 appearance mark for Gers back in April.

"Tributes to the departing players will be paid at tomorrow’s match with Hearts. Additional acknowledgements to those leaving will continue on the club’s digital platforms in the coming weeks, with Allan McGregor to be further recognised in his testimonial match with Newcastle on July 18."
