Former Scottish Premiership champions Rangers Glasgow Football Club, has signed a Flying Eagles invitee Thompson Ishaka.
The Scottish giants confirmed the signing of the teenager on its verified Twitter handle last Friday afternoon.
According to reports, Ishaka last year had a trial at the club after impressing in a tournament representing Brooke House Academy London; but no decision about signing him was made. He then got injured and was sidelined from competitive action.
Thompson was invited to the Flying Eagles camp ahead of an AFCON U-20 tournament in Egypt. He spent three weeks with the Junior national team but didn’t make the final list.
After leaving the national team camp, Ishaka was handed a second invitation by Rangers, this time he travelled to Morocco with the youth team for a tourney.
He was impressive, and convinced the club’s heirrachy into handing him a permanent contract.
According what was obtained from the club’s official statement, the former Riverlane of Enugu player, will spend two years with the Light Blue.
