Russell Martin has revealed he expects to have one or two signings through the door at Rangers before the club's crucial Champions League qualifier at the end of July.
The new boss, officially unveiled yesterday, will immediately get to work on shaping his squad ahead of what is sure to be a busy summer of ins and outs at Ibrox.
The club are a little over a month away from their first competitive game of the 2025/26 season.
This will come in the form of a Champions League qualifier - a huge match for the team early in his tenure. The players will return for pre-season training at the end of this month.
Martin has revealed that there are some major areas he and other key figures at Rangers will need to recruit for before that two-legged tie towards the end of July.

"I think the way we're going to try and work and play is going to give them the best chance to show us what they've got and to give us the best version of themselves and hopefully one or two surprises.
"We'll need some help before that game for sure, but until we get in here and assess everyone, how many we'll need before the game or how realistic that is because football and the business and transfer window can be difficult.
"I'm pretty sure by then we'll have one or two people [in], to help us add to the group."
