After weeks of rumours, it has finally been confirmed that Castore will be Glasgow Rangers’ kit manufacturer from next season.
It had initially been reported a few weeks back, but the Emergency General Meeting and their attempt to see an investigation into the SPFL have dominated the headlines recently. However, early on Sunday morning, the deal was confirmed by the club themselves.

According to The Athletic journalist Jordan Campbell, the deal will be worth £25m over several years, whilst the Four Lads Had a Dream Twitter page say that it could well be the biggest deal in the country in the future if the many incentives are met. It will only be a matter of time before current kit suppliers Hummel become a distant memory.

These ‘Gers fans seem to be delighted with the new partnership – one supporter called it an “incredible deal” while another hailed the club’s commercial and marketing director James Bisgrove. They have taken to Twitter to share their thoughts and you can see some of the best comments below:

Heavy financial incentives for the club on merchandise and Castore are getting their elite break into football.
Win win
Megastore refurb is a massive plus too
Working so close on marketing with an elite brand can only be a huge positive for us. Well done marketing team 👏
