Super Eagles striker Cyriel Dessers has completed his expected transfer to Scottish giants Glasgow Rangers.

The move was confirmed on Thursday by both the player and the Club.

Dessers is expected to lead the new revolution at Ibrox after the exit of several players at the end of last season.

The 28-year-old striker becomes Michael Beale’s sixth signing of the summer transfer window.

Speaking after signing for Rangers, he said: “I am really happy, it is a big relief to finally be here. There have been some long days and some stressful days, but it is a great feeling to finally be here.

“The history of the club, the fans, the stadium, it’s massive but next to that I look at what is here at this moment. I had really good talks with Michael Beale about his plans, the ideas of what he wants on and off the pitch and I thought that could be a really good fit for me and for the team so I am happy to be here.”

Manager Michael Beale is also excited to get the former Genk and Feyenoord forward.

“We are delighted to have Cyriel joining our club. He brings a lot of experience from playing in Holland, Belgium and Italy, as well as in European competitions.

“We were looking for a very specific profile and believe that Cyriel will give us a variety of qualities both in and out of possession. When we met, we spoke at length about his alignment to our style of play and the other forwards we have in our squad. ​

“At 28-years-old, he is at a good age and will bring personality and leadership to our team. Cyriel pushed extremely hard to make this transfer a reality and showed a huge desire to come here.

“We are very happy to have him and his family joining us at Rangers. He is an excellent addition to our squad and I look forward to working with him closely over the coming seasons.”

Dessers spent last season with US Cremonese where he scored six goals in 29 league appearances.
