Exclusive from Ibrox: Rangers tell senior trio to look for new clubs
Adam Devine, Alex Lowry, and Ianis Hagi have all been told they can leave Ibrox prior to the August 31 transfer deadline.
As Philippe Clement looks to assemble his team for the upcoming campaign, the club is open to hearing permanent offers for all three players.
Because the manager of the Gers has stated repeatedly this summer that the team must sell players in order to make room for new players, all three will be available during this window.
After being deemed surplus to requirements by Clement, all three men spent the previous season on loan.
Not one of them was on the pitch or even on the bench during last weekend’s season opener against Hearts.
Rangers plan to try to replenish the squad with the proceeds from sales.
The sale of three players would increase Clement’s transfer budget, which he needs to bolster the team before the transfer window closes.
The Rangers manager is reportedly trying to sign two “top-class” forwards during this transfer window, according to Football Insider.
To help them challenge Celtic in the title game this year, Clement wants to have a striker and a “first-class” winger in his squad.
Lawrence Shankland and Morgan Whittaker are reportedly the team’s top targets, according to Football Insider, but the Rangers will need to let go of some players for that to happen.

Additionally, if the Gers are able to qualify for the Champions League, it would be a significant financial boost.
Today, the Scottish powerhouses begin their third qualifying round campaign at home against Dynamo Kyiv in the first leg of the match.
Spotted: Clement gets a “Major” injury boost while training with the Rangers before their match against Kyiv
Ahead of Rangers’ UEFA Champions League qualifying match against Dynamo Kyiv, Dujon Sterling has been spotted in training.
The Scottish Sun published an image on August 5th, which indicates that Philippe Clement has benefited from a “major” injury boost. Sterling, who was not available for the Hearts match over the weekend, is expected to play against the Ukrainian team.
On August 6, Gers and Dynamo Kyiv play at Arena Lublin, where the 24-year-old may play in his first game of the year.
Dujon Sterling is anticipated to be the Rangers’ first-choice right-back.
The possibility of Sterling getting back to full fitness before the Kyiv qualifier is a huge plus for the team.

There have been calls for a more defensively sound option because Tavernier, despite his attacking prowess, has been criticised for his defensive performances.
With his versatility and defensive prowess, Sterling might be able to help the Rangers with their defensive problems.
In addition to meeting the team’s immediate defensive needs, his possible start in the next league match or against Dynamo Kyiv would offer a long-term solution at right back.

James Tavernier has had a stellar Rangers career
As a result, Tavernier might take on a more senior role or offer options for rotation, making the team more competitive and well-rounded.
Rangers’ injury worries grow as the reported £4m transfer decision is looked at more closely
Philippe Clement, the manager of Rangers, promised fans that players would get hurt after he got his feet under the desk at Ibrox.
It shocked the former manager of Club Brugge what he found in Glasgow: a physically undercooked team that was regularly wiped out by problems.
Rangers have changed the medical staff and the way the club prepares for the season. Clement confirmed that “injury prevention work” has been a big focus this summer, and there was new hope that the club’s struggling medical department would get better.
Rangers had a rough preseason, and just 90 minutes into the new season, there are already signs that the Ibrox injury curse isn’t quite over.

Rangers get two injuries in a row
Rangers started their pre-season with a friendly match against Ajax. It was great to see Nikolas Raskin in the game.
The Belgian moved to Rangers about 18 months ago, but injuries have made his time in Glasgow, which started out so well, very difficult.
Raskin was the first player to cause concern at Ibrox this season when he went down after a hard challenge in the first half in Holland.
After being told Raskin would be out for six weeks, Rangers fans have heard it all before. He will now return sometime in September. We’re not going to hold our breath.
When Hearts played the first game of the Scottish Premiership season, having Colombian winger Oscar Cortes back in the team was a good sign.
The 20-year-old joined the club on loan in January. He got off to a good start, but an injury in February ended his season at Rugby Park.
In six months, the winger was hurt when he got into a fight with Hearts right back Gerald Taylor right before halftime.
When the kid first came out for the second half, he pulled up before being taken off, and Cortes left the pitch in tears.
We don’t know how bad the injury is yet, but Rangers fans will not be happy if he gets hurt again in the next year since they just agreed to pay £4 million to sign the attacker from RC Lens.
Ibrox’s great utility player Dujon Sterling hasn’t been seen since the 2-0 loss to Manchester United in a friendly, but he might be able to play against Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday.
Can Rangers get their expensive team in shape?
And these are scary signs that Rangers are still a long way from making their team strong enough to handle the tough games in Scotland.
Raskin and Cortes have had trouble adjusting to how tough and physical the league is. That’s about £5.5 million spent on players who haven’t been able to contribute consistently because of injuries.
It’s something that happens all the time in the squad.
But there is some reason to be optimistic, if that’s what you want to call it.
Philippe Clement stressed that many players on the team have finally had a full, physical pre-season after being hurt for years.
Before the game with Hearts, Clement told the press, “We already saw fewer injuries this pre-season.”
“There were a few players who hadn’t played in a full preseason in the past couple of years but did so now.”
“Does that mean we automatically won’t get hurt?”
The body can’t be changed in five or six weeks, so no, that’s not what’s going on. A few of them are already stronger, but there is still more work to be done.
This is about players like Kieran Dowell, Rabbi Matondo, Tom Lawrence, and Ben Davies, who will say they still have a lot to prove at Rangers.
Even though they may finally be healthy, we don’t think they’re good enough to lead Rangers to where they need to be.
That’s true even though Salary Sport says these four players make up about £4.5m of the club’s annual wage bill.
Danilo, a Brazilian striker who wasn’t used against Hearts, has also come back after a long knee injury, but we won’t say anything until he starts playing games.
