Glasgow Rangers face a particularly necessary few weeks forward, with Ross Wilson changing the sacked Giovanni van Bronckhorst with a supervisor who can convey the Premiership title again to Ibrox.
The frontrunner seems to be Mick Beale, who has earlier expertise on the membership having been the primary group coach below Steven Gerrard between 2018 and 2021 and he actually is aware of the Light Blues inside out.
Will Beale be given funds to strengthen in January, nevertheless? That is the important thing query and most of the Ibrox devoted are demanding some contemporary faces forward of an important second half of the season.
One identify that ought to be delivered to Rangers is Lyndon Dykes, who has scored six targets below Beale’s tutelage within the English Championship this season and he could possibly be the perfect Alfredo Morelos alternative in consequence.
The Gers have been linked with Dykes again in January this yr, nevertheless, with Morelos, who has solely scored three targets this time period, out of contract in the summertime and no talks of an extension, the brand new supervisor will want some attacking reinforcements.
The Colombian was even branded “lazy” by former Light Blues striker Ally McCoist stay on BT Sport when Rangers performed Borussia Dortmund final season and this time period hasn’t been the best for the 26-year-old in comparison with his regular excessive requirements.
Dykes, however, can be the proper foil for Antonio Colak. The 27-year-old isn’t a pure finisher just like the Croatian, however his build-up play is great and he may kind an attention-grabbing partnership with the membership’s top scorer this season.
That’s to not say he can’t chip in with some necessary contributions himself, with John Eustace claiming Dykes has a knack for netting “all kinds of goals” and this could possibly be invaluable for the Glasgow facet.
There are only some weeks left till the January switch window opens, and with Wilson aiming to get the brand new supervisor in lengthy earlier than then, there will probably be no excuses to not add some new expertise to the first-team squad.
