Sofiane Diop has arrived from league rivals Monaco in a big money deal already while Kasper Schmeichel and Nicolas Pepe have arrived from Leicester City and Arsenal. Wales international Ramsey - who had a spell at Rangers last term - joined after agreeing to end his deal with Italian giants Juventus.
Kamara arrived at the club for £50,000 from Dundee after already agreeing a switch to Ibrox on a pre-contract under Steven Gerrard. He quickly established himself as a key player under the now Aston Villa boss and attracting interest from a host of clubs.
Any deal would see the club make a huge profit on their initial investment, but Giovanni van Bronckhorst doesn't want to lose the 26-year-old, who has struggled for a regular starting place in his top team. So far this season the midfielder has appeared seven times in all competitions for the Ibrox men, providing one assist. He's under contract with Rangers until 2025.
