Rangers boss Pedro Caixinha has found himself linked with a number of stars since his appointment at Ibrox.

The Rangers rumour mill is churning out names thick and fast as the summer transfer window approaches.

But how could the Gers XI look if several of those recent links came true? Good enough to challenge Celtic?

Goalkeeper – Wes Foderingham

Rangers’ regular ‘keeper – and one who’s unlikely to be replaced.

Right-back – Will Vaulks

Rotherham United's Will Vaulks in action with Leeds United's Charlie Taylor

Rotherham’s ex-Falkirk midfielder, who can also play in defence. He’d struggle to get into this team’s engine room.
