Rangers' commercial and marketing chief James Bisgrove said: "The opening of New Edmiston House is a massive moment for the club.

"The club museum will be a flagship attraction to New Edmiston House and Ibrox.
"Since I arrived at the club, the desire for a museum has been clear, and we are really excited with what we are going to share with our supporters, and many other visitors to the city.
"The specialist fit-out of the museum is now underway, and it will open later this year.
"The backing from supporters who have purchased these official packages has played a crucial role in the funding the venue, and it’s hugely appreciated by all at the club."
