EMBARGO ENDS IN SEPTEMBER

Rangers were put in the transfer embargo that will only end in the upcoming September, which limits the ability of the Rangers manager Ally McCoist to bring in players during the summer. As a result, the manager has revealed that he plans to use only youngsters from first few matches of the new campaign. McCoist, though, has said that he is undeterred by the transfer embargo as he is already working on several transfer targets. The club are almost certainly on their way to the second division of Scottish football due to the huge advantage they have in the league table.

McCoist has also failed to reveal his transfer targets in the fear that they might be taken away by some of the rival clubs. He has already stated that the club may very well lose the first two matches of the new season due to the fact that he is going to field youth players. However, he is prepared to take the criticism from the supporters that may come along the way. Due to the fact that Rangers will have to work within 30% of the turnover, it will be extremely hard for them to bring in big names during the summer. Yet, McCoist has seen enough interest in the players to join the former Scottish Premier league club.

“I’m 100 per cent clear what is required. I know what’s needed in the short term and I’m certainly aware of what’s required in the long term. Contrary to what’s been said, I do have a plan. If I need to make drastic changes I’ll just have to explain to the fans that the first four games of the season might be a problem. I’m big enough to take the flak that goes with it. We might lose two of those first four games,” said McCoist.
