Barcelona, Inter, Lazio… and astonishingly, Glasgow Rangers enter the race
With Champions League ambition and serious financial muscle, Rangers launch a sensational bid
Inside the negotiations, the contracts, the Nike influence, and the offer that would’ve shocked world football
What would it have meant for Scottish football, European competition, and the 1998 World Cup?
