Rangers announce Niko Kranjcar departure

Rangers have revealed that they have allowed midfielder Niko Kranjcar to leave Ibrox by mutual consent.

Kranjcar has been with the Scottish giants since 2016, and the Croatian playmaker has gone on to feature on 26 occasions during that period.

However, the veteran has not played in the Scottish Premiership since the start of 2018, and Rangers have decided to agree to his wish to depart the club.

The 33-year-old told the club's official website: "Myself and Rangers football club have come to a mutual agreement to terminate our common contract.

"It's been an honour to have been part of such a big club and to have played for such great fans, it will always remain an honour for me.

"I wish the club success in its future while I now consider the options I have on the table."

Kranjcar's last outing came in the Scottish Cup victory at Fraserburgh at the end of January.
