Jermain Defoe is set to leave Rangers after just two appearances this season.

The 39-year-old, who joined the club on loan from Bournemouth, scored 32 goals in 76 matches for Rangers and helped them win the Scottish title last season.

This is the 300th goal of Defoe in club football.

In the summer, Steven Gerrard added Defoe to his coaching staff as a player-coach.

Roy Makaay, Dave Vos, Yori Bosschaart, and Arno Phillps joined Rangers, and were given the responsibility of playing a key role on the pitch.

Itten will be recalled for a loan.

Itten has two goals in his loan at Greuther Furth.

Van Bronckhorst is going to recall Itten from his loan at Greuther Furth.

Rangers have the option to cut the deal short this month, but they decided to keep the Swiss player.

Itten scored two goals in 12 games for the newly promoted Bundesliga side.

In December, Morelos scored four league goals.

Morelos was named the player of the month for December.

Rangers won all of their games last month, and four of the goals scored by the Colombian came in the league.

Rangers maintained their six-point lead at the top of the table after Morelos scored the winner against St Mirren.

Moore said that the title bid has been strengthened by Van Bronckhorst.

Since taking over at Rangers, Giovanni van Bronckhorst has won every match.

Craig Moore, a former Rangers defender, thinks the team's hopes of retaining the Scottish title have improved since van Bronckhorst arrived.

The club entered the knockout stages of the Europa League under the leadership of the Dutchman.

"I think sometimes in football timing works, Steven Gerrard got that opportunity to go down south and Rangers now have the opportunity and they've brought in Giovanni van Bronckhorst," he said.

He knows the football club and has experience with success at the club.

I think the changes he's made to the team have been clear. You won't see both full-backs bombing at the same time.
