Rangers complete signing of Ghanian striker

Rangers have completed the signing of Leicester City youth striker Joe Dodoo, it has been revealed to Ibroxnoise sources.

The forward, out of contract at the King Power Stadium, was offered an extension to remain with Claudio Ranieri’s men, but has opted instead to join Mark Warburton and Rangers after impressing in training.

Yet to be officially announced, the deal is said to be a four-year contract, with an as-yet undisclosed development fee the only cost due to the same cross-border youth rules which endowed Rangers with the services of Jordan Rossiter.

The striker has stated he is happy as a traditional 9, but is equally adept on the wings and considers himself an adaptable forward much in the mould the Magic Hat likes to see from his front men.

It is unknown if the Ghanian-born attacker will be in the squad for Saturday’s trip to Motherwell in the League Cup, but it now leaves just one more position requiring filling and Warburton’s summer work will be considered complete.
