Rangers International has concluded negotiations and the signing of three players to enhance the team’s robust squad for the upcoming season.
Following a triumphant season where they won the league title, the club has bolstered their lineup by adding three players, midfielders and an attacker.
Tekena, a midfield maestro, joins from Bayelsa United, while attacking sensation Anayor Ogbonna has signed on from relegated Gombe United.
Additionally, the 2023/2024 NPFL champions secured the signature of teenage defensive midfield prodigy, Nwobodo Somtochukwu, who previously played for Enugu State League finalists, F.C. Inter of Enugu.
Elated at the opportunity presented by the champions, Somtochukwu expressed his gratitude and determination: “This is a big opportunity that I have been waiting for, and I will do my best to convince the coaches to give me playing time in the star-studded team that is being put together to defend the domestic league and excel on the continent. I thank my coaches and teammates at F.C Inter for making me a better player to be spotted by a big side like Rangers.”
Rangers CEO, Amobi Ezeaku, commented on the latest acquisitions: “Just as it is in the club’s philosophy, this is another great signing for us and it goes a long way to encourage young talents that abound the nook and crannies of the state to keep working hard for opportunities to join Rangers and showcase their God-given talents. The scouting team has followed Somtochukwu and coaches over time and, has shown he has what it takes to make it at the big stage.”
The NPFL 2024/2025 season will resume on August 31, 2024.
