Fallon Ready To Work Hard And Keep Improving

FALLON Connolly-Jackson is hoping to continue her development further and prove herself when she gets the chance after sealing a move to Rangers.

The youngster, who only signed her first professional contract with her former club Sheffield United back in September 2024, has agreed a deal in Glasgow until the summer of 2027.

Speaking to RangersTV for the first time after joining the side, the 18-year-old said: “It was definitely time for a new challenge.

“I came through the academy; it got a bit comfortable, and someone always said be comfortable being uncomfortable, so I feel like it was time for that move to develop myself in that.

“I just fancied a change and fancied someone new.

“My parents just said I can do whatever I want to do so that was easy.

“I think if I get the opportunity, then I can prove myself and strive from there and show everyone what I am capable of doing.

“I hate losing, I love winning and everything the club is, is what I love to do.”

After joining the Blades’ academy at the age of 11, the full-back made her debut for the club in September 2023, as she spoke of her journey in football to now trying something new.

She continued: “Through the academy, it was really good, training most days, everyone invited me to stuff but I said no because I had training.

“It was really good growing up, they really liked player-development, which was good, and then I finally got through to the first-team which is what I have been training for from when I was little.

“That was a really proud moment for me and my family. It was just a great experience playing with players who have had experience coming up so young.

“First pro deal? That was what I was striving for, to finally get that and just to see everything I was working for pay off, it was so exciting and I am proud of myself for that.

“The confidence I have gained will help me going to here as well and I am just excited to see what I can do.”

Having already featured for her nation due to her Scottish granddad at both Under-23 and 19 levels, the defender hopes to develop further and learn from the experience currently within the Rangers squad.

She added: “It is a proud moment for me, especially and for my grandad.

“It is very exciting to see what I can do with the hard work I have put in and it is always an honour going to play, because I didn't think I would get picked.

“Getting the call that I had been picked was a special moment.

“To be able to be around her every day and see what traits she has that will help me in the future and I am excited for it.

“It is a new coach and experience for me because I have never had that before, because I have been at the same club.
