Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are focusing on quality, not quantity, this January.
Steven Gerrard has hinted to The Record that he doesn’t anticipate a busy January transfer window for Rangers.
Gerrard and Director of Football Mark Allen overhauled Rangers’ squad during the summer by signing no fewer than 15 players, between permanent and loan deals.
With January fast approaching, all eyes are on the Gers duo to see what kind of changes are made.
According to The Scottish Sun, one transfer is already being plotted as the Ibrox club look at bringing out-of-favour Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke to Glasgow.
But whatever happens there, Gerrard insists that the winter window will not see a lot of players arriving at Ibrox, claiming that quality is more important than quantity.
He told The Record: “It’s quality rather than quantity, for sure. We never stop looking to improve.
“In terms of January I don’t envisage many signings. It’s difficult to say if it will be one or two, we’ll have to wait and see, but we are looking.
“If that player becomes available in January then I will ask the board to support me on it.”
Reinforcements are very much needed.
Rangers are two points behind top-of-the-table Celtic but you have to imagine that Brendan Rodgers will also bolster his ranks in January.
At this moment in time, there isn’t much between both Old Firm sides, and certainly not in the table, but it would be a big shame from a Blues perspective if they let Celtic jet away from them in the new year by making the signings that Gerrard and Allen didn’t.
