BEVERLY HILLS, July 26, (THEWILL) – Nigerian defender, Leon Balogun, who just signed a one-year contract with Rangers FC in the Scottish Premier League, says he is ready for the new challenge and can’t wait to get started.
The lanky center-back has an option to extend the contract for another year.
“I think it is an advantage for me not to be coming off 14 days or 21 days break so I can come straight to fit into it, work with the team and get to know the team,” Balogun told Rangers TV.
“The league starts next week, so I am looking forward to joining the squad and integrating as quickly as possible.”

The Super Eagles player is also enthusiastic about playing in front of 50,000 Rangers fans.
He continued: “Obviously, to have this kind of crowd behind you in every game at home is amazing.
“I have been lucky enough to experience it, or something similar before in my career at some stages, but I just want to experience it as everyone has been telling me you have no idea just how big it is, and I am looking forward to getting started and getting in touch with them.
“Hopefully, we can have some successes together.”
