John Souttar transfer to Aris Thessaloniki faces contract dispute
The potential transfer of Scotland international defender John Souttar from Rangers to Aris Thessaloniki is facing complications due to a financial dispute. Reports indicate that the primary obstacle is a disagreement regarding the payment of the final year of Souttar’s contract at Ibrox.
Aris Thessaloniki is reportedly making efforts to finalize the deal before the Greek transfer deadline on Tuesday evening. While Souttar was expected to undergo a medical, the unresolved contractual issues between the player and Rangers have stalled the process. If the move fails to materialize, Rangers management has indicated they will honor the existing contract and reintegrate the defender into the senior first-team squad.
