Ferguson excited as Rangers near £4.5m deal for star who’s ‘got something’

Barry Ferguson, a former player for Rangers, is thrilled with what he has seen in Mohamed Diomande. There have been rumors that

the Nordsjaelland youngster is headed to the Scottish Premiership giants for a reported £4.5 million.

The highly regarded African attacker Mohamed Diomande, 22, is not the first to establish himself at Nordsjaelland. If his tenure at

Rangers follows the same prosperous trajectory as Mohamed Kudus’s at Ajax, Philippe Clement’s team ought to reap substantial

benefits from their purported £4.5 million outlay.

Rangers have reportedly fended off interest from a number of teams, with Diomande departing Nordsjaelland’s USA-based training

camp to have a medical in Glasgow, according to Danish outlet BT.

Even though well-edited YouTube compilations could make the best of us look half-decent, former Gators captain Ferguson is excited

to see one of the most promising midfield talents in Scandinavia bring his impressively well-rounded skill set and ball-carrying prowess to Scotland.

“When I knew it was probably going to be happening yesterday, as you do, you go on to YouTube and have a look,” Ferguson tells

the Daily Record. “Listen, everybody can look good on YouTube. But from the highlights,

he looks as if he has got something about him.

“(Diomande is) certainly a player the manager knows and fancies so interesting to see if it gets done in the next couple of days.”

Rangers were not anticipated to add a midfield player this month—the team reportedly turned down the chance to sign Steven Alzate

from Brighton earlier in the transfer window—but Diomande is obviously regarded so highly that the

Ibrox behemoths felt this was an opportunity they could not pass up.

Tough-tackling and tenacious yet technically gifted too, Diomande has five assists from 21 appearances for Nordsjaelland this season.

A tally of nine yellow cards, meanwhile, suggests he won’t need too much time to adapt to the physicality of the Scottish league.
