Rangers boss looking for loan recruits following Miller's departure

• Walter Smith won't be able to splash out on any new signings

Miller - who was out of contract in the summer - joined Turkish outfit Bursaspor in a reported 400,000 deal yesterday.

Smith said: "We've been looking around for a little while to find a couple of players we can bring in on loan until the end of the season.

"So far, we've not been successful. But we will continue to look and try to supplement our squad a little.

"We've got the money to bring in a couple of players on loan but a transfer fee is probably outwith our capability at the moment."

Miller netted 22 goals this season but failed to agree a new deal with the Scottish champions before sealing his move to Turkey.

Smith added: "He's had a great influence on our team in the last few seasons and we're obviously disappointed to lose him."

Rangers are boosted by the return of Madjid Bougherra from suspension for their Clydesdale Bank Premier League game against Hearts tomorrow.

Steven Naismith could also be in contention for the visit to Tynecastle after being sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Sasa Papac faces a fitness test on a groin strain, while long-term casualty Kirk Broadfoot remains on the sidelines with a foot injury.
