Rangers newco chief executive Charles Green has denied his company received an offer from, or held discussions with, Brian Kennedy.

The Sale Sharks owner announced on Monday he had recently met a Sevco Scotland representative with a view to purchasing a majority stake in the club.

However, Green said on www.rangers.co.uk: "For the avoidance of doubt, the owners and board of the club are not interested in selling a majority stake in Rangers to anyone."

He added: "I have said many times we are happy to talk to potential investors who wish to join the consortium on the basis that no single investor will have a majority shareholding and they support our commitment to a share issue for fans.

"We have checked with all the official representatives of shareholders and none of them have had meetings with Brian Kennedy so we have no idea who the gentleman is he is referring to.

"He has not contacted any board members on this matter and we have never received any written offer from him."
