Rangers are moving quickly in the transfer market after a difficult end to the season under manager Danny Rohl.
The club have already secured the signing of Lawrence Shankland from title rivals Hearts, signalling clear ambition heading into the 2026/27 campaign.
Shankland, a boyhood Rangers supporter, has been linked with a move to Ibrox for several years and has now finally made that dream a reality.
The Scotland international scored 16 league goals in 2025/26, just one behind the division’s top scorer Tawanda Maswanhise, continuing a remarkable run of form in front of goal.
In 2023/24 and 2022/23, Shankland netted 24 league goals in each respective season, cementing his status as the Premiership’s most consistent striker over an extended period.
Beyond the Shankland deal, Rangers are also targeting midfield reinforcements, with Dan Neil and Elliot Watt identified as the two primary targets in that area of the pitch.
In defence, the club continue to be linked with Casper Widell, who plays for Excelsior in the Netherlands, as Rohl looks to strengthen the spine of his squad.
Rangers are not activating their option to buy Andres Skov Olsen, meaning a winger could be purchased or loaned to fill that gap on the right side of the attack.
On the left, the club are harbouring serious ambitions of bringing Mikey Moore back to Scotland, according to Chris Jack of the Rangers Review, who reported that Moore feels he has “unfinished business” at Ibrox.
The 18-year-old spent 2025/26 on loan with the Light Blues, scoring seven goals and registering four assists across 36 games under Rohl, with performances widely considered more impactful than those numbers suggest.
Moore’s valuation has soared to as high as £40m according to Heart and Hands’ David Edgar, reflecting the enormous impression he made during his loan spell in Scotland.
Hailed as a “future superstar” by former Spurs man Gary Mabutt, Moore ranked among the very best attacking players in the Premiership throughout 2025/26.
Only two forwards created more big chances than Moore’s seven during the season, while only four forwards created more key passes per game than his 1.2.
When it came to successful dribbles per match, only Ibrahim Said with 1.7 and Sebastian Touenkti with 1.6 completed more take-ons than Moore’s 1.5.
Whether a return loan can be agreed will ultimately depend on Spurs, where new manager Roberto De Zerbi may wish to assess Moore himself before sanctioning another temporary departure.
For Shankland, the prospect of partnering Moore in attack would represent an exciting combination, with the winger’s creativity and directness perfectly suited to supplying a clinical centre forward.
