6. No pressure for Rangers to sell
Ross Wilson has revealed there is no pressure for Rangers to sell with player trading something that is "normal". The sporting director confirmed there is "no mandate" for new manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst to sell. He said: "We will reject offers as we have done so in the past if they are below our value. If we accept any offers, we will reinvest in this squad to take it forward.” (Various)
