Two World Cup winners, club record signing and a future boss in £35m splurge – Rangers' biggest transfer window
It was a huge summer of change at Ibrox 27 years ago with Dick Advocaat embarking on a major spending spree Russell Martin is still to make his first signing as Rangers manager and fans are eager to see what kind of quality will come through the door at Ibrox this summer. But imagine the Light Blues recruited a couple of World Cup winners, broke their club record fee and signed a host of international stars? It's a scenario Martin could only dream of given it's changed days at Rangers - but that was very much the reality in the summer of 1998. The Martin revolution will be much lower key than 27 years ago when Dick Advocaat arrived for a revolution not seen down Edmiston Drive since Graeme Souness changed the face of Scottish football just over a decade earlier. It came on the back of the club's first trophyless season in since the campaign before Souness arrived, with Walter Smith stepping down to be replaced by the Dutchman. David Murray opened his cheque book to sign off on the kind of spending spree that would eventually see the club's financial collapse. Almost £35million was spent that season in the days before there was a transfer window. First in was Advocaat's trusted captain at his former club PSV Eindhoven, Arthur Numan (£5m), who only missed out on a place at the World Cup final in France weeks earlier on penalties after a shoot-out defeat to Brazil. Giovanni van Bronckhorst shared a dressing room room with him during the tournament and joined him at Ibrox for the same fee - with flop Peter van Vossen thrown into the deal that brought him from Feyenoord. Rangers made a profit on classy midfielder van Bronckhorst when he was later sold to Arsenal and he of course returned as boss recently. Advocaat revealed the white boots of Gabriel Amato first caught his attention while playing for Real Mallorca and the Argentinian's skills saw him stand out at Rangers but he wasn't used enough to justify his fee (£4.2m). After continually being linked with a move to Rangers, Andrei Kanchelskis (£5.5) finally arrived at Ibrox and it was a then club record fee that brought him from Fiorentina. Andy Goram left big gloves to fill but Lionel Charbonnier (£1.2m) had a World Cup winners' gong in his luggage when he touched down in Glasgow. The eccentric Frenchman was joined later that season by Stephane Guivarc'h (£3.5m) from Newcastle United who was also in that triumphant Les Bleus squad. Yet for all the big money spent that summer, it was perhaps a free transfer who proved the best piece of business - Rod Wallace signing from Leeds United for nothing. The same couldn't be said of the late Daniel Prodan (£2.2m) who never played a first team game with the Romanian's rushed medical a harsh lesson with the defender plagued by a knee injury. Article continues below Murray was keen to keep a Scottish identity amid the influx of foreigners and who better than Braveheart himself? Colin Hendry (£4m) was Scotland captain, having led the nation at the World Cup in France. Neil McCann (£1.2m) added to the tartan contingent when he signed from Hearts in the winter alongside Stefan Klos (£700,000) who went on to become one of Rangers' greatest ever keepers. And even as the Light Blues closed in on a domestic treble that season, they continued to splash the cash with Claudio Reyna (£1.2m) signing from Wolfsburg, Craig Moore (£1m) returning to the club after a brief spell at Crystal Palace and youngster Lee Feeney (£100,000) from Linfield.

Hearts and Aberdeen braced for transfer tussle as Premiership rivals eye Iraq winger
The two clubs have a winger who is impressing in Norway on their radar and they could battle it out for the star Stromsgodset winger Marko Farji is on Hearts' transfer radar - with Scottish Premiership rivals Aberdeen also showing interest. The Jambos are looking to strengthen their attacking options under new boss Derek McInnes and Record Sport revealed they were in for Claudio Braga, while Islam Chesnokov is another who looks set for Gorgie. Farji has turned out for his club 11 times so far this term and despite their struggles - sit 14th in the Norwegian Eliteserien with just two wins from nine - the playmaker has seven goals and three assists in all competitions. Fellow target Braga also plies his trade in Norway in the second division with Aaelsund which appears to signal a desire from the recruitment staff to venture into new territories. Farji, who has been capped twice for Iraq, is under contract with Stromsgodset until 2026 and a six-figure fee would likely be enough to get a deal done. The creative talent is versatile and while he most often operates as a left-winger, he can also play in an attacking midfield position or on the right-flank. With Daniel Arzani's future still up in the air amid interest from Tynecastle, the Australian has suitors in Asia and across Europe so Farji could be an alternative to the ex- Celtic man. It comes as they continue to push for a deal for Stuart Findlay at the back as well as Uchenna Ogundu up top.
