The Gers may not be in the driving seat when it comes to fighting for the Scottish Premiership title, but it appears they are preparing to be busy attracting fresh faces ahead of next season.

Having been appointed as Rangers’ manager last November, van Bronckhorst could look to put his own stamp on the squad heading into his first full campaign at the helm.
