Rangers attacking midfielder Niko Kranjcar has told The Glasgow Evening Times that his Ibrox teammate Josh Windass has the quality to play in the Premier League in the future.

Windass has been on the books of Rangers since the summer of 2016 when he joined after leaving Accrington Stanley, having already signed a pre-contract with the Gers in January 2016.

The 24-year-old midfielder, who was signed by then Rangers manager Mark Warburton, has not had exactly a great time so far at the Gers, but there have been some very encouraging moments, especially in recent weeks.

The Englishman seems to have established himself as an important player in the Gers midfield under Ibrox manager Graeme Murray and has been successful in a more central role.

Rangers attacking midfielder Kranjcar, who has played for Portsmouth, Tottenham Hotspur and Queens Park Rangers (loan) in England, believes that his teammate Windass will be good enough to play in the Premier League in the future.

Kranjcar told The Glasgow Evening Times about Windass: “The most important thing is the confidence and with the talent that he’s got both physical and on the ball, I think he has a very bright future ahead of him. I’m sure he will be good enough to play in the Premier League in the future.”
