The Welshman is expected to leave Juventus this summer, but it’s unclear whether he will stay at Ibrox or move on.

“That’s to be decided at the end of the season, there is no update on that yet,” he said over the weekend.

“I’m just looking forward to the final few weeks here and hopefully making it a very memorable experience for me.

“I’m sure there will be conversations to be had after the season is finished but right now I’m just focused on trying to win these two competitions with Rangers.”

And according to Alan Nixon, Rangers are considering signing Dapo Afolayan as a replacement for Kent.

According to transfer expert Pete O’Rourke, the Bhoys like the look of Mendy, who has scored 16 goals in 32 Ligue 2 appearances this season.

He told GiveMeSport: “It’s been a successful market for Celtic in the past, them raiding the French market, and maybe they’ll be hoping they could have more success if they do decide to pursue a move for Mendy as well.

“He looks like a talented player, and Postecoglou is planning ahead and looking to strengthen his squad with their Champions League football in mind next season.”
