Rangers player charged with driving offences in connection with crash following Old Firm win

A Rangers footballer has been charged with driving offences after a crash in Glasgow.

Dujon Sterling was arrested after a one-vehicle collision in West Graham Street, Cowcaddens, at around 1.25am on Sunday.

Police Scotland said no one was injured in the incident and the defender will appear in court at a later date.

The crash happened hours after Rangers beat Celtic 3-1 at Parkhead.

Rangers FC have been approached for comment.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 1.25am on Sunday police received a report of a one-vehicle crash on West Graham Street, Glasgow.

“There were no injuries reported.

“The driver, a 26-year-old man, was arrested and charged in connection with road traffic offences.

“He’s expected to appear at court at a later date.”

Saturday’s game put Celtic boss Wilfried Nancy under growing pressure after Old Firm rivals Rangers came from behind to claim a 3-1 William Hill Premiership win at Parkhead.

A goal from South Korea international Yang Hyun-jun had given Celtic a 20th-minute lead as they made all the early running, but things changed dramatically in the second half.

Rangers’ much-maligned striker Youssef Chermiti scored twice in the space of nine minutes and Mikey Moore added a third in the 71st minute as Rangers moved level with Celtic on points, with both Glasgow clubs six adrift of leaders Hearts, who edged out struggling Livington 1-0.
