Robbie Ure, a 21-year-old striker who rose through the ranks of Rangers’ academy, has made a dream start to his career in Sweden. Ure, who rejected an extended deal at Ibrox to join Anderlecht’s reserve side, has become IK Sirius’ record signing in a deal worth 8m Krona (approximately £620,000).

In an interview with Upsala Nya Tidning, Ure revealed that he had always dreamed of playing for Rangers, his boyhood heroes. Despite being chased by both sides of the Old Firm, Ure’s decision to join Rangers was never in doubt.
“When I was young, I had the option to go to either Rangers or Celtic, but it wasn’t a difficult decision,” Ure explained. “My whole family were Rangers, so I went there and stayed for ten years.”
Ure’s passion for Rangers is evident, and he described the Old Firm rivalry as the “biggest and best” in the world. He fondly recalled his time at Rangers, where he scored on his debut in a 3-1 win against Queen of the South in 2022.
