# Rangers: Michael Beale says multiple prospective signings are ‘very keen to come’

**[Glasgow Rangers](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/) manager Michael Beale has revealed that several prospective signings have admitted that they are ‘very keen to come’ to Ibrox.**

### The Lowdown: Instant impact

The [Scottish Premiership](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/scottish-premiership-news/) boss has made an unbeaten start to life in Glasgow, winning four and drawing one of his [five](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/michael-beale/leistungsdatenDetail/trainer/36468/plus/0?saison_id=&verein_id=124&liga=&wettbewerb_id=&trainer_id=) games in charge since joining back in November.

The Light Blues still find themselves [nine](https://www.skysports.com/scottish-premier-table) points off rivals Celtic at the top of the table, but could have a strong end to the season should they make the right additions this month, and the 42-year-old has dropped an exciting transfer hint.

### The Latest: Beale’s comments

Speaking during his Dundee United pre-match press conference, Beale admitted that he’s already held discussions with some of his winter targets and the chances of them putting pen to paper sound extremely positive. Quoted by [BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/64187426.amp), he said:

“Our phone’s not stopped – there are a lot of players interested in coming here.

“I think three or four of the right additions can pull everything together in the right direction.

“We’ve got a free week leading into the semi-final with Aberdeen \[on January 15\] so it gives me more time to do things.

“The two or three players that I’ve spoken to are very keen to come – and sooner rather than later. Same on our side.

“But I’ve got to make sure they’re the right ones. I’m a little bit fussy. It’s all right doing something over Zoom but I want to sit in front of a player and look in his eyes.

“When we’re recruiting, we’re recruiting for really specific roles. It’s not just about a collection of players coming in. I want a player that does a very specific job because I think that’s what we need.”

### The Verdict: Attractive outfit

Rangers probably wouldn’t have been the most appealing option under Giovanni van Bronckhorst, but since Beale’s arrival, they have become a lot more of an attractive prospect.

The Teddy Bears manager has predominantly been using a [4-3-3](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/michael-beale/leistungsdatenDetail/trainer/36468/plus/0?saison_id=&verein_id=124&liga=&wettbewerb_id=&trainer_id=) formation, which so far has proven to be a winning formula and a system that a lot of players will easily be able to adapt to.

Beale has also recently won the Manager of the Month [award](https://www.rangers.co.uk/article/michael-beale-named-manager-of-the-month/5K2XZdmC2ph8srSmnUBqTS#:~:text=MICHAEL%20BEALE%20has%20today%20been,over%20a%20busy%20festive%20period.) for December, so the opportunity to work under him will surely only make targets even keener to sign on the dotted line.
