Considering Conor Coady.

A move has been explored previously and the player would tick boxes that this squad needs (ability on the ball/leadership). On the other hand, age and athleticism raises questions. Here's what we know.

Rangers' interest in Davide Ancelotti follows a growing trend in football.

Arteta, Alonso, Kompany, Hurzeler... increasingly clubs are hiring coaches not for what they've done in the game, but what they could do. Here's why that could repeat at Ibrox.

Rangers' decision to disband their B team was driven by a desire to invest in U18 group and expose them to cup finals like last night earlier.

Only 3 of last night's starting 11 played in December's cup final. Details on how pathway is changing below.

Rangers win the Glasgow Cup on penalties. A good achievement considering the number of Under-18 players in the team with recent changes to the B team.

Kasanwirjo gets his goal, McCallion and Smith (both 16) impress.

🔻 Rangers are interested in Dundee's Josh Mulligan. 22-yo is out of contract at Dens this summer and on the club's radar.

Capable of playing at full-back or in midfield. Mulligan's viewed as a player with strong physical attributes and potential.

Referee calls and injuries went against Rangers in a #UEL tie where they required luck, but moving Diomande out of midfield showed a deeper issue.

It ends Rangers 0-0 Bilbao but that will feel better than a draw for the hosts. 90 minutes with 10 men, the final 5 with just 9.

Closest Rangers have come to a goal as a Tavernier ball around the corner is hit by Dessers, but Smith saves well. Sterling started the move winning possession well at centre-back.
April 5, 2025 at 2:30 PM
First real chance for Rangers. After Cerny cuts infield, Raskin turns well to release Dessers but the No.9 delays and a shooting opportunity goes.
April 5, 2025 at 2:15 PM
Hibs lead at Ibrox - Dylan Levvit with a strike from range.

Looks like another bad error from Jack Butland. May well have seen it late, but the No.1 sees a shot from outside the box after a set-piece go through him.

Round-up from the weekend's game. What do the numbers say re Dessers' finishing/Butland's performance over course of season and is a deeper role hurting Hamza Igamane? xG, touches in box, goals all down since he's played off the No.9 and not as the No.9.

Cyriel Dessers scores at the 12th attempt to complete Rangers' comeback at Dens. Probably the hardest of the lot too.
