Joe Rothwell has revealed the pivotal phone call that led to his swift decision to join Rangers this summer. The former Bournemouth midfielder shared that a direct call from manager Russell Martin left a deep impression, prompting him to drop everything and commit to Ibrox immediately.
“I was in the middle of my day when the phone rang. It was Russell,” Rothwell said. “The moment he spoke about the vision, the club, and what he saw in me, I knew right away — I said, ‘I’ll be right there.’”
Rothwell, who brings Premier League experience and creative flair, is expected to play a key role in Rangers’ midfield rebuild. His rapid decision to join the Glasgow giants underlines both the pull of the club and the persuasive power of Martin, who has been instrumental in reshaping the squad this transfer window.
Fans are already buzzing about the commitment shown by Rothwell and the growing influence of Martin’s leadership as Rangers prepare for a season full of ambition.
