Rangers experienced another turnover during the summer transfer, as former head coach Russell Martin allowed a host of players to depart Ibrox as he reshaped his struggling squad.
Hamza Igamane, Cyriel Dessers, and Vaclav Cerny all left for pastures new in pre-season. However, Martin was unable to revive the club’s fortunes in the early throws of the campaign and found himself sacked after just one win in his opening seven league games in charge of the club.
Long-serving players such as Leon Balogun, Tom Lawrence, and Ianis Hagi also waved goodbye to the Glasgow giants upon the expiry of their contracts in the summer. Many of the club’s youngsters went out to gain valuable experience on loan.
Here we look at the 22 Rangers players who moved away from the club before the start of the new campaign, and assess how they have done for their new teams in the first half of the season. Who has found success away from Ibrox - and who regrets their decision to leave?
13. Ridvan Yilmaz - Besiktas

14. Neraysho Kasanwirjo - Molde (loan)
The versatile Dutch defender had his time at Rangers largely ruined by a serious knee injury that meant he played just 15 times following his loan move from Feyenoord. To regain match fitness, Kasanwirjo moved on loan once again this summer, joining Norwegian outfit Molde. The 23-year-old started just four games for the side last season, though, as they finished in a lowly 10th place. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
15. Hamza Igamane - Lille
Left Ibrox in acrimonious circumstances in the summer, signing a big-money deal at Lille. While he has largely been used as a substitute, he has made a positive impact in Ligue 1, scoring five goals. Currently out with a muscle injury. | AFP via Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
16. Oscar Cortes - Sporting Gijon (loan)
Has really struggled in the Spanish second tier, starting just one game at El Molinón. Has reiterated his desire to fight for his place, but there have been murmurs that the club could cut his stay short in the January window. | DANIEL MUNOZ Photo: DANIEL MUNOZ
