Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara has impressed since his Ibrox move.

Glen Kamara of Rangers takes on Scott Sinclair of Celtic during the Ladbrokes Scottish Premiership match between Celtic and Rangers at Celtic Park on March 31, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara has told The Scottish Sun that he didn’t have his head turned when the club wanted him in January.

Kamara, 23, came through the Arsenal ranks having joined from Southend United in 2012, but really made his name with Dundee.

The Finland international joined Dundee in 2017, and his impressive performances sparked major interest when the January transfer window came around.

Kamara then signed a pre-contract agreement with Rangers, but rather than wait until summer, the Gers paid a nominal fee to take him to Ibrox immediately.

Kamara has made a huge impact so far, becoming a mainstay of Steven Gerrard’s side whilst earning rave reviews for his displays in the heart of the Rangers midfield.

He looks set to be a key player for Rangers heading into next season, and he has now discussed Dundee’s decision to cash in on him rather than see him wind down his contract.

Kamara said ‘yes and no’ when asked whether he was surprised by the decision, merely feeling that Dundee probably wanted to get what little cash they could, whilst adding that his head wasn’t turned by Rangers even after signing the pre-contract deal, with his full focus on Dundee until his move went through.

“Yes and no,” said Kamara. “They probably thought if they can get some kind of money for him. they should let him go. I was still a Dundee player, so my head wasn’t turned,” he added.
