Andrew Cavenagh was grilled by Rangers<\/a> fan groups on the club’s plan for the January window \u2013 revealing they are ‘very active’ and hinted at three planned signings.<\/p>\n

The Ibrox board are tooling up for the back end of a title fight with Hearts and Celtic with Danny Rohl keen to strengthen \u2013 especially after the news that Dujon Sterling and Connor Barron are set for long spells on the sidelines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We understand incomings are imminent with the club set to splash out around \u00a37.5m on a double deal for left-back Tuur Rommens and midfielder Tochi Chukwuani<\/a>. But those may just be the tip of the iceberg.<\/p>\n

Chairman Cavenagh<\/a>, along with CEO Fraser Thornton and other senior board members, met with supporters groups at a round-table on Thursday and the minutes of the sitdown have been shared by the Fan Advisory Board.<\/p>\n

One question asked what their plans are for January, and the minutes from the FAB revealed a left-back, midfield physicality, and creativity in the final third are the top priorities.<\/p>\n

The minutes shared by the FAB read: “In order to make any deal need four entities to agree. Two clubs, player and agent. January window is more difficult. Have to cast a net to understand availability. We are very active in the market. Would have been active regardless of where we are in league. Depth at left-back, strong and physical in midfield. Creation and scoring of goals.”<\/p>\n

Rommens and Chukwuani will tick those first two boxes, but Cavenagh went on to indicate they also plan to recruit players with experience within Scotland. They’ve been heavily linked with James Penrice \u2013 although it’s unclear whether the club will pursue a second left-back now a deal for Rommens is imminent.<\/p>\n

When asked how the strategy for January will change from the summer, the minutes from Cavenagh read: “Weight of the shirt and the challenges and playing for this football club (will be considered). Physical and intensity of the Scottish League. More people involved in the process of what the squad should look like. Scottish players will be looked at. View that a certain percentage of players should come with league or Scottish experience.”<\/p>\n

Cavenagh was also asked if the club plan to involve any former players to ‘help shape the DNA’ of the club. And he said that ‘conversations are ongoing’ and some ‘will have a role to play, whether it be coaching or mentoring players.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cavenagh was quizzed on his plans for the transfer window in minutes shared by the Fan Advisory Board…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":683439,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4100],"tags":[24753,2628,76431,94,47959,1946,37715,79,10107,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-683438","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-andrew-cavenagh","9":"tag-celtic-fc","10":"tag-danny-rohl","11":"tag-football","12":"tag-hearts-fc","13":"tag-rangers-fc","14":"tag-rangers-fc-transfer-news","15":"tag-sports","16":"tag-transfer-talk","17":"tag-uk","18":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115862525990891746","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=683438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683438\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/683439"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=683438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=683438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=683438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
