Rangers have two transfer plans that are contingent on their success in Europe, and Philippe Clement is expecting that qualifying for the Champions League will increase his budget.
They also play the opening leg of their third round qualifier against Dynamo Kyiv in Poland, which may help them better understand the most likely outcome—if they are unable to advance past the elite group stage, they will be relegated to the Europa League.
Getting a successor for John Lundstram seems to be Philippe Clement’s first priority. Bobby Clark, a playmaker for Liverpool, would be a good fit to take up that position.
The transfer market for rivals Celtic has opened up on the other side of the Clyde, but it seems like chaos is about to break out. While Manchester United midfielder Hannibal Mejbri has all but stated he wants to go for game time amid links with the Parkhead club, Brighton is the latest team to show interest in Matt O’Riley. Mejbri may be a ready-made replacement if O’Riley does depart.
Aberdeen is prepared for additional offers for Bojan Miovski, as Southampton and Genoa are the most recent teams preparing to make a move. In the capital, Record Sport reported that Stephen Kingsley has signed a long-awaited new contract at Hearts, and Hibs have emerged victorious in the chase for Fulham forward Kieron Bowie.
