Vignal considers three offers

Gregory Vignal claims Newcastle, Stuttgart and Marseille all want to sign him.

Gregory Vignal has revealed Newcastle, Stuttgart and Marseille are all chasing his signature.

The Frenchman is currently on loan at Rangers from Liverpool although the Merseysiders have granted Vignal a free transfer at the end of the season.

Rangers have expressed an interest in making his move to Ibrox a permanent arrangement, but Vignal has rejected their offer of a contract.

The full back is weighing up all his options and revealed that Newcastle and Stuttgart have contacted his agent over a possible move.

"The Scottish officials didn't come back to me [with a new offer] and I didn't make a step in their direction," Vignal told French magazine But.

"If they want me to stay, they know my intentions and my demands.

"I have not decided what my future will be yet.

"Liverpool are keen to let me leave for free with a percentage on the next transfer or by having an option on a young player.

"I know Stuttgart are interested, their officials directly contacted my agent. If the club will play in the Champions League they could become an attractive challenge.

"Anyway, I am in no hurry. I am looking for stability with a three or four year contract.

"I just had a phone call with Jean-Alain Boumsong. He told me The Magpies are looking for a left full-back.

"He talked about me to Graeme Souness. The club has made a contact with one of my agents.

"But I also noticed there could be a lot of changing at Marseille. I have been thinking about a return to France for a while, considering the big dates that will come for the French national team.

"But l'OM has to play in the Champions League or Uefa Cup."
