Rangers chairman expects up to five more signings

Rangers chairman Andrew Cavenagh anticipates three to five additional signings before the transfer window closes. The team has already brought nine new players this summer but currently sits with just one point from their first two Scottish Premiership matches under new manager Derek McInnes. The club also lost the first leg of their Europa League third qualifying round tie 2-1 to Polish side Jagiellonia Bialystok.

Cavenagh acknowledged that the business dealings have been "clunky," but they are striving to deliver success. At an open forum in Glasgow, he expressed disappointment with the club's start to the season, stating that he hopes for three to five more players to join. McInnes departed from Rangers amid the team's dismal performance.

The match against Jagiellonia takes place on Thursday, with either Northern Irish champions Larne or Iberia Tbilisi of Georgia set to face the winner in the play-offs. Cavenagh emphasized that they are optimistic about the future and understand their aspirations haven't yet been met.
