Rangers have 10 players out of contract next summer - and Giovanni van Bronckhorst says he doesn't want to bring in that amount of fresh faces.
Alfredo Morelos, Ryan Kent, Filip Helander, Ryan Jack, Scott Arfield, Steven Davis, Allan McGregor and Kieran Wright all have their deals expire next summer while James Sands and Malik Tillman have their loan deals expiring, although there are options to buy. The Dutchman's side face St Johnstone on Sunday and could trail Celtic by seven points in the Premiership title race. Van Bronckhorst has addressed the situation but is not wanting to complete a radical Rangers overhaul.
He said: "We have 10 players out of contract or end of loan so if they don’t extend or aren’t there then that’s 10 players you have to replace. You want to develop a team but I don’t know what’s happening with the players. We could have 10 new players coming in next season which means you have to gel and develop a team.

"We have to wait and see how the team will look. It’s football. Players are out of contract so you don’t decide their future - it’s in their own hands.
"It could be 10 or less. It depends how the coming months go but we have a lot of players out of contract.
“I hope I don’t have to find 10 new players next summer but it’s football. Players go out of contract so you’re not deciding their future. So it could be 10 or it could be less depending on how the next months go.”
