Michael Stewart makes ‘fast-forward’ Hamza Igamane claim at Rangers

Michael Stewart believes that Hamza Igamane was “fast-forwarded” at Rangers having primarily been signed as a player for the future.

Rangers have struggled for much consistency this season but some has emerged in the form

Whether Rangers intended his development to take longer or not, the form of the frontman has been nothing short of magnificent throughout the campaign and it begs a daunting question as to where the Gers would be without him.

Philippe Clement’s side have largely struggled to source regular goals in games when taking Igamane out of the equation, who has 10 league goal contributions so far.

His form showcases that players can offer huge contributions without much history in the league and in some cases, there isn’t a need to slowly drip-feed them game time.

Igamane will be paramount to any success obtained by Clement and Rangers and there will no doubt be fears as to whether he will remain at Ibrox past the 3 February deadline.

Rangers were offered the chance to sign Nikola Katic on loan with an option to buy, says Craig Moore.

The Gers have been in need of defensive reinforcements this window, especially after John Souttar, Leon Balogun

He said: “I try to be as honest and transparent as I possibly can. Katic is a player I presented to Rangers at the start of the window. Katic was a fans’ favourite, who done well at the club until he picked up his ACL injury.

“He then went to chase football elsewhere, I think originally in Croatia and has continued to grow at Zurich. A big, solid defender but there was no interest so I imagine at this stage there is still no interest otherwise I’d have had a call, which I haven’t.

“28, 6 foot 4 and loves to attack the ball.
