Breaking News:Rangers to attempt January loan signing amid transfer ‘long shot’

The Gers find themselves third in the Scottish Premiership and are currently nine points adrift of both Celtic and Aberdeen.

Philippe Clement needs a regular goal scorer at Rangers
Clement’s top priority in the summer transfer window should have been to bring in a regular goalscorer to lead his attacking line.
Dessers may well be the Gers’ top goalscorer at the moment but the amount of chances he’s missed outlines why he can’t be their first-choice number nine.
Lawrence Shankland was consistently linked with a switch to Ibrox in the summer but he has struggled for form this term and given he is out of contract at the end of the season it is unlikely they will pay a fee for the Scotland striker.

Hamza Igamane was obviously brought in but it’s clear to see from the few games the Morocco international has played for the Ibrox outfit that he’s nowhere near ready to challenge Dessers for the starting spot.
Only time will tell what the January transfer window will bring but if Rangers want to mount a late title challenge, the best way for them to do so will be to sign a new striker.
