The 2025–26 season was the 146th season of competitive football by Rangers.
It was their tenth-consecutive season in the Scottish Premiership, the top tier of Scottish professional football. They also participated in two cup competitions – the Scottish Cup and the Scottish League Cup – and competed in the qualifying rounds of the UEFA Champions League, dropping into the UEFA Europa League league phase.
It was Russell Martin's first season as head coach, having been appointed on 5 June. However, only four months into the role, he was sacked on 5 October after a 1–1 draw with Falkirk which left the club in 8th position after just one win in 7 league games.
