Michael Beale wants to tie down Ryan Jack to a new Rangers deal.
The midfielder is one of a number of stars including Ryan Kent and Alfredo Morelos who are out of contract in the summer and could start speaking to interested clubs come January 1 about a pre-contract agreement. The 30-year-old was handed a spot in the starting team to face Hibs and also got on the scoresheet in the five-goal thriller under the lights at Ibrox.
New Rangers boss Beale says naming the midfielder in his first starting side shows exactly what he thinks of the Ibrox star. He says he is part of the Light Blues' best eleven at this time as he offered his strongest hint yet that he's set for a run in the side. Talks are yet to get underway between both parties, but it is something the new boss wants to get done. He said: "In playing Ryan in the first game and him scoring against Hibs, he is doing everything he can. But obviously I showed what I think of Ryan by selecting him in my first game.
