Michael Beale admits Rangers are NO closer to any deals at this moment in time with the transder deadline looming.
The Light Blues has made one signing to date in the shape of Norwich City midfielder Todd Cantwell. He penned a long-term deal at Ibrox last week and was handed an instant debut from the start in his first appearance since November. The Ibrox boss has made it clear over the positions he would like to target with a midfielder that 'strengthens and creates more competition'.
Nicolas Raskin from Standard Liege is one that is moving closer and closer according to reports in his homeland. However, Morgan Whittaker from Swansea City has been ruled out, with the attacker looking set to stay put with the English Championship side in this window. Nothing is imminent in Govan with Beale declaring he wants players arriving for the long-term and to make his side stronger NOW. Speaking in his pre-match media conference for the midweek clash at Hearts, Beale said: "No closer on deals at the moment, as soon as any updates in the next 24 hrs we will make you aware.
