Veteran forward Kenny Miller has vowed to play on next season - but admits it might not be at Rangers.

The 38-year-old - who marked his return to the Gers line-up against Dundee on Saturday with his first goal in five months - is out of contract this summer.

But the former Scotland international says he still feels like he has another season in him.

However, with Ibrox chiefs still to announce whether Graeme Murty will be staying on or replaced as boss, Miller confessed his future could lie elsewhere.

He said: "Nothing has been discussed regarding my future.

"Who knows what will happen at the club in the summer, so I'll just look after myself because I want to continue playing. I'll stay focused on that and we'll see what happens."

Miller made his first start of 2018 against the Dark Blues and sent Gers on their way to a 4-0 win.

He last found the net while scoring a double against Hearts in October, but appeared to have slipped down Murty's pecking order after a hamstring tear - sustained against Hibernian just before Christmas - which ruled him out for two months.

But he was back in the starting XI as he replaced the injured Josh Windass and now believes he can play a part in beating Celtic in next Sunday's Scottish Cup semi-final, live on Sky Sports Football.

"It was good to get back into the starting line-up because I haven't done that since December," he said. "It's been a frustrating time out for me. But sometimes you just have to bide your time.

Gers manager Graeme Murty claims the expectation to succeed at the club is second to none

"Hopefully my experience is important to the team - and I hope it's required next week as well. I was being written off after the injury but I was comfortable with it, I always felt I'd come back.

"I'd relish the chance to go in against Celtic next week.

"It's a massive game, a Scottish Cup semi-final and we want to win the trophy. We have to get past Celtic next week and it'll be a tough test. Hopefully I can keep the jersey."
