Dessers not enough? Former Scotland midfielder urges Rangers to sign more strikers

Dessers not enough? Former Scotland midfielder urges Rangers to sign more strikers

Former Sunderland and Scotland midfielder, Derek Ferguson, has urged Rangers to sign another striker in the summer transfer window despite Cyriel Dessers' exploits for the club, Soccernet.ng reports.

The 30-year-old striker has always been a recipient of consistent criticism since he moved to Ibrox, but he gave himself a good pat on the back by winning the SPFL Golden Boot in the just-concluded season.

Despite his brilliant display that saw him score 29 goals and provide seven assists in all competitions for Rangers, Derek Ferguson believes the club will succeed next season if they're not solely dependent on Dessers for goals.

“Rangers need more strikers. Dessers had great stats this season, but I’ve seen him regularly. Barry [Ferguson] was defensive of Dessers and talked him up. I’d like to see him stay, but I’d also like to see others join him – we need three or four here.

“There’ll be people behind the scenes looking at strikers across Europe, and the more quality, the better. We need this type of signing, definitely,” the former Rangers midfielder said in quotes revealed by Ibrox News.
