Everton's former defender Ben Godfrey has joined Rangers on loan from Atalanta. The 28-year-old is determined to help Rangers achieve what it deserves, which is silverware and exciting times.

What happened?

Godfrey has struggled for game time in recent seasons, spending the second half of last term making 12 appearances on loan to Brondby as they finished fourth in the Danish top flight.

Why it matters for Everton

Godfrey's move to Rangers is his fourth loan in the past two years, after stints at Ipswich Town, Sheffield United, and Brondby. He has played just five times for Atalanta since moving to the Serie A club in 2024.

What comes next?

Rangers manager Derek McInnes is pleased to be signing a player who has competed at a very high level throughout his career. Godfrey has two England caps and is capable of playing centre-back and full-back.
