 The 39-year-old, who joined the club on loan from Bournemouth in 2019 before making the move permanent, scored 32 goals in 76 matches for Rangers and helped them win the Scottish Premiership title last season. 

 Defoe extended his stay at Ibrox in the summer and was added to the then Rangers manager Steven Gerrard's coaching setup as a player-coach. 

 However, following the arrival of Giovanni van Bronckhorst's backroom team, Defoe was backed to play a key role on the pitch with coaches Roy Makaay, former Ajax youth expert Dave Vos, Yori Bosschaart and Arno Phillps joining Rangers. 

 Meanwhile, van Bronckhorst is set to recall fellow striker Cedric Itten from his loan at German club Greuther Furth. 

 The Swiss international left on a season-long loan on deadline day but Rangers are exercising their option to cut that deal short this month. 

 Itten, who arrived at Ibrox from St Gallen in 2020, scored two goals in 12 games for the newly promoted Bundesliga side.
