Rangers could axe Borna Barisic and Eros Grezda from Ibrox.

Borna Barisic of Rangers looks on prior to the Ladbrookes Scottish Premiership match between Rangers and St Johnstone at Ibrox Stadium on February 16, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

The season isn’t quite over yet, but with second place secured, Rangers may already have one eye on the summer transfer window.

The Gers already have one player incoming as Jordan Jones will arrive from Kilmarnock, and others should follow him to Ibrox – such as Greg Stewart.

Steven Gerrard will also be keen to offload some of his fringe players though, and two players who may be heading for the exit door are Borna Barisic and Eros Grezda.

After facing Osijek in the Europa League, Rangers pounced to sign Barisic having impressed in the tie, before then signing teammate Grezda from the Croatian side too.

Both players arrived in seven-figure deals, and with international caps to boot. Rangers fans were excited about Barisic having seen him impress against Gerrard’s side, but Grezda missed those games through injury, and arrived as an unknown quantity.

Sadly, the pair have struggled to impress. They’ve barely featured as starters under Gerrard, and were part of an embarrassing first half display in a game against Liverpool’s Under-23’s last week.

That may be the final straw for the duo. Gerrard has hinted to The Scottish Sun that he’s had enough of the pair as they haven’t taken on his criticism and instructions, and they weren’t even in the Rangers squad to face Aberdeen today.

Rangers fans have now taken to Twitter to share their thoughts, reacting to Gerrard’s comments by suggesting that Barisic and Grezda are ‘finished’ at Ibrox and will be sold this summer, though some believe that Barisic is worth keeping or loaning out rather than getting rid of.

His mentality has been criticised, but some still see a player in Barisic, which can’t really be said of Grezda, who has been a huge flop with Rangers.
