Rangers could be set for a signing spree after 10 names have been linked with a move to Ibrox.

Football Insider revealed on 17 August Rangers are targeting three key areas, with a new striker, winger and centre-back the priority for Russell Martin.

Rangers have signed Oscar Cortes, Oliver Antman, Thelo Aasgaard, Emmanuel Fernandez, Djeidi Gassama, Joe Rothwell and Lyall Cameron on permanent deals.

Meanwhile, Mikey Moore, Nasser Djiga, Max Aarons and Jayden Meghoma have all made the move to Ibrox on loan.

Football Insider revealed on 16 August Rangers are expecting offers for Nicolas Raskin and Hamza Igamane, with the money from their potential sales to be reinvested in the squad.

Rangers to ramp up transfer activity next week

This article contains exclusive comment from Keith Wyness, former Everton, Aston Villa and Aberdeen CEO.

Rangers were beaten 3-1 by Club Brugge on Tuesday (19 August) in the first leg of their Champions League play-off round tie.

Meanwhile, Martin’s side have endured a difficult start to the season domestically, having drawn both of their opening Scottish Premiership matches.

Speaking on the new edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, Wyness said: “I know there are links with defenders, midfielders, strikers still, and depending on where they go shopping will be dictated by this European run.

“So, there’s a flurry of activity. I know Russell’s nowhere near finished with his squad.

“I think he needs to get rid of some of the older names that have been there and still needs to freshen up the whole squad in many ways.

“I’ve seen a lot of names linked. I’ve seen as many as 10 names linked with Rangers still.

“I think if they did by some great effort get through, then the floodgates will open on signings and I think that would give Russell a higher-quality shopping product as we go forward, but a lot still to do for Rangers.”
