Ideal signing

Rangers enjoyed a successful season as they finished runners-up in the Scottish League and most importantly, in the Europa League. Their performances have been largely appreciated by the footballing community.

Considering the strong season they have had, signing a player like Gilmour, they will already have an influential midfielder for years to come.

Considering Gilmour started his professional football career with Rangers and left for the Blues in the summer of 2017 for a fee worth £1.53 million, he would know exactly what the fans’ expectations would be from him and his team.

Rarely do we have players in modern football that play on the pitch like a fan and Gilmour is that kind of footballer and with the Rangers fans backing him, he will only improve.

Talking about the football side, Gilmour has a fantastic passing range that can make him beat the opponent’s press with ease, something which would be ideal for the Gers going into the next season.
