⚽ Why Maddison, Why Now?
After struggling for consistent minutes under new Spurs boss Arne Slot, Maddison reportedly grew frustrated with his role. With Euro 2028 qualifiers approaching, the midfielder sought regular playing time in a system that plays to his strengths.
Enter Russell Martin, who’s wasted no time transforming Rangers into one of the most ambitious clubs in the UK.
> 🗣️ Maddison on the move:
“The chance to play week in, week out, under a manager who plays attacking football — it was an easy decision. I’m hungry, focused, and ready to give everything for the badge.”

🧠 Russell Martin’s Masterplan in Full Swing

Maddison is expected to operate as the central playmaker, in a free No.10 role, feeding off the movement of Rashford and other dynamic attackers.
> 🗣️ Russell Martin:
“James is a special talent. His creativity, set-piece delivery, and football IQ will elevate us to another level.”
