Former Ibrox winger Neil McCann has told The Daily Record that new Rangers signing Glen Kamara is good enough to play in the Premier League in England.

Rangers have signed Kamara on a pre-contract agreement, and have also secured the services of winger Jordan Jones on a similar deal.

The 23-year-old midfielder will join Steven Gerrard’s side in the summer of 2019 on a free transfer after his current contract with Dundee runs out at the end of the season.

Former Rangers winger McCann managed Kamara at Dundee, and he believes that the Gers have got a very good footballer on their hands.

McCann told The Daily Record about Kamara: “He’s a brilliant boy. He’s also so laidback he’s bordering on horizontal at times and that’s a big advantage if you want to be a guy who keeps the ball under pressure.

“Glen could play in the English Premier League no problem,” McCann added. “He could go into a side with higher quality around him and fit right into that level. That’s how good he is.”

Big signing

Kamara is a very good midfielder who is playing well for Dundee at the moment, and signing the 23-year-old on a pre-contract agreement is a coup for Rangers.

The Finland international can only get better, and working with former Liverpool midfielder Gerrard at Rangers will help him develop and progress.

Rangers are aiming to win the Scottish Premiership title this season.
