Gers have officially triggered their buyback option for £350k star

The youthful Northern Irish midfielder, 21, struck a rasping 30-yard shot to win the day for Forest Green against Tranmere Rovers, scoring only his second goal of the season.

The outcome has the potential to strengthen Forest Green’s League Two survival aspirations, since the team is currently in one of the division’s two relegation spots.

Take a look at the incredible goal below, as ex-Manchester United player Charlie McCann demonstrates why he made the breakthrough at Rangers before moving south.

Ex-Ibrox Forest Green midfielder scores stunner.

Charlie McCann impressed in Rangers’ B squad and went on to play eight games for the top team before joining Forest Green in 2023.

There was some uncertainty around a potential amount paid by Rangers to Manchester United to sign the boy,

who was then playing for the Republic of Ireland’s minor team, with rumors claiming the Gers paid £750k refuted by Ibrox insiders.

Charlie McCann switched allegiances to Northern Ireland during his tenure at Ibrox, earning five caps with the country’s U21s and being expected to be a future international.

Forest Green reportedly paid Rangers £350,000 for the promising midfielder, who joined the club in January 2023 despite being offered a new deal at Ibrox.

Could Charlie McCann’s goal convince the Rangers?

Charlie McCann is supposed to have left Glasgow in quest of first-team minutes, and he has since made 38 appearances for Forest Green.

The midfielder made only three appearances for the team when they were relegated from League One last season, and the club is now facing back-to-back demotions.

While Rangers are thought to have a buy-back option on Charlie McCann’s transfer to Forest Green, even his magnificent goal against Tranmere Rovers is unlikely to persuade the club to exercise it.

The Gers have undoubtedly progressed in this regard, with midfield becoming an increasingly competitive position at Ibrox and Charlie McCann unlikely to receive the minutes he desires.
