Rangers have already secured two Ibrox arrivals.

Gary McAllister of Rangers speaks to player, Alfredo Morelos during the Ladbrokes Scottish Premier League between Celtic and at Ibrox Stadium on December 29, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers coach Gary McAllister has told The Scotsman he is excited for Rangers’ imminent arrivals.

The Gers have already wrapped up deals for Jordan Jones and Jake Hastie to sign at Ibrox.

Jones’ move was completed back in January, and Hastie’s just last week.

The chance of silverware has now gone for Rangers this season and while they have to secure second place still, McAllister says preparations for next season are in full swing.

He is excited for the chance to work with the incoming duo.

McAllister said: “Next season starts now; in fact, our plans for it have started already. Jordan Jones and Jake Hastie know where their future lies and they’ll be excited about coming to a massive club like Rangers.

“We’re excited they’ve joined and are making the step up to us and we can’t wait to work with them and try and make them better. Jake is a young Scottish player and I’m a big believer that young Scots should have a pathway to the Old Firm.”

Rangers have shown clear intent to improve next season already, and the incoming duo will help the Gers in attack.

There were times this season Rangers struggled to break defences down, and having more options available can only help.
