Arthur Numan has told Giovanni van Bronckhorst to sell his Hampden duds in the January transfer window.

Ibrox transfer guru Ross Wilson has tried and failed to shift any stars during four transfer windows while the wage bill ballooned with losses reaching £23.5m for the year to 30 June 2021.

Steven Gerrard whinged about the lack of transfer funds before jumping on a train to London with van Bronckhorst picking up the pieces with 11 critical matches before the winter break on January 2.

Discussing the issues facing his former team-mate, Numan told The Sun:

Rangers is about winning silverware regularly. If you don’t have the hunger or desire to do that, then you should be asked to leave or be sold on.

All it needed from our players was to get a goal at any stage during the second half and then we would have had Hibs on the ropes. We could have easily got an equaliser.

Remember, we were playing a Hibs team who hadn’t played since last month and last won a game on September 26. It wasn’t Bayern or Chelsea we were playing.

Giovanni must now get to work and he will be looking for much more on Thursday night at home to Sparta Prague. Then it’s Livingston on Sunday.

The regular silverware that Numan mentioned is one trophy in nine years. Over the last couple of years Hibs twice, Aberdeen twice, Hearts, Motherwell, St Johnstone and St Mirren have ended hopes of winning a domestic cup competition.

    Does numan not realise that they can’t sell, nobody wants them and him and their new manager should realise there is no money

    They should wind that klub down and sell the lot..
    That space could be used for amenities which would greatly benefit those who live in the surrounding area.
    Any other business that posted losses like that since sevco started up would have been shut down years ago, what an embarrassment to Scottish football..!!

    How many companies in Scotland are run with such losses ?
