Sale of Rangers FC 'will go ahead by mid-January'

A DEAL to sell Rangers Football Club to Scots venture capitalist Craig Whyte will go though by the middle of January, according to senior sources at the club.

Whyte, 39, met with Ibrox chairman Alastair Johnston in Glasgow to discuss the purchase of Sir David Murray's shareholding in the club.

 

The proposed £33 million deal will wipe out the existing debt that has stymied Rangers in the transfer market for two years.

 

Yesterday, sources at Rangers said the deal, barring any late hitches, could be completed before Christmas but it is more likely that it will be done by the middle of January. "We can't say with 100 per cent certainty, but Whyte has the money and is very convincing. We think the deal will happen," said the source.

 

Murray has presided over Rangers for 22 years but has been keen to sell his stake for some time.

 

Hopefully the debt thing is not true as that is what is holding them back at the moment.

2 days after they turn down 22 million for him, oh ma sides 😂😂😂😂😂

After reading pandas post in the hearts thread I needed a bit of cheering up. You love to see it 😂

Is the £22M that they turned down the same £20+M that they've turned down for Morelos, Kent and Butland? Or do the transfer fairies build a new case of money each year?
