Dujon Sterling Among Three Rangers Stars Who Could Be Next to Pen New Deal After John Souttar Announcement

Rangers FC is riding high on contract extension momentum following John Souttar's recent renewal, with Dujon Sterling becoming the latest star to commit his future to the club. The 24-year-old English defender has signed a one-year extension, securing his stay at Ibrox until May 2028.[1][2][3]



Sterling, who joined from Chelsea in summer 2023 on a four-year deal, has made 46 appearances across competitions, scoring one goal and providing two assists. His versatility shines through, having played as right-back, left-back, central defender, midfielder, and winger. A standout moment was his Man of the Match performance in the League Cup final, helping deliver silverware under manager Philippe Clement.[1][2][3]

" It is good to get it over the line... It feels like a home and for me there was no reason to change that." – Dujon Sterling[1][2]

Clement praised Sterling's vital role: "He has become a vital member of the squad... showing his potential in several positions."[1][2][3] Director of Football Recruitment Nils Koppen highlighted Sterling's work ethic and selflessness, emphasizing the club's focus on retaining squad assets.[1]

Speculation mounts on who follows suit. Versatile utility man Sterling's extension signals stability, and sources suggest three Rangers stars – potentially including key squad players like midfielders or defenders with expiring deals – could be next. Following Souttar's announcement, the club aims to lock in talent amid Europa League campaigns and domestic pushes. Fans appreciate Sterling's journey, from Chelsea youth product to Rangers mainstay, fueling optimism for more silverware.[1][2][3]
