Signed by Steven Gerrard in 2018, Arfield brought a wealth of experience from his time at Burnley and Huddersfield. Over his tenure at Ibrox, he made significant contributions, including scoring crucial goals in Old Firm matches and playing a pivotal role in Rangers’ 2020–21 Premiership title win. His versatility and leadership were invaluable assets to the team.
Despite his individual successes, Arfield expressed regrets about the team’s inability to secure more silverware during his time at Rangers. He acknowledged that, while the squad was strong, they fell short in key moments, particularly in European competitions. This sentiment reflects the broader challenges Rangers faced in competing with Celtic during that period.
Following his departure, Arfield continued his career in Major League Soccer with Charlotte FC, where he has been able to enjoy a different footballing environment. His time in the United States has allowed him to reflect on his career and the experiences that shaped his time at Rangers.
In hindsight, Arfield’s tenure at Rangers is remembered for his commitment, crucial performances, and the leadership he provided both on and off the pitch. While the team may not have achieved all their goals during his time, his contributions remain a significant part of the club’s recent history.
