• Five summer signings have been completed and the squad is set to change further as the manager plans both arrivals and departures before competitive fixtures begin.
• Martin would not rule out a move for veteran striker Jamie Vardy, describing transfer discussions as ongoing and unconfirmed.
• A £3.5 million offer from AEK Athens for Cyriel Dessers was rejected as Rangers maintain a higher valuation and retain confidence in their forward options.
• Rangers will host Panathinaikos on July 22 in the Champions League second qualifying round as preparations intensify under the new regime.
