So far this week, Rangers Football Club has generated interest by making a fabulous move that’s apparently on loan. To address that, they’ve signed young Spurs midfielder Mikey Moore on loan. The 20-year-old prospect completes the move to the Ibrox club, as they prepare for a pivotal season. With a difficult Liga schedule and a key Champions League qualifier coming up, that’s a tall order. Rangers are trying to establish themselves in the Scottish Premiership under new coach Russell Martin. They’re looking to bounce back after a subpar year a season ago.
Moore’s signing is the second notable addition to a talented squad that has otherwise been relatively quiet in the transfer market this summer. As the new season approaches, Rangers supporters can allow themselves a rare sense of optimism. They view Celtic’s low-key transfer window as an opportunity to finally close the gap on their arch-rivals.
Rangers Make Strategic Moves

Chris Sutton raised the bar in terms of expectations for Martin’s role. He underlined the huge pressure of overseeing one of the largest clubs on the planet.
“As soon as you become the manager of Rangers or Celtic, you’re always going to be under pressure.”

That build-up and the hope to see something special only serves to electrify an atmosphere that’s already crackling with excitement.
Challenges Ahead
