2025/2026 NPFL Season: Rangers International FC Sets Sights on a Brighter Future

Posted : 16 June 2025

As the 2025/2026 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season approaches—scheduled to kick off on August 22—optimism is high among supporters of Rangers International FC. Central to this renewed hope is the unwavering support from Enugu State Governor and club financier, Dr. Peter Mbah, whose administration has firmly backed the club’s revival over the past two years.

The eight-time NPFL champions and six-time Federation Cup winners, who proudly remain the only Nigerian club never relegated since their establishment in 1970, are aiming for a future marked by strategic growth and professional excellence under General Manager/CEO Amobi Ezeaku Esq.

One of the club's standout priorities is grassroots development. The Rangers Youth Team is thriving under the experienced guidance of FIFA World Cup star Ejike Uzoenyi, while the U-19 side, led by Coach Felix Nwosu, continues to show steady progression.

Another exciting initiative is the upcoming launch of Rangers Women’s Team, a move that reinforces the club's commitment to all-round development and inclusivity.

On the senior team front, Coach Fidelis Ilechukwu and his assistants are diligently preparing the squad for the new season, while Chief Scout Patrick Nworji leads efforts to recruit key talents who will proudly wear the Rangers badge.

A major goal of Barrister Amobi Ezeaku’s leadership is to transform Rangers into a fully professional and financially independent football institution. The club is actively pursuing partnerships with reputable corporate organizations—both within Nigeria and globally—to boost revenue and sustainability.

This strategic vision is tailored to elevate Rangers to compete favorably with continental powerhouses such as Mamelodi Sundowns, Al Ahly, TP Mazembe, and FAR Rabat in future CAF competitions.

Off the pitch, Rangers' marketing and media departments are being overhauled. Replica jerseys are now widely available, with future editions set for even greater improvements. The media team is enhancing fan engagement and promoting visibility for partner brands through modern communication strategies.

Player motivation remains a central focus as the club prepares to reclaim its spot among Nigeria’s and Africa’s football elite.

In summary, the Flying Antelopes are building a comprehensive structure that balances performance, development, and professionalism. Fans, stakeholders, and well-wishers are urged to support the team’s mission as Rangers International FC charts a path to unprecedented success. "Holy! Holy!! Holy!!! Holy!!!! Enugu Rangers—Another Champion!"
