Rangers make final Philippe Clement sack decision as needless £30m transfer possible for skipper.
The Belgian manager wants transfer changes as he faces losing key players in the summer;
the loan signing of Fabio Silva is the club’s only January addition so far
While lamenting the “crazy situation” in which five Rangers players are out of contract in the summer,
Philippe Clement has acknowledged that he hopes to see an improved transfer strategy at the team.
