Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers have the luxury of a fully-fit Niko Kranjcar at the moment.
Ryan Jack has heaped praise on Rangers team-mate Niko Kranjcar, speaking to The Glasgow Evening Times.
The Croatian international was one of Rangers’ better players in Thursday night’s 1-0 Europa League win over Progres Niederkorn at Ibrox.
The former Tottenham and Portsmouth joined the Gers last summer under Mark Warburton but spent most of his debut season on the sidelines with injury.
But he certainly looked back to his best in the first-round qualifying win over the Luxembourg-based outfit, and Jack says he has a ton of respect for the ex-Premier League star.
“As a player, you can see the talent that he has. There are passes he can see that other players out there can’t see,” he told The GET.
“So far, I have enjoyed playing alongside Niko and hopefully he can help my career. He has obviously had great experiences in his career so far and I am sure any sort of advice he can pass on, of course I would be willing to listen.
“He is a man I have got great respect for and he has had a great career. I thought he was excellent and hopefully that continues.”
Jack, who also impressed on Thursday, is one of eight new faces at Rangers this summer as manager Pedro Caixinha looks to overhaul the squad.
The former Aberdeen midfielder is the only Scottish talent to be signed so far, but deals for Graham Dorrans and Jamie Walker could materialise before the summer is out.
For Kranjcar, he will certainly hope to be a lot more influential for the Ibrox side this season. He looked to be enjoying his football at the time of his ligament injury in October.
