Career

In June 2022, Nsio joined Rangers from London club Lambeth Tigers, as part of five new players for the under-18 team. [1] He was one of three of those players to come from the English capital, and was described in The Athletic as "a flair player whose rangy physique means he can go box-to-box". [2]

On 30 August 2022, Nsio was one of three 16-year-olds to make their first-team debuts as late substitutes for Rangers in a 3–1 home win over Queen of the South, as the club made it to the quarter-finals of the Scottish League Cup. [3] He came on for the final two minutes in place of Fashion Sakala, under the management of Giovanni van Bronckhorst. [4]

With the Rangers B Team, Nsio took part in the Scottish Challenge Cup. He scored the equaliser on 30 July 2024 as the team won 3–1 at home to Bo'ness United in the first round. [5] The following 26 January, he made his Scottish Premiership debut in a win by the same score away to Dundee United, coming on in the last minute for Nedim Bajrami. [6]
