Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers parted company with Mark Warburton two weeks ago.
Graeme Murty has told the Glasgow Evening Times that Glasgow Rangers players need to realise they are playing for their futures.
Murty has distanced himself from taking on the Rangers job on a full-time basis, but he still does not want the Ibrox side’s players slacking off during his time in charge.
The 42-year-old boss says that he has let Rangers players know that whoever takes over will be watching their upcoming performances intently.
“Every single time they put on the shirt is an opportunity because I’ve told them the new manager is watching. Simple as that, I can’t make it any clearer to them, whoever it may be, the new manager is watching and they are forming opinion of you as players and people, so you want to put yourself in the very best light that you can,” Murty said.
Murty has had mixed success since taking over from Mark Warburton at Rangers two weeks ago.
Murty won his first match at the helm, but Rangers were disappointingly beaten by Dundee in their most recent outing.
The Light Blues are now looking to bounce back from that defeat, by beating Inverness on Friday night.
Rangers are attempting to catch Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership table, and reclaim second place.
