The boss has named his final list with Jefte left out as he closes in on a \u00a36m move awayRussell Martin during a Rangers training session<\/p>\n

Rangers boss Russell Martin<\/a> has made two changes to the squad for the Champions League qualifier against Club Brugge.<\/p>\n

The Ibrox side are looking to navigate the play-off stage for the first time since the 2022\/23 campaign and secure a \u00a340million jackpot.<\/p>\n

Going into the crucial double clash with the Belgian side, Tottenham loanee Mikey Moore has been drafted in and replaced Oscar Cortes.<\/p>\n

The 18-year-old loanee was unable to make the UEFA list for the previous round due to registration issues – but has now been preferred to the Colombian.<\/p>\n

Jefte <\/a>has also been left out of the squad – as he inches closer to a move to Palmeiras<\/a> – with Thelo Aasgaard coming in as the summer recruit from Luton Town ramps up his fitness.<\/p>\n

With Ridvan Yilmaz<\/a> also being left out of the squad, Max Aarons<\/a> could cover at left-back for the games against Brugge.<\/p>\n
