The Rangers boss stated ‘With the expected start of the 2020/2021 football season in a few weeks’ time (Covid-19 Pandemic allowing), the management of multiple Nigeria league and challenge cup champions, Rangers International F.C have sounded it clear that the team are set to challenge on all fronts.’
“I am sincerely glad about the way we are going about our preparations for the fast-approaching football season. Our coaching crew is at work and will soon come up with a list of players retained and those that will bid us bye for the season.
