Reuniting with Martin was 'main pull' for Rothwell
Briefly

Joe Rothwell has signed a three-year deal with Rangers after leaving Bournemouth. Reuniting with manager Russell Martin influenced his decision significantly, as they previously worked together during a successful period at Southampton. Rothwell had earlier turned down Rangers but felt compelled to accept the offer this time. He noted that Martin's man-management and tactical approach, particularly his possession-based style, were appealing. Rothwell, who spent his youth career at Manchester United, aims to capitalize on this new opportunity to thrive at a major club like Rangers.
"Just before I signed for Bournemouth, it was kind of a toss-up between the two. Obviously, I decided to go to Bournemouth at the time, but I'm thankful that the offer came back around this time and I jumped straight at it."
"He just sees the game how I would like to if I was a manager, how I would like to play the game. He's a possession-based manager. From the outside, it looks like he's just playing pointless passes. But when you're actually inside it, you understand every pass that you make is key."
