CARLOS PENA’S agent has indicated that he will be trying to thrash out an agreement with Rangers to terminate his client’s contract with the club.

The midfielder, who voluntarily entered rehab earlier this, still has two years to run on the deal he signed last summer when Pedro Caixinha was in charge at Ibrox.

The Mexican seems highly unlikely to see that out though, and his agent Salvador Necochea says that talks will soon get underway on a settlement for the remainder of his contract.

"We will communicate with Rangers to see if we can resolve the matter of the remainder of his contract,” Necochea said.

"Carlos wants to solve his issues and is committed to doing that. That's the most important thing right now for him and his family."

Pena voluntarily entered the Baja el Sol rehabilitation clinic in the Mexican state of Sinaloa earlier this week after a series of alcohol-related incidents at his loan club Cruz Azul, which caused former Rangers boss Pedro Caixinha to bin him just six months into a year-long stay.

However, Necochea is convinced Pena will be transformed by the stay at the clinic, which is owned by Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez, who praised Pena for having the courage to enter the facility.

And his agent has revealed the Mexican international already has interest from other clubs.

He said: "We are proud Carlos has taken this decision. It's not easy to take the bull by the horns. He himself decided to take this option.

"We are at the stage that this is the most important game of Carlos' career.

"He's been in for ten days so far and we expect him to be in for a minimum of a month. He knows some of his actions have been unfortunate. He is aware of that.

"Already some teams have expressed an interest in him because that they know Carlos is trying to resume his life and career.”
