After a disappointing campaign, Rangers<\/a> have instantly set their sights on some early reinforcements for Danny Rohl<\/a>, including the addition of Djurgarden winger Oskar Fallenius.<\/p>\n

The Gers are wasting no time before getting their business done this summer. They’re desperate to avoid a repeat of this season, which saw them fall to third and lose out on another Scottish Premiership<\/a> to rivals Celtic.<\/p>\n

The first target on their list is, of course, Lawrence Shankland. The Hearts captain has sealed a controversial move to Ibrox just weeks after his side finished above Rangers in the league.<\/p>\n

The Scottish giants are now aiming for a flurry of deals to go alongside the forward. According to TeamTalk, Rangers have launched an approach to sign Fallenius<\/a> from Djurgarden this summer.<\/p>\n

The Swedish winger is reportedly keen on a new challenge outside of his home country and wants to work under Rohl – handing the Gers a major boost.<\/p>\n

The Gers boss is very keen.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

It’s no real surprise that Rangers are targeting a winger, either. They’re set to send Andreas Skov Olsen back to Wolfsburg instead of triggering their buy option.<\/p>\n

This opens up a space for a winger to arrive in the form of Fallenius, who could join Shankland to help complete an attacking rebuild for Rohl ahead of next season.<\/p>\n

\n Shankland completes Rangers move<\/strong>
\n <\/h2>\n

Scotland forward Shankland has undergone a medical and formalised his surprise transfer from Hearts to Premiership rivals Rangers.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old has already agreed a deal with the Ibrox club after they triggered a break clause allowing him to leave Tynecastle.<\/p>\n

The transfer, which has left Hearts supporters reeling, has officially been announced. Shankland told the official Rangers website<\/a>: “I am delighted to be here and to have this opportunity. Rangers is my boyhood club, and it has always been a dream to play here, so I was<\/em> really keen to get it done.<\/em><\/p>\n

“A lot of hard graft has gone in to get to this point, and I’m just really happy. The club are in a position where they want to get back to winning silverware more regularly, and I want to be a big part of that, so that’s what I have come here to do.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Shankland appeared to be tied to Hearts until 2028, but it emerged over the weekend that the three-year contract he signed last summer had a get-out clause in the player\u2019s favour.<\/p>\n

While the Edinburgh club have been criticised by some supporters for sanctioning such a deal, they would not have had the services of the prolific forward for the past year if they had declined his request.<\/p>\n
