Tochi Chukwuani considers January exit from Rangers amid limited playing time

Summary

Tochi Chukwuani, a midfielder for Rangers, is contemplating a January transfer due to a lack of playing time. Currently, Rangers sit second in the Premiership with 20 points from nine matches after a recent 2-2 draw at Dundee. Chukwuani has not started a league match this season, making only 41 minutes of league play across eight appearances. Rangers signed Chukwuani in January 2026 on a contract running until June 2029, but his role is now under scrutiny as manager Derek McInnes balances team performance with player rotation ahead of January.
