Jack Butland sends Rangers fans two-word message as transfer news emerges
Jack Butland has sent Rangers fans a two-word message after his official transfer to the club.
As confirmed by the official Rangers Twitter account, the goalkeeper has signed a four-year contract with the Gers.
He will join the Ibrox outfit from Crystal Palace on 1 July after signing a pre-contract with the Scottish outfit.
Butland spent last season on loan from the Eagles at fellow English Premier League club Manchester United.
Taking to Instagram to share his delight at joining Rangers, Butland wrote: “Let’s go.”
Fantastic signing
Rangers manager Michael Beale is getting the ball rolling early this summer, with the boss now securing three players for next season before the summer transfer window has even opened.
The pre-contract agreement for Butland follows the pre-contract agreements for Dujon Sterling and Kieran Dowell, who will join from Chelsea and Norwich City respectively.
Their signings have excited fans, but it may be the signature of Butland that has got Rangers supporters off their seats the most so far, with the goalkeeper arriving with a great reputation.
He didn’t get any game time last season with the Red Devils, but the shot-stopper has proven himself time and again in the Premier League, firstly with Stoke City and then with Crystal Palace.
The goalkeeper also has nine England caps to his name, with that number potentially rising over the coming years if he can really hit the ground running at Ibrox.
In other Rangers news, the Gers have made a “significant” seven-figure bid for one European-based striker.
