The Ibrox club will be determined to regain the Scottish Premiership title after letting their grasp on the trophy slip through their fingers last term.
The Light Blues also have Champions League qualifiers to overcome before reaching the group stage, so Van Bronckhorst will be actively looking to strengthen his first-team squad.
