Barry Ferguson reckons the next TWO transfer windows are crucial for Rangers.
The Ibrox legend concedes January is a difficult time for recruitment as it is mainly players heading out of contract - like Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent - or those who are out of favour and not playing as may minutes as they'd like at their own clubs. The Light Blues face what the former skipper describes as a 'sizeable rebuild' and the club must step it up a notch or two starting from January 1.
Rangers are trailing rivals Celtic by nine points at the Premiership summit with boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst feeling the heat after a string of poor results and performances. Injuries have not helped the cause with key men like Connor Goldson and Tom Lawrence long-term absentees for the Ibrox men. Ferguson has called on Rangers to use the World Cup break for some soul searching and then come back and show that they are not going down in the race for top spot without a 'hell of a fight'.
