Captain James Tavernier announced last month that he would be leaving Rangers after 11 years.
The 34-year old’s time at the club ended in rather acrimonious circumstances and controversy after a fall out with boss Danny Rohl.
Loanees Mikey Moore, Max Aarons and Nasser Djiga will be among the high profile players to move on too.
But there are certain to be further permanent departures from the club too.

The first of those has now been confirmed.
Goalkeeper Kieran Wright joined the club as a 10-year old 17 years ago.
He progressed all the way to the first team and signed his first professional contract in 2016.
Despite being in and around the first team for a decade, Wright failed to make a single first team appearance for the Gers.

He had several loan spells away from Ibrox, including stints at Livingston, Airdrieonians, Partick Thistle and Raith.
Wright finished the current campaign on loan at Kilmarnock with the Rugby Park outfit dealing with an injury crisis in the goalkeeper position.
Wright, 27, signed a one-year contract extension last summer and was third choice behind Jack Butland and Liam Kelly.
But there will be no new deal this time around with Wright confirming he’s leaving Rangers.
Posting on Instagram, Wright said: “I joined Rangers as a 10 year old boy, and after 17 years at the club, it’s time to part ways.
“I was fortunate enough to be part of so many unforgettable moments, meet some truly amazing people, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
“But all good things must come to an end.
“Thank you for everything.“
Teammates Jack Butland, Connor Barron and Findlay Curtis were among those to wish Wright well.
