WITH a week left of the January transfer window, there’s still plenty of time for business to happen at Rangers.
And former Gers ace Andy Halliday reckons there’s one Ibrox star who could have hinted he’s about to move on.
On a huge Sunday of title race permutations, Rangers took advantage to close the gap at the top.
Hearts and Celtic drew 2-2 in a Tynecastle epic, paving the way for Danny Rohl’s men to capitalise.
A 3-0 win over Dundee at Ibrox saw the Gers move above Celtic and into second place, two points ahead of their fierce rivals.
The Light Blues also narrowed the gap on leaders Hearts to four points, with all three teams now having played 23 games.

While the scoreline was comfortable in the end for Rangers, their lead was just a 1-0 win until second half injury time.
Danilo struck in the 91st minute before Djeidi Gassama added some further gloss on the victory.
But while Danilo’s strike sent the crowd wild at Ibrox – the goalscorer’s reaction himself was somewhat subdued.
The Brazilian more or less stopped in his tracks and stood still as his teammates mobbed him.

And former Gers ace Andy Halliday was left wondering if there was more to Danilo’s reaction than meets the eye.
The striker, a £6million signing in 2023, has seen his spell at Ibrox blighted by injury.
This season, he’s found himself third in the pecking order behind new recruits Youssef Chermiti and Bojan Miovski.
SunSport told you earlier this month how Danilo was one of a number of first team players the Gers would be willing to let leave this month.
And Halliday reckons Danilo’s rather muted goal celebration could be a sign he’s about to say goodbye.
The Motherwell midfielder told BBC Sportscene: “You can just see from his reaction there, I don’t know if I’m potentially reading into it too much, but you do feel as if at this moment in time he is third choice striker at Rangers.
“Probably where he doesn’t want to be at this stage of his career.
“So I wonder if that is the last time we see Danilo scoring in a Rangers jersey.
SA: “I think he’s opportunities and when given the opportunity, I don’t think he’s done enough.
“So if Rangers can replace Danilo with someone of better quality, someone who’s going to have to a real say, I think it’s a no-brainer for Rangers.”
