Last week I said there would be 4 announcements. One of them I said might not be on the park and it was announced.
Trust me the signings will be announced very soon, however there is an agenda and there was delays.
Rangers need to maximise every announcement as much as possible from social media to the media. World cup and Derek being on holiday delayed things a little.
We also had the announcement of our new kit.
Announcements will be made next week but please remember in some cases we are waiting on players contracts officially ending, majority is start of July.

This might fall in line with the 'Nike' and 'Red Bull' sponsors I've been told about.
25 Jun 2026 12:40:26
You're 100% right about the social media. We could have 4 signings done, they will never announce all at once, would rather optimise as much likes and views on social media, spread over days.
25 Jun 2026 12:43:02
Any idea of names or positions WATP? Cheers for the info. ??

What's been heard about Nike/Red Bull Ayrshire?
I think it's commonly thought that eventually that's the route we will go down but it can't be announced while we have current sponsors and shirt suppliers. Not sure when unibet ends but shirt deal is 2030 unfortunately unless buy outs are in pipeline but again I can't see us doing announcements on anything like that while we are trying to sell current things

AyrshireTattooist, are you hearing lately about Rangers possibly announcing nike as our new kit manufacturers and red bull as our new front shirt sponsors mate ?
25 Jun 2026 13:19:22
Can't happen while we have current deals in place, not to say Red Bull can't afford to buy out Unibet, which wouldn't be a bad thing as it's a honking sponsor and ruins the new home top!

Ayrshire, I read and heard about this months ago too and posted it on here but got slaughtered for it lol. EHL and the usual suspects said it wasn't true. But I know what I read. Stand by being told it recently too. Glad you've heard the same.

John WRF - I mentioned the positions in my last post. Remember, all this credit is for my friend ITK, not me.
I am the stadium go to, however, if there was any news about Red Bull, me and my friend would have heard about it.

Certainly can't give any time frames on this one. But I know that AC is looking to buy out of our current kit deals and move in another direction.
25 Jun 2026 13:26:56
There will be a clause from both ends regarding sponsorship and kit manufacturing.
25 Jun 2026 13:51:39
WATP, cheers lad. ??
25 Jun 2026 15:07:17
Hope they get it right if they do buy it out. Could do without any court cases.
Can't see it though. It wouldn't make sense on either side. Red Bull could be good.
25 Jun 2026 15:18:28
Didn't Umbro sign the deal when AC was in charge?
25 Jun 2026 15:24:58
The right back has just been announced in fairness.
25 Jun 2026 15:33:17
Announcements made next week and one happens couple of hours later. ?
25 Jun 2026 15:33:36
Castore bought Umbro, I'm pretty sure, hence why we're getting kits manufactured by them.
25 Jun 2026 16:47:16
I just don't see the logic in the story about changing kit manufacturer and sponsor a week after the new kit is launched and people have already bought it. Imagine the uproar from fans who have already paid £85 for both home and away kits only for it not to be the one we play in.
Personally, think if that was going to have happened.
Kit registration needs to be with SFA 14 days before start of season, so they have a tight deadline if there is truth in this. ?

Rangers and Castore have a merchandising agreement that runs until 2030. However, under this broader Castore partnership, Rangers are supplied by Umbro. Castore secured the exclusive sub-license for Umbro Professional Team Sports in the UK, allowing them to rebrand the team's apparel with the Umbro double-diamond.
Castore owns the rights to the Umbro brand in the UK and several other European markets, so while Rangers are officially wearing Umbro, the deal remains within the Castore corporate network.
Supplied by T'internet. ??
Already been thru all this several times.
25 Jun 2026 18:01:37
I'll be honest, guys, I like Umbro as our kit manufacturers and wouldn't mind one bit at all if we remain with them for a while. ? Although money, of course, will dictate this, and we may change when the deal is up in 2030. ?
25 Jun 2026 18:15:05
Storm, in all fairness, I was told by my friend it was Monday.
I said there would be an announcement off the park - done.
I said the position next would be a RB - done.
2 more to be announced - I was told next week, but you never know.
My info in general is solid.
25 Jun 2026 18:18:56
I haven't been following that, Fork. Very useful information, thank you.
