Philippe Clement has insisted nothing is official regarding Rangers transfer exits for Borna Barisic and John Lundstram despite major links with a move to Trabzonspor.
The Ibrox duo have reportedly been in talks over a move to the Turkish clubs with reports abroad even suggesting deals have been reached.
However, when quizzed on the pair, Clement stated nothing was official but then conceded the longer no new deal is agreed goes on the there is increased possibility for an exit in the summer.
Both Barisic and Lundstram are out of contract at the end of the season and therefore free to discuss pre-contract moves away from Rangers.
But Clement is certain both players remain dependable and willing to give everything for Rangers in the final few weeks of the season.

First, questioned on reports of Barisic signing a deal in Turkiye, Clement said: "There have been reports for months about a lot of players and a lot of things.
"As long as nothing is official and I see the right things in the training and the dressing room, players are selectable.
"Borna will be in the selection from what I have seen until now. If he steps into the building tomorrow with another mindset that is something else. I don’t believe so.
"I see somebody who is serving this club already a long time and is really hungry for more titles and more trophies."

On Lundstram, Clement added: "There is nothing official around that. I am not naïve, the longer that things last the more possibility that other people step in.
"I see Lunny every day the same way that he was two months ago, three months ago, five months ago. He is fighting for the club.
"All these players are busy with winning trophies and doing the right things together. Otherwise they would not be in the selection."
