EDITORS COMMENTS
Great moment captured in this photograph as Umar Sadiq of Rangers Football Club shines during a friendly match against Wigan Athletic at the iconic Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow. The year was 2003, and the Scottish Cup Champions were gearing up for the new season with a preparatory fixture against their English counterparts. The young Nigerian striker, then just 18 years old, was making his mark on the Rangers first team, having joined the club from Spezia Calcio in Italy the previous year. In this image, Umar Sadiq is seen in full flight, his determination and focus evident as he charges towards the goal, the ball at his feet and the Wigan Athletic defense in disarray behind him. The atmosphere at Ibrox Stadium that day was electric, with the anticipation of a new season and the excitement of a promising young talent making his mark on the team. The Scottish Cup, proudly displayed on the pitch, served as a reminder of the team's recent successes and the high standards expected of them. Umar Sadiq would go on to make 12 appearances for Rangers that season, scoring 3 goals and helping the team to a 3rd place finish in the Scottish Premier League. His performances earned him the Young Player of the Year award, and he quickly became a fan favorite among the Rangers faithful. This photograph captures a moment of promise and potential, with Umar Sadiq poised to make his mark on the Scottish football scene and Rangers Football Club. The trophies and the iconic Ibrox Stadium serve as a backdrop to his shining debut.
