Leon King’s future at Rangers seems uncertain, with recent developments suggesting a potential permanent exit from the club. Although there’s no direct confirmation of a “Martin audition failure,” King’s lack of game time under manager Philippe Clement has raised concerns about his prospects at Ibrox.

Current Situation

King has struggled to break into the Rangers first team, featuring only six times for the club last season. The 20-year-old centre-back has fallen down the pecking order at Ibrox, making him a likely candidate for a transfer. Rangers are reportedly in talks to sign a new defender, which could pave the way for King’s exit ¹.

Potential Transfer

Several clubs have expressed interest in signing King, including Salford City, who have enquired about taking the young defender on loan. Rangers might consider loaning King out to give him regular minutes and allow him to develop his skills. A permanent transfer, however, seems more likely given the club’s current plans ¹.

Change of Agent

King recently switched agents, joining Storm Sports X, which could be a catalyst for him to instruct his new representatives to find a new club. This move suggests King is seeking regular game time and might be preparing for a permanent exit from Rangers ².

Conclusion

While there’s no concrete evidence of a permanent exit agreement, the circumstances surrounding King’s situation indicate a potential transfer. With Rangers seeking to strengthen their defense and King struggling to find game time, a move could benefit both parties. The young defender’s future at Ibrox remains uncertain, and it seems likely he’ll be leaving the club in the near future ¹ ³.
