A “\u00a320m net spend” has improved Rangers “across all parts of the team”, insists sporting director Kevin Thelwell, who is sure a summer of big changes will bear fruit, despite a sticky start to the season.<\/b><\/p>\n
Head coach Russell Martin has won just three of his first 11 matches, with Sunday’s Old Firm stalemate making it four successive Premiership draws.<\/p>\n
With backing from the club’s new American investors, 14 players have been signed, with strikers Cyriel Dessers and Hamza Igamane among a long list of departures.<\/p>\n
“I’m pleased with the business that we’ve done,” Thelwell told RangersTV. “There’s a nice balance within the group.<\/p>\n
“We have young, hungry players that can help us now but can also develop, and we have brought in some senior players that should help the group chemistry.<\/p>\n
“In my view, we’ve improved the group across all parts of the team and now it’s about getting down to work.”<\/p>\n
Rangers received fees for Igamane and Dessers, along with Jefte, Ridvan Yilmaz and Robin Propper, but Thelwell explained that those pale in comparison to the money invested in the squad.<\/p>\n
“I think it’s a circa \u00a320m net spend, which is a big number in our concept,” he said.<\/p>\n
“Fans should see that in a positive way. It sends a clear message about what we want to do and that the ownership are committed to building a stronger team.”<\/p>\n
Thelwell is confident the club has “traded well in this period”, while adding that “you can’t expect ownership to spend year-on-year in that way.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
