Rangers new signings: Confirmed ins and outs for January 2026

After vowing to give the fans ‘a team they can be proud of’ in the summer, things could not have gone much worse for Russell Martin during his tenure at Rangers. 

The former Southampton boss led his Gers side to the worst start in the club's history, and he paid the price with the sack, just two months into the new season, after a barrage of abuse from the club's supporters.

While a lot of the blame has been put down to Martin's tactics, there is also an acceptance that the club got it horribly wrong in the summer transfer window. Let us take a look at their January business in greater detail below as they tried to make amends.

Rangers new signings January 2026

Ryan Naderi (Hansa Rostock)

Rangers signed striker Ryan Naderi from German side Hansa Rostock for around £5m.

Naderi signing grade: C

The amount of money invested in Naderi was always going to be a risk, and so far he has been unable to fire the Gers up to the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Tochi Chukwuani (Sturm Graz)

Tochi Chukwuani was signed from Austrian side Sturm Graz for around £4m.

Chukwuani signing grade: C

While Chukwuani has added depth in midfield, it was still a significant outlay on him.

Tuur Rommens (Westerlo)

Tuur Rommens was signed from Belgian side Westerlo for around £3m.

Rommens signing grade: C

Rommens has come in at left-back, but Rangers are still leaking goals that are costing them points.

Andreas Skov Olsen (Wolfsburg)

Andreas Skov Olsen signed on loan from Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.

Skov Olsen signing grade: B

Skov Olsen has already played at a high level, and was a talented acquisition by Rangers.

Rangers transfer window rating: Grade C

While Rangers spent big in January, there are still doubts over whether the new signings have made a big enough impact as they continue to battle with Hearts and Celtic in the Scottish Premiership title race. They also lost some squad depth, which could cost them should they pick up a few injuries.
