DOUBLE DEAL CONFIRMED: Russell Martins Express Delight as Rangers Announce Two More Summer Signings – Gers Set to Welcome These New Faces at Ibrox

Russell Martin Expresses Delight as Rangers Announce Two More Summer Signings

Russell Martin’s Ibrox revolution continues at pace as Rangers confirmed the arrival of two more fresh faces in what is fast becoming a significant summer of transition for the Glasgow giants.

The club’s new manager has wasted little time in stamping his authority on the squad, with the latest additions taking the number of summer signings into double figures as Martin seeks to mould a side capable of dethroning Celtic and reclaiming domestic supremacy.

Speaking after the latest deals were confirmed, Martin said he was thrilled with the club’s recruitment efforts so far, stating:

“I’m absolutely delighted with the way things are progressing. We’ve brought in players with real quality and character — guys who fit the culture we’re trying to build here. We’re not just signing names; we’re building a team.”

The two new signings – both of whom are expected to be key contributors this season – arrive as part of a clearly defined recruitment strategy, with an emphasis on technical ability, tactical flexibility and hunger to improve. While the club has yet to formally unveil the duo’s full profiles, both signings are believed to have been identified through a meticulous scouting process that Martin has been deeply involved in.

The former Southampton boss, known for his progressive style of football, has already outlined the need for sharpness in possession, fluidity in transitions and intensity without the ball – all of which are traits reflected in the new recruits.

“This isn’t just about quantity; we’ve targeted players who are going to raise the standard in training and on matchdays,” Martin added.

“The lads who’ve come in so far have hit the ground running, and I can see the existing players responding positively too. There’s a real energy around the place.”

There is also a noticeable shift in tone around Ibrox following Martin’s appointment. After a turbulent 2024/25 campaign that saw Rangers once again finish behind their city rivals, there is a renewed focus and a clear message that underperformance will no longer be tolerated.

Martin’s determination to reshape the squad has been backed by the Rangers board, who are understood to be supporting a significant rebuild in terms of both personnel and infrastructure. Club sources have hinted that further signings could still arrive, particularly in midfield and at full-back, as Martin fine-tunes his options ahead of the new campaign.

Supporters, too, are beginning to show signs of cautious optimism. While there is acknowledgment that success won’t come overnight, the early signs under Martin’s leadership are encouraging. His clear communication, demanding standards and modern approach appear to have struck the right note at a club that craves both identity and silverware.

With pre-season now in full swing and the first competitive fixtures looming, all eyes will be on how quickly Martin’s new-look Rangers side can gel. But if the early flurry of transfer activity is anything to go by, this is a manager with a clear vision – and the backing to make it a reality.
