Rangers have already brought in four new players this summer at Ibrox.
Steven Gerrard has quickly made his mark as Rangers manager by bringing in four new players at Ibrox, and being linked with a whole lot more as the transfer window begins to pick up pace.
He has already brought in midfielders Scott Arfield and Ovie Ejaria from Premier League sides Burnley and Liverpool, while Jamie Murphy joins on a permanent basis and former Ibrox goalkeeper Allan McGregor has returned.
But Gerrard is expected continue his summer revamp at Ibrox, with central defenders, midfielders and perhaps a striker or two likely to be targeted before the end of the transfer window.
Having already brought McGregor back to Ibrox, Gerrard needs players that understand the rivalry with Celtic and exactly what it means to be a Rangers player.
It should convince the Liverpool and England legend to listen to former captain Barry Ferguson’s opinion on Sheffield United midfielder and former Ger John Fleck – with Ferguson claiming he is good enough for Premier League football.
Ferguson claimed in his Daily Record column that 26-year-old Fleck, who came through the ranks at Ibrox before moving down south in 2012, is capable of playing in the Premier League.
Fleck has shown plenty of class in the Blades’ 2017-18 campaign, becoming somewhat of an assist machine as he created eight goals in 41 Championship appearances.
A four-time Scotland Under-21 international, Fleck knows exactly what it means to play for Rangers after donning the Light Blue strip 55 times after making his debut in May 2008 under Walter Smith.
Gerrard must listen to Ferguson’s opinion of Fleck and consider a move to lure the 5ft 5in midfielder back to Glasgow to help the Gers in their fight to catch Old Firm rivals Celtic.
