Michael Beale has been told he does NOT need to make wholesale changes at Rangers with THREE key positions identified.
The Light Blues boss is set for a huge summer overhaul as he bids to put his own stamp on the Glasgow side - and dethrone Celtic and Ange Postecoglou next season. The clear out is underway at Ibrox after the club confirmed that Ryan Kent, Alfredo Morelos, Allan McGregor, Scott Arfield and Filip Helander will leave at the end of the season.
The five stars won't have contracts renewed and are certain to be joined by a number of fringe players in the coming weeks with Beale to have talks over game-time and futures at the club as he makes space for new faces to come into his plans.

Talks over a permanent deal for Malik Tillman are still ongoing with Bayern Munich while the likes of Jack Butland, Auston Trusty, Dujon Sterling, Kieran Dowell, Luis Palma and Morgan Whittaker has all been reported as just some of the potential ins. A new face is expected to be announced at the game with Hearts as the summer ins begin.
But former Ibrox scout Neil Murray doesn't believe it Beale requires too much change.
He told PLZ Soccer: "I think they need a striker to replace Morelos, a winger with pace that can score goals to replace Kent, and a goalkeeper. They're the three key positions.
"After that, you can maybe find players here and there. But does he really need wholesale changes? I don't know. It's difficult to bring 12 players in and mix them up to find a starting 11."
