Nicolas Raskin Sends Emotional Farewell as Senior Rangers Exit Confirmed
Rangers midfielder Nicolas Raskin has taken to social media to share a heartfelt message following the confirmed departure of a senior figure at Ibrox, marking an emotional moment for the club and its players. The Belgian star paid tribute to the departing staff member, reflecting the deep bond that exists behind the scenes at Rangers.
Raskin, who joined the Scottish giants in January 2023, expressed his admiration and gratitude in an emotional post. Without naming the individual outright, it’s understood that the departure relates to a long-serving member of the backroom or coaching staff, someone who played a significant role in the daily workings at the club. His post conveyed a mix of respect, sadness, and appreciation, clearly underlining the impact the figure had on his time at Rangers.
The midfielder wrote, “Thank you for everything. You were more than just staff to us. Always positive, always motivating, and always had a kind word for everyone. I will miss you a lot. Wishing you the very best in your next chapter.”
The message has resonated with fans and fellow players alike, many of whom responded with their own words of thanks and tribute in the comments. The identity of the departing figure has not been officially announced by the club, but sources close to Ibrox suggest it may be someone involved closely in the dressing room environment — possibly a member of the medical, technical, or support team.
The emotional nature of Raskin’s message reflects the tight-knit culture fostered within the Rangers squad. As the club undergoes changes this summer under manager Philippe Clement, the departure is likely part of a broader restructuring behind the scenes, with new personnel expected to come in ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
Raskin’s tribute not only sheds light on the often-overlooked staff who play a vital role in team success, but also highlights the unity and family atmosphere cultivated within the club. As Rangers aim to reclaim domestic dominance and make a mark in Europe, transitions like this — though difficult — are part of the evolving football landscape.
Fans will hope that this emotional farewell marks the beginning of a new, promising chapter at Ibrox, built on the solid foundations laid by those who have dedicated themselves tirelessly behind the scenes.
