Rangers star rejects Championship transfer in favour of MLS reunion

Former Rangers midfielder Scott Arfield has rejected the chance to move to the Championship in order to head to MLS side Charlotte FC.

The veteran star played in England for eight years, turning out for Huddersfield Town before moving to Burnley, where he played three campaigns in the Premier League. However, he is now ready to swap continents after a successful five-year stay at Ibrox, where he scored 43 times in 233 appearances and won the SPL title in 2021, after manager Michael Beale decided against renewing his contract.

The Canadian international had been linked with a move to Hearts as well as teams south of the border but has opted for a switch to Charlotte FC, according to Sky Sports. The MLS summer transfer window officially opens on July 4 and so it is likely that the move will officially be completed next month.
