PEDRO CAIXINHA insists he isn’t concerned by Celtic’s potential European windfall this term as he looks to bring success back to Ibrox.

Brendan Rodgers’ side stand on the brink of the Champions League group stages for the second successive season after their 5-0 win over Astana on Wednesday night.

Qualification for the next round of the competition could see the Parkhead books boosted by around £30million and give Rodgers further financial muscle in the transfer market.

But Caixinha is only focused on the job he has on his hands with the Light Blues as he looks to finalise his summer overhaul in the coming days.

He said: “I watched Olympiacos against Rijeka, I didn’t watch Celtic. I just know the result.

“But yes it’s a question of money and if you have more money you can invest more money.

“No it’s not my concern, having more money or less money. It’s my concern to know in which direction this football club is working and that we are all working together in the same direction. That is my only concern.

“When I was younger and I was living in a building and some of my neighbours had a Porsche and of course I thought one day I would like to drive a Porsche, but I don’t care that they had one and I didn’t.

“But I know which way I am heading and today I can tell you I am having a Porsche and I can drive a Porsche. This is the way you need to go.”

Caixinha has added nine players to his Gers squad so far this summer as the likes of Bruno Alves and Graham Dorrans have signed on the dotted line.

The Europa League exit at the hands of Progres Niederkorn was a significant setback for the Light Blues before they had even kicked a ball in the Premiership.

But Caixinha reckons the collective efforts of everyone at Ibrox will stand Rangers in good stead as they strive for further improvement this term.

He said: “Football is about quality, football is about players. If you have more money supposedly you might get better players, that’s the way it is.

“But you need to spend it wisely. It’s not only about budgets in football. Budgets are important but it’s not always about budgets.

“I am very happy with the team we have and the effort we are putting in together as a football club, from top to bottom.

“From the chairman from the board of directors, from the technical staff and of course from the players. We all work hard to get the club on the right direction.

“We know that we still need to work harder and harder and harder and that’s what we are doing.

“We don’t care about what the others are doing or not, we just know in which direction we are heading and we know we are heading together in that direction.”
