Bournemouth loanee Jermain Defoe wants to remain at Rangers.

The 36-year-old is on an 18 month deal that will see him at the Glasgow club, playing for Steven Gerrard.

But Bournemouth can recall him in the summer. Defoe hopes that is not the case, as he was not getting many first team chances at the Premier League side.

Discussing his future, Defoe said to reporters: "I want to stay here, for sure. I want a full season to try to achieve something special here.

"Bournemouth can call me back in the summer and again in January, but I am focused on being here and scoring goals for Rangers.

"I want to help the team, it's as simple as that. So far it's been great.

"There have been ups and downs, but that's football.

"However, I believe next season we can really kick on and achieve something."
