'I never once thought I needed to get out'
Jack Butland insists he never considered seeking an escape route this summer and Rangers remains the club "where I want to be". The former England goalkeeper lost his Ibrox starting spot to Liam Kelly during the final months of last term under interim boss Barry Ferguson. But Butland, 32, was give the gloves by new head coach Russell Martin for the season-opening first-leg win over Panathinaikos in Champions League qualifying last week and is determined to build on that impressive performance. "Has it been smooth sailing, my time at the club? Not for me personally, for all of us, no, it's not been quite as successful as we'd like it to have been," Butland told Sky Sports. "I never lost that, I didn't walk away from the season thinking, although some people like to try and make those stories up, that that's the end of it. "I was very determined that I will determine how my career goes here. "Obviously things can be taken out of your hands at times, but I was very adamant in the summer that regardless of what happens, what managerial changes, ownership changes, that I was going to come in and be the best version of myself and at least give myself the opportunity to have control of what happens next. "I hope I've managed to do that. I certainly feel fit and sharp and positive and looking forward to the season ahead at a club where I want to be. "I never once looked away from it and thought I need a change or I need to get out. "I need to keep my head up, stick my chest out and get on with it. That's the plan."

Food delivery service Calo scores $39 million in Series B extension as it sets eyes on the UK
Middle Eastern food delivery startup Calo said Tuesday it has raised $39 million in a Series B extension that was led by AlJazira Capital. The fundraise, which was more than 1.5x of its original $25 million raise in December, also saw participation from existing backers such as Nuwa Capital, STV, Khwarizmi Ventures, and Al Faisaliah Group. The company is using this funding to expand into territories like the UK and also explore different partnerships in physical space. Calo primarily offers ready-to-eat meals that customers can heat up later. The company delivers different plans to cater to various health goals. The company's founder, Ahmed Al Rawi, told TechCrunch the startup's revenue grew by 'close to 100%.' Calo delivered more than 10 million meals last year in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain. While Al Rawi didn't provide a number for this year, he said the deliveries were growing in step with revenue. Those numbers, along with its brand, technology, and operational excellence, convinced AlJazira Capital to invest in the Saudi company. 'Calo represents a compelling opportunity at the intersection of healthtech, foodtech, and consumer subscription models,' Rawan AlRasheed, director of venture capital at AlJazira Capital told TechCrunch in a statement. The startup is also making moves to expand in the UK, where last year it acquired two meal delivery services, Fresh Fitness Food and Detox Kitchen. While Fresh Fitness Food didn't raise any money, Detox Kitchen had raised just over $3.4 million via a mix of venture-backed and equity crowdfunding rounds, according to Crunchbase data. 'We spoke to over 50 meal subscription businesses worldwide, ranging from the U.S. to Asia, in 2023-24 to learn about what is an exciting market for us to expand to. We realized the UK was the right market for us to expand. We thought that both companies that we acquired had a great culture fit to work with Calo,' Al Rawi told TechCrunch over a call. He added that Calo acquired these businesses because they had their operational layer figured out, and the startup just wanted to upscale the tech and branding layer. Al Rawi said Calo spent most of this year integrating its technology and process with both UK platforms without laying off any of the existing personnel. The startup finished the integration work in July and has been slowly making a marketing push in the UK. Calo can currently deliver meals in London daily and in other parts of the UK two to three times a week. The founder said that Calo is targeting to get to 10x its revenue in the UK in the next three years. Those UK ambitions will be met with competition. Apart from traditional food delivery giants like Just Eat and Deliveroo, Calo will also compete with meal-box services such as Gusto and Wicked Kitchen. While Calo is focused on growing in the UK, the company is also looking to acquire different meal-kit services across the world. The company is also expanding physical locations, including retail stores and kiosks in other regions. The company has also partnered with a gym chain called Armah Sports Company in Saudi Arabia to offer a bundle of Calo and gym subscription.
