Rangers medical completed as 6ft 3 striker set to be unveiled as latest Gerrard signing
Roma striker Umar Sadiq has undergone a medical at Rangers and is set to be unveiled as Steven Gerrard’s eighth signing of the season.
The Daily Mail claims that he still needs a work permit before he can confirm his season-loan move.
The 21-year-old Nigerian striker, who has won six caps for his country in the Olympics, has made six senior appearances for Roma and scored two goals.
He joined Roma for £2.25m from Spezia in 2016, and has enjoyed loan spells at Bologna and Torino. Gerrard is now set to offer him a massive stage at Ibrox that could give his career a big boost.
The striker stands 6ft 3in and is a towering presence, who should fit into the Scottish Premiership perfectly.
