Rangers: Luke Graham breaks silence on Dundee exit talk amid Ibrox links
Rangers are set for an important summer window, with Dundee defender Luke Graham a potential acquisition.
Graham is firmly on Rangers’ radar for the summer transfer window if reports are to be believed. The Dundee defender has been consistently linked with a switch to Danny Rohl’s Bears.
The 22-year-old has enjoyed an impressive campaign at Dens Park, with the Dark Blues one of the favourites for relegation at the start of the season.
Strong defensive performances have meant they have avoided the drop, and thus Graham has emerged as a target for Rangers.
Ahead of Rangers’ summer window, the Scotsman has now opened up about the speculation surrounding his future.

What has Luke Graham said about his future amid Rangers interest?
With Rohl expected to stay on as Rangers manager, plans will be underway to get the summer window in motion ahead of an important season for the Ibrox outfit.
Heartbreak during the post-split fixtures has put the German under intense pressure, and he must begin next season on a fast and firing start to alleviate the concerns that have popped up.
| Luke Graham’s season in numbers for Dundee | Total |
| Clean sheets | 6 |
| Duel success | 67% |
| Clearances per game | 6.5 |
| Balls recovered per game | 3.9 |
The transfer window will be one of the ways that Rohl can do so, with Dundee defender Graham a prime candidate to make a move to Rangers.
The Dundee star has been constantly linked with a switch to G51, and he has now responded to the recent talk over his future.
Graham, speaking to The Courier, has admitted he is beginning to get tired of the speculation stating: “It’s been non-stop really since January. Questions every week about where I’m going to be playing next season.
“You can sometimes get a bit fed up with it, but it’s obviously going to happen when there is a little bit of talk going on.”
Additionally, the defender has shared that he does not know if he will remain at Dens Park, with the links to Rangers continuing to emerge over the past few weeks.
He said: “I’ve really not got any idea. The first thing on my mind is just try and enjoy my summer.”
Manager Stephen Pressley has previously suggested his shock that interest in Graham from Rangers did not move forward back in January.
Why Luke Graham is ideal transfer for Rangers
A move to Rangers for Graham would make plenty of sense, especially considering the latest comments from Rangers chairman Andrew Cavenagh.
The Gers chief has insisted that focus is being put into signing Scottish players and those familiar with football in the country.
However, it is not the be-all and end-all when it comes to signings. Graham, who was born in Scone and has spent his entire career in the Scottish football pyramid, certainly fits into that mould.
Time will tell where the central defender ends up plying his trade, with the Bears needing reinforcements in that department following the end of Nasser Djiga’s loan spell.
