Rangers Women head coach Jo Potter has signed a new deal until the summer of 2026.
The former Lionesses’ player – who joined the Gers from Birmingham City last June – has led the club to top spot in the Scottish Women’s Premier League after an unbeaten start to the season.
Rangers are also in the Sky Sports Cup final against Partick Thistle – live on Sky Sports – as they bid to retain the trophy having won it at Tynecastle Park last season for the first time, plus face Hibernian in the Scottish Cup last eight.
“It was kind of a no-brainer for me when the club approached me about extending my stay,” said Potter after penning her new deal.
“It is the start of something really special and the club has made me feel more than welcome and been really aligned with my views and my way of working. I have really enjoyed this last few months of being here.”
Women’s and girls’ managing director Donald Gillies added: “Since I joined the club, I have thoroughly enjoyed my working relationship with Jo. I am pleased that we were able to make swift progress on the contract discussions, which demonstrate how committed to Rangers she is.
“The professionalism, high standards and dedication that Jo and all of the coaching and support staff have given to make this club successful is evident both on and off the pitch.
“We hope that hard work is rewarded with some silverware and we are in a strong position to achieve that goal under Jo.”
