Chris Sutton instantly reacts as Rangers agree blockbuster terms for Ibrox arrival
Chris Sutton has spoken out after Rangers edged closer to confirming a new arrival.
The Gers are destined for a busy summer after the confirmation of the 49ers and Andrew Cavenagh’s takeover in the past week.
The American consortium are bound to want to put their stamp on the Ibrox club to help push them forward after years of frustration.
It now appears that the recently arrived owners are set to make their impact felt as Sutton shared his direct reaction via social media.
Sutton speaks out on Rangers agreement
There is little surprise that the 52-year-old is having his say on the Light Blues despite not being a supporter himself.
This has been the case throughout a disappointing season at Govan, particularly with Celtic running away with the Scottish Premiership title once again.
| Position | Club | Games played | Goal difference | Points |
| 1. | Celtic | 38 | +86 | 92 |
| 2. | Rangers | 38 | +39 | 75 |
Things could be about to change moving into the new campaign with the Gers set to name a new manager in the coming days.
Russell Martin has reportedly agreed to terms to become the head coach and make a return to Govan seven years after his playing stint in G51.
This has left many supporters excited, given his distinct playing style from his days in charge of MK Dons, Swansea City and Southampton.
As a result, it is little surprise that Sutton has made a comment via X (4 June) in the immediate aftermath of developments breaking at Ibrox.
He said: “Rangers are actually going to try and play some football…”
Martin could transform Rangers as manager
There is no doubt that the 39-year-old knows exactly how he wants his side to set up and operate when he’s in the dugout.
A quick and short passing style, starting from the goalkeeper and moving forward, was effective in the English Championship and could be replicated in the Scottish Premiership.
This could help get the best out of the likes of many players at Ibrox, with the hope of proving himself to Paraag Marathe and Cavenagh at the beginning of their reign.
An official announcement is bound to follow, featuring news of Martin’s coaching staff, who will hopefully look to “play some football”, as Sutton puts it.
