So maybe that would reduce the options for anybody that Danny Rohl will be interested in. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I don\u2019t think it\u2019d be a priority for him right now to go back and maybe sign some players from Sheffield Wednesday. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"

think the squad is obviously very stretched at minute at Wednesday and a lot of young players as well in that squad that they\u2019ve needed to play because the squad is so thin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo Danny Rohl will be looking elsewhere if he is to strengthen that Rangers squad in January.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rangers make January transfer plan under Danny Rohl<\/p>\n<p><strong>Football
