Michael Beale in big Rangers transfer reveal tease as boss prepares to tell stars who is staying or going imminently

Michael Beale says Rangers will make an announcement to the squad straight after the weekend over who is staying and who will be leaving Ibrox.

The Rangers boss was speaking ahead of Sunday's trip to face Hibs as they look to build on last week's victory over champions Celtic with a third win on the spin. The title is long gone but they want to take some winning momentum into a summer that promises to be eventful with plenty of comings and goings at Ibrox.

Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent look set to leave and Beale revealed the club will make a final decision on player departure over the next two days – before informing the squad about who is leaving after the Easter Road showdown. Beale said: "After the weekend we will formally let everyone know the players leaving. Zak Lovelace and Bailey Rice are away on international duty so one or two other young lads will get opportunities to come round the first-team side.

"We want to end the season well. There is a core of players that will move us forward, last week was a decent performance but it is important we don't get romantic over one result.

"It's always a happier place after a victory, the fans were excellent. On the day the players performed well and played with passion but we won't go overboard after one victory. We are certainly heading in the right direction."

One player who won't be leaving though is Ryan Jack after the announcement the experienced midfielder has penned a one-year contract extension. Beale said: "Ryan is a big part of our squad behind-the-scenes, it is important I have someone like him available. He has been available for over 80 per cent of matches since I returned and delighted he is staying around."
