Rangers to officially announce Abdallah Sima signing within hours as medical scheduled for Wednesday afternoon
Rangers will officially announce the signature of Brighton forward Abdallah Sima on Thursday (29 June), according to the Glasgow Times.
The publication noted that the 22-year-old will conduct the relevant fitness tests at the club on Wednesday (28 June).
The attacker spent last season on loan at Ligue 1 club Angers SCO, where he scored six goals in 37 appearances in all competitions.
“Abdallah Sima is set to undergo a medical at Rangers today,” according to the Glasgow Times. “The Brighton forward will conduct the relevant fitness tests this afternoon ahead of joining on a season-long loan.
“Barring any last-minute hitches, it’s understood that the move will be officially announced tomorrow.”
Exciting times
It’s definitely an exciting time to be a Rangers supporter, with manager Michael Beale doing his best to help fans forget about the club’s failures on the pitch last season.
The Gers fell massively short of their fierce city rivals Celtic in all competitions, and certainly didn’t get as far in Europe as they would have liked.
But Beale is preparing for the new campaign in the right way as he continues to bring in new players as part of a major summer shakeup at Ibrox.
The likes of first-team regulars Allan McGregor, Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent have all left the Scottish giants, but they have brought in plenty of new faces in these relatively early stages of the summer transfer window.
Goalkeeper Jack Butland, defender Dujon Sterling, midfielder Kieran Dowell and striker Sam Lammers have all been brought in to help improve Beale’s squad, with Sima set to join them at Ibrox very soon.
In other Rangers news, the club have made a brand new transfer approach, with Beale wanting the “real coup.”
