Rangers have rejected a series of loan bids for Leon King as Premiership rivals St Mirren reportedly eye a short-term deal for Ibrox starlet Alex Lowry.
The Gers are looking at the futures of several players on Deadline Day as the likes of Nicolas Raskin come into the club with more signings still potentially on the horizon.
Should more reinforcements come into the club it might have others on the fringes needing to move on to get more game-time and Ibrox talents Leon King and Alex Lowry fall into that category.
But despite the returning figures of Connor Goldson and Ben Davies at the heart of the defence, Rangers have held firm amid serious loan interest in Ibrox starlet Leon King.
Teenage centre-back King was thrust into the Ibrox limelight earlier in the season amid a devastating run of injuríes which saw the club without their two first choice centre-halves as well as Filip Helander and John Souttar.
