Rangers transfer update as Michael Beale details potential defensive incomings

Michael Beale has issued a Rangers transfer update with the summer window close to completion.

The Ibrox outfit are in good shape after somewhat of a squad overhaul this summer, and injury troubles have now eased too.

Beale will welcome Tom Lawrence and Kemar Roofe back to his squad this weekend as Rangers take on Ross County, but there could also be some defensive reinforcements added before the window is slammed shut.

On links to defensive players, Beale explained: “It is a possibility. It is not a definite.” 

Beale was more concrete on outgoings with Glen Kamara expected to leave the club in the coming days.

Ianis Hagi has also been linked with a move away for more game time, but his exit is not firmed up according to his manager.

Beale continued: “Glen is the one who is closest. We had an honest conversation when I came back into the club about his future. There has been no fall-out.

“We were expecting Glen to move this summer. It was his wish as well. I wasn’t in the mood to persuade anyone to play for Rangers.

“It has to be the right club and valuation. He has been an excellent signing, but I want different here.

“There has been a lot of hot air around Ianis in the last week or so. It was a logical conversation. He has missed a year of football and we are very loaded in the positions he plays and he wants to know if is a main starter.

“We will see. It’s got to be right for Ianis and I am not dismissing Ianis being an important player either.”
