Rangers are to sign Croat Antonio Colak after it was confirmed the PAOK striker will fly in today for a medical in advance of a £2M transfer.
Assuming the former Malmo loanee passes said medical tests, he will put pen to paper and become Rangers’ first proper summer signing, as a replacement for the outgone Cedric Itten and for extra striking options given Rangers’ dearth of them at present.
The German-born striker has divided fans already with his arrival, with a strong number considering him not good enough and being underwhelmed by this signing, but the proof is in the pudding, and if he’s good enough for Gio he’s good enough for us.
End of the day, Morelos desperately needs quality competition, and as present isn’t even fit, so right now as things stand, Rangers have zero pure strikers.
Meaning Colak is a rather necessary signing to say the least.
He will, as a Ger and as a Gio signing, get our full support and hopefully he wins over his doubters in the support who want Messi and nothing less.
