Glasgow Rangers midfielder Graham Dorrans has endured a difficult time since moving to Ibrox.

According to a report from the Evening Times, Graham Dorrans is one of the players that will leave Rangers at the end of the season as Steven Gerrard conducts a significant overhaul of his squad.

It has been a frustrating spell for the Gers in recent weeks. They go into Wednesday’s clash with Hearts looking to end a five-match winless run that may have given some of their rivals a bit of hope that second place may not quite be decided just yet.

The run is hardly surprising given how many games Gerrard’s men have played this season. But it is arguably still a reminder that there is a lot of work for the manager to do over the summer.

And it appears that he is ready to make significant changes. The Evening Times names Wes Foderingham, Gareth McAuley, Lee Wallace and Dorrans as four players who will leave Ibrox, while adding that there are question marks over a number of other members of the squad.

According to the Daily Record, Dorrans will still have one year on his deal this summer, so it is interesting that his future appears to have already been decided.

Unfortunately, he has not been a successful signing for the Light Blues, having joined for £1.3 million (via Transfermarkt). He has only managed to make 23 appearances for the club in all competitions, including just three this season.

He appeared to be an outstanding addition when he arrived, and he arguably still had the potential to be the best midfielder in the squad when Gerrard was appointed last summer. But it has just not happened for the 31-year-old.

And now it appears that there is every chance that the 4-0 win against Ayr back in September could prove to be his final appearance for Rangers.
