The 27-year-old Swedish midfielder has signed a four-year contract, keeping him at Ibrox until June 2030, subject to the usual registration formalities. The deal reportedly includes an undisclosed transfer fee, with performance-related bonuses that could increase its overall value.

Ingelsson leaves Sheffield Wednesday after establishing himself as a hardworking and dependable figure in the middle of the park. His energy, pressing ability, and composure on the ball made him a popular player among the club’s supporters, and his consistent performances attracted interest from several clubs during the summer transfer window.
Speaking after signing his contract, Ingelsson expressed his excitement about beginning the next chapter of his career.

“I’m delighted to be here. Rangers is a massive football club with incredible supporters and a rich history. As soon as I heard about the opportunity, I knew it was the right move for me. I can’t wait to get started and help the team achieve its goals.”
Rangers’ manager also welcomed the midfielder, describing him as an intelligent player capable of strengthening the team’s midfield.
“Svante brings experience, work rate, and tactical discipline. He’s the type of player who gives everything for the badge and will fit perfectly into the style of football we want to play.”
Sheffield Wednesday also released a statement thanking Ingelsson for his commitment and professionalism during his time at Hillsborough.
“Everyone at Sheffield Wednesday would like to thank Svante for his dedication and efforts while representing the club. We wish him every success in the next stage of his career.”
Fans have shared mixed reactions across social media. While many Wednesday supporters are disappointed to lose an important midfielder, others wished him well and acknowledged that the opportunity to join a club competing for domestic trophies and European football was difficult to turn down.

Meanwhile, Rangers supporters have welcomed the signing, believing Ingelsson’s versatility and work ethic will add valuable depth to the squad as they prepare for another demanding campaign across multiple competitions.
The Swedish midfielder is expected to join his new teammates immediately for pre-season preparations and could make his unofficial debut in the club’s upcoming friendly fixtures before the new season begins.
For Sheffield Wednesday, attention now turns to finding a suitable replacement before the transfer window closes, while Rangers hope their newest signing will quickly settle into life at Ibrox and become an important part of their midfield.
With the deal now officially accepted, both clubs move forward with different ambitions, while Svante Ingelsson begins an exciting new chapter in his professional career.
