Nile Ranger back in football – Signs and plays for new club | OneFootball

Nile Ranger is back in football.

The one-time Newcastle United player finding a new club.

Kettering Town Football Club announcing (see below) that Nile Ranger had signed for them.

Now aged 33, Nile Ranger joining a club that plays at the seventh tier of English football in the Southern League Premier Division Central.

Ranger went straight into their team last night for an away match at St Ives, Kettering going a goal behind but coming back to win 2-1, though the former Newcastle United striker didn’t get on the scoresheet.

Interesting to see how long Nile Ranger lasts at his latest club…

Kettering Town official announcement on Nile Ranger – 9 September 2024:

‘Richard Lavery has added to his squad with the experienced signing of striker Nile Ranger. Nile has previously played for Newcastle United, Barnsley (loan), Sheffield Wednesday (loan), Swindon Town, Blackpool, Southend United, Spalding United, Boreham Wood.

An England U19 international Nile had a pre-season at Barnet, he has played in the Premiership, Championship, League One and Two, the National League and a short spell in the Northern Premier Division One South/East.

Nile has undoubted ability and should offer a different dynamic to the Poppies squad. We would like to welcome Nile to Latimer Park and hope he has a successful time with the club. He goes straight into tonight’s squad to face St Ives Town.’
