Rangers have been hit with a fine of £10,100 by UEFA following concerns related to public safety during their Champions League third qualifying round match against Dynamo Kyiv.
The match, held at Hampden Park on August 13, 2023, was seemingly marred by incidents that led to the governing body’s decision.
The fine stems from reports that the Glasgow club failed to ensure the safe passage of fans and staff, leading to the "blocking of public passageways."

Manager Derek McInnes has also been cautioned for the "late kick-off."
