Change is on the horizon for Rangers this summer, whether you call it a revamp, rebuild, or reconstruction. Significant changes have already occurred, with the club parting ways with five seasoned players at the end of their contracts, generating no transfer fees in the process. Belgian manager Philippe Clement faces a challenging task this summer as he considers further cuts to the first-team squad. However, one player has already demonstrated his abilities early in pre-season: Cyriel Dessers.

Initially struggling to impress and facing criticism from fans, Dessers began to win over supporters as the season progressed despite dealing with a series of injuries. Now, he is strongly linked with a move away from Ibrox, with Greek club PAOK and other European and Saudi Arabian teams showing interest. With the potential to recoup the £4.5 million spent on him last summer, Rangers supporters are more hesitant about his departure. Starting pre-season on a high note, Dessers scored in the club’s first friendly of the new campaign, contributing to a 5-2 victory over Hamilton.

Rangers may be on the verge of securing their most impactful signing of the summer, significantly boosting Philippe Clement’s transfer efforts. The Belgian manager has already brought in several promising young players to enhance the squad’s depth and added experienced goalkeeper Liam Kelly. Notable moves include those for Oscar Cortes and Connor Barron. However, the team’s attacking options remain limited, even with the anticipated addition of forward Hamza Igamane, who shows great potential.

The pursuit of Cyriel Dessers, a player who scored 22 goals last season, is heating up, as reported by Rangers Review on July 3. Meanwhile, there is widespread speculation that club captain and top scorer James Tavernier may leave Ibrox. This potential departure would significantly impact the team’s attacking capabilities from the previous season.

Last summer, Rangers underwent a significant rebuild under the stewardship of then-manager Michael Beale, who played a pivotal role in overhauling the squad. Departures included long-serving players such as Allan McGregor, Alfredo Morelos, Ryan Kent, and Scott Arfield, bid farewell as part of the restructuring. Conversely, nine new players joined the team, ranging from defensive acquisitions like Jack Butland and Dujon Sterling to offensive additions such as Danilo and Cyriel Dessers.
