Manager Philippe Clement says Ridvan Yilmaz's future is at Rangers unless they receive a bid they cannot refuse.

Reports claim Rangers rejected a loan-to-buy offer from Galatasaray of around £3.4m for the 22-year-old, who has also been linked with Hellas Verona.

But with fellow left-back Borna Barisic out of contract in summer, Clement wants to make sure he has cover.

"If there comes an offer that cannot be refused or is a good thing for the club then we need to discuss it," he said.

"At he moment that is not the case."

Speaking after the 2-2 friendly draw with FC Copenhagen on Tuesday night, Clement added: "Ridvan is here and he started the game.

"Players also need to show they really want to be here in the next couple of months.

"That is one position that we have two players. One is end of contract, the other one there is a lot of rumours around.

"So it is clear that we need to be ready for that position. We cannot go on in three competitions with one left full-back."
