Chris Jack expects at least three midfielders to leave Rangers for good in the summer transfer window.
While bringing in new midfielders is not at the top of Danny Rohl’s priority list this season, he knows that he may have to sign replacements should some of the players at the club leave.
There will also be unplanned exits, as such is the nature of the transfer window, meaning Rangers will have to prepare.

Chris Jack expects Nicolas Raskin, Mohamed Diomande and Jose Cifuentes to leave
In his Rangers Review article, Jack has claimed that Nicolas Raskin, Mohamed Diomande and Jose Cifuentes are all likely to leave Ibrox for good this summer.
He claims that Cifuentes will be made surplus to requirements following his loan spell at Toronto FC.
The MLS outfit had the option to sign him permanently as the option was included in his loan deal, but they opted against it.
The midfielder played 17 games for the club before suffering a knee injury, and that setback could be the reason why they decided not to sign him permanently.
With Raskin and Diomande, both players are entering the final two years of their contracts, giving the club the chance to cash in on them.
Even though there are no immediate transfer links, Jack expects the duo to leave along with Cifuentes.
Nicolas Raskin has been linked with a Rangers exit…
How much can Rangers realistically get for Raskin?
The World Cup can benefit a club a great deal, as it can inflate the valuation of a player significantly.
Should Raskin have a good competition in North America, the Gers can expect to field more offers than they otherwise would have for the Belgium international.
Currently, the Light Blues will value the 25-year-old at around £25m, but post the World Cup, that could rise to £35m as well.
There has been Premier League interest in the past for the midfielder, and they could decide to make bids at the end of July or the start of August.
It does make sense for the Gers to have replacements ready as they cannot rely on Raskin to stay unless he explicitly gives them his word.
