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.
