Rangers' McInnes faces questions over Kim's utilization in attack

Summary

Rangers, under manager Derek McInnes, made significant investments this summer to strengthen their squad, including the signing of Minsu Kim from Girona for £8.5 million. Kim, a 20-year-old winger, has yet to score or assist in 10 appearances across competitions this season. Despite his struggles, experts believe his market value could exceed £20 million if his performance increases. Analysts commend McInnes for using Kim effectively as an inverted winger, although there are concerns about his finishing and need for a managed workload. Rangers aim for an upturn in results with Kim shaping up as a key figure moving forward.
