Graham Roberts believes John Lundstram will prove to be a “brilliant signing” for Rangers.
Steven Gerrard has bolstered his squad ahead of their Scottish Premiership title defence by welcoming Lundstram to Ibrox.
The 27-year-old became a free agent earlier this summer after turning down a new deal at Sheffield United.
Will Rangers win the league this season?
Yes!
No!
Lundstram, who made 28 Premier League appearances as the Blades suffered relegation to the Championship last season, opted to head to Scotland despite offers to remain in English football’s top flight.
There were reports of other clubs being interested but the opportunity to feature in the Champions League and compete for a league title proved too much for Lundstram to turn down.
Gerrard has also secured the services of Zambia international striker Fashion Sakala, who has joined from Belgian side KV Oostende, but former Rangers defender Roberts is particularly excited to see how Lundstram will settle in at Ibrox.
Speaking exclusively to TIF, Roberts said: “He’s a brilliant player and I liked him at Sheffield United.
“I think he could play very well up there. Rangers are in a good position at the moment and players want to play for Steven Gerrard.
“John Lundstram is a brilliant signing for them, absolutely brilliant.”
