Ipswich striker Al-Hamadi sends two-word message as Rangers seal signing
Russell Martin has not wasted any time at Rangers this summer as he looks to reinforce his squad.
The Gers have made six signings so far this summer, as the Glaswegians look to lift the Scottish Premiership once more.
Martin and Kevin Thelwell have been working hard to identify targets, with defender Emmanuel Fernandez recently joining Rangers.
More signings are expected at Ibrox, with Ipswich Town striker Ali Al-Hamadi the latest star to react to the Gers’ transfer business.
Ali Al-Hamadi reacts as Thelo Aasgaard is signed by Rangers
It was confirmed on Saturday that Thelo Aasgaard had joined Rangers.
The 23-year-old joined Luton Town in January but was unable to prevent their relegation to League One.
As a result, the versatile star has made a quick exit from the Bedfordshire club to move north of the border.
It is believed that Rangers spent £3 million to get Aasgaard to the Glasgow club, after the Norwegian international previously impressed at Wigan Athletic.
Now, the former Liverpool academy star has taken to Instagram (5 July) to express his joy about the recent news.
He said: “New home, new goals, same me. No stopping now.”
Many stars have reacted to the news, including Ipswich Town’s Al-Hamadi, who commented: “Congrats bro.”
Aasgaard is set to be a revolutionary signing for Martin
One of the best things about Aasgaard is his versatility. The 23-year-old can play almost anywhere on the pitch and was used as far back as a defensive midfielder and as far forward as a striker in the last season alone.
On top of this, the fact that he comes into Ibrox as an international will only add to his value in the dressing room.

Now, the task for Martin will be to help Aasgaard recover his form that he enjoyed at Wigan, ready for the upcoming season.
If the Scotsman can achieve this, it will give Rangers a massive advantage early in the campaign.
