Former Celtic goalkeeper Lukasz Zaluska has praised Rangers fans for their support to the Gers, as quoted in The Scottish Sun.

Zaluska, who was on the books of Celtic from 2009 until 2015, has been impressed with how the Rangers supporters were behind the team in away games even when they were playing in the lower tiers of Scottish football.

The Scottish Sun quotes Zaluska as saying: “It was amazing Rangers had 50,000 fans at their games in the fourth division in Scotland.

“They travelled around the villages of Scotland and the grounds there are probably worse than at the same level in Poland.

“When they returned to the Premier League, you could see how much it meant to their fans.”

Title race

Celtic have won the Scottish Premiership title for the past nine seasons and will start the 2020-21 campaign as favourites.

Rangers will be under a lot of pressure next season, as Steven Gerrard’’s side will simply have to stop their bitter Old Firm rivals from making it 10 in a row.

It is not going to be easy for the Gers, as the Hoops remain the strongest team in Scotland and could get even better if they are able to make a few good additions to the side in the summer transfer window.

Rangers could also bring in new players this summer, and next season’s title race promises to be hugely exciting indeed.
