Rangers 'crying out' for four signings after Derek McInnes transfer plea
Andy Halliday named the signings Derek McInnes likely wants after Rangers drew against Dundee United on Friday.
The Gers dropped points in their opening game of the 2026-27 campaign at Tannadice on 31 July.
After the 1-1 draw, the Scottish manager urged for further additions to his squad, but didn't specifically mention any numbers or positions.
The Ibrox hierarchy have made eight additions for McInnes this transfer window, but there's still more work to be done.
With the 55-year-old head coach failing to start his career at the Glaswegian outfit on a winning note, fans in G51 have been left disappointed.
The Govan side need to reinforce specific areas of the pitch that lack in quality and depth.
What Derek McInnes will want at Rangers before transfer window ends
Halliday believes there are four signings McInnes will try to make in the coming weeks.
The former Motherwell player expects the Light Blues to add another centre-back to his squad.
With John Souttar asked to find a new club and Ben Godfrey coming off injured at Tannadice, the Glaswegian outfit should look to bolster their defence for the Scottish manager immediately.
Tuur Rommens had a decent game against Dundee United, but the Belgian star lacks any sort of cover in the squad.
What has become abundantly evident is that McInnes must demand the signing of at least two wingers in Govan.
Speaking on BBC Sportsound on 31 July, Halliday said, "He didn't put a number on it. He didn't give the exact positions. But another centre-half, it's another left-back and it's two wingers. Can't be anything other than that because they're absolutely crying out for wide men."

Of the eight signings the Gers have made this transfer window, only Lawrence Shankland can be described as an attacking one.
The rest have come in to bolster the defence or midfield, with the engine room being the focus up until a week ago.
After what was seen at Tannadice, the Light Blues looked like a team that had failed to address their issues in the final third.
Instead of overloading the middle of the park, the Glaswegian outfit should have had a more balanced approach to building their squad over the last few months.
