Young Rangers fan sets sights on European glory as he snaps up Costa del sol supporters bar
Teenage Rangers Football Club fan, Mitchell Carling has delivered what could go down as one of the greatest transfers in history; as he swaps schoolwork, for a new career as a business investor. The deal, in which Mitchell has acquired the well-known and celebrated Rangers supporters pub, Bar None in Benalmadena, despite not even being old enough to buy a beer yet, will make him the envy of his peers.
Bar None has been a much-loved Rangers supporters bar in the Costa del sol for over 25 years, welcoming blues fans from all over the world. The bar has now temporarily closed for a complete refurbishment and is scheduled to re-open on Friday 29th March, in time for Easter weekend.
Speaking of his latest venture, Mitchell Carling commented; “I am delighted to have completed the deal to purchase Bar None from the previous owners. Since leaving school I decided to enter the hospitality sector, as a market I understand well having grown up in hospitality ‘hot-spots’, Dubai and Costa del sol. I am currently buying several food and drink venues across the region but was pleased that the Rangers bar was the first one to complete.”
Mitchell Carling, a savvy sixteen-year-old Scot, who has lived in both the Costa del sol and Dubai, has already spent years working in business gaining experience. He is known in the press and amongst Rangers fans for raising almost £50,000 for charity when he raffled Europa Cup Final tickets, when Rangers played Eintracht Frankfurt in the 2022 tournament, a game that he attended in Seville.
Discussing his plans for the bar, and his future, Mitchell added; “I’ve known Bar None since I was born, and have watched many games here, but it was in need of some upgrades, so we’ve closed to complete necessary work. We will re-open on Friday 29th March, in time for the busy Easter weekend. Obviously, I can’t actually work in the bar, due to my age, however I will focus on identifying and buying the best regional venues, working with experienced managers who will run them for me. I have already identified several other venues that I would like to purchase and I’m at advanced negotiations to complete. I hope to be making another announcement very soon.”
