Ross Wilson leaves Rangers for Nottingham Forest

Rangers sporting director Ross Wilson has left the club to join Nottingham Forest.

The Premier League side agreed a compensation deal for the 39-year-old to take him south of the border.

The 39-year old joined the Ibrox side in October 2019 and replaces Filippo Giraldi at the City Ground.

Rangers chairman John Bennett told the club's official website: “I would like sincerely to thank Ross for his enormous contribution to the development of Rangers both on and off the pitch.

“While we have enjoyed silverware and excellent European progress during his time, his legacy will be the development of the Rangers Training Centre into a top-class environment, and the integration and success of our women’s programme."

As he departed the club, Ross Wilson added: “I would like to thank the players, led superbly by captain James Tavernier, and the manager Michael Beale, as well as all those who have come before them in the three and a half years I have spent at Rangers.

"I would like to thank Douglas Park, Stewart Robertson and the Board for their support. I wish John Bennett - a true Rangers man - a successful chairmanship. This is a great club, and there are so many reasons for Rangers to face the decades ahead with optimism and pride.

“Thank you for your support. I wish everyone associated with Rangers nothing but the best for the future.”
