During the January transfer window, Philippe Clement is probably going to be looking at new players since he believes that a few signings could prove to be crucial in the Scottish Premiership title fight.

Particularly if Ridvan Yilmaz manages to secure a move away from Ibrox before the end of the month, as has been heavily suggested in recent weeks, and other players have been brought into the mix, left-back has emerged as an area to improve.

Josh Doig had emerged as a primary target in that area, with the 21-year-old continuing to impress at Hellas Verona in Italy, having joined from Hibernian after being a standout teenage player in the Scottish game at one point. Meanwhile, Liverpool defender Owen Beck has also been linked to join Rangers on loan, having returned to Anfield from a temporary stint at Dundee earlier in the campaign.

Elsewhere, Rangers are reportedly in a three-way battle to sign West Ham defender Ben Johnson, with a January exit for the 23-year-old arguably on the cards. Hearts’ star striker Lawrence Shankland has also been seen as a possible target for the Gers, in what could be an eye-catching signing midway through the season.

Rangers want Cameron Pring
Focus does appear to be on the left-back situation, though, and according to reliable journalist Alan Nixon on Patreon [via Ibrox News], Rangers are weighing up making a move for Bristol City left-back Cameron Pring, as Clement continues to look for a player in that position.

Pring could be exactly what Rangers are after at left-back, with the 25-year-old someone who is both experienced but also still a relatively young footballer. This season, he has started 25 of Bristol City’s 27 Championship matches, chipping in with one goal and two assists, and former manager Nigel Pearson has heaped praise on him, saying:

“Maybe because of his career here so far, he’s been farmed out a number of times on loan, he’s had to work really hard to get back into the system here, but I’m really glad we’ve got him. He’s a good athlete, a really good athlete, and his pace and power is a huge asset of his. I’m pleased that he’s able to hold down a place.”

Pring has now racked up a total of 90 appearances in the Championship, highlighting his experience, and his versatility is a handy weapon that he possesses, being capable of turning out at left-back, centre-back, central midfield and on the left wing.
