Rangers get FFP 'watch it' warning after UEFA show their teeth amid transfer questions

Rangers are finally making some serious money after completing their journey from the fourth tier back up to the Champions League.

The Ibrox club coined it in by reaching the Europa League Final in May and then by qualifying for the lucrative group stage of the continent’s premier club tournament. On top of that they have banked £28.73million from the transfers of Calvin Bassey, Joe Aribo and Cedric Itten in the summer.

However, they reinvested just over £11m on signing Ben Davies, Antonio Colak, Rabbi Matondo and Ridvan Yilmaz in the last window, plus a loan fee to Bayern Munich to bring Malik Tillman on board. But no new faces came in over the last 38 days of the transfer window and in the wake of back-to-back 4-0 defeats by Celtic and Ajax, fans are wondering where the money has gone. Rangers were one of 18 clubs along with the likes of Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund, Manchester City, Leicester City, Napoli and West Ham, who were put on a Financial Fair Play watch list by the ruling body as they bid to ensure teams live within their means or face sanctions.
