Ibrox new boy Goss promises Rangers fans he’ll ‘get stuck in’

-

Rangers new boy Sean Goss has told Light Blues supporters that he has a “nasty” side to his game amid other attributes.

The QPR midfielder signed a loan deal with the Ibrox club until the end of the season.

The German-born 22-year-old moved to the Sky Bet Championsh­ip side from Manchester United last January, but has only made six appearance­s.

While as a consequenc­e few Rangers fans will have seen Goss in action, he told the club’s official website what to expect.

He said: “I’m a defensive midfielder who likes to get on the ball from the back four and spread passes around.

“I also like to think I have goals in my game, so I will be trying to get forward as much as I can as well.

“I’d like to start the play off from the defence, get on the ball as much as I can and dictate the play.

“I also have that nasty side to me as well, and will get stuck in.”

Goss lived with Gers midfielder Jordan Thompson when both were at Old Trafford and said: “I have spoken to him quite a bit and he couldn’t say enough about the club”.

However, he insists he needed little persuading in moving to Glasgow.

“Rangers is a massive football club and being out there seeing the stadium was unbelievab­le,” said Goss.

“So for me it was a no-brainer and I couldn’t wait to get here. I know it is a tough league and there is a lot expected of the Rangers players.

Goss, who joined United from Exeter in 2012, will link up with his new team-mates for the trip to the United States tomorrow where Rangers will play in the Florida Cup.

The Light Blues hope to have midfielder Andy Halliday back from his loan spell at Gabala in time for the club’s trip to Florida.

There is still some paperwork to be completed which would formalise the end of the loan deal with the Azerbaijan club.

The Ibrox club also hope former Raith Rovers and Cowdenbeat­h manager Jimmy Nicholl will have completed his move to the Ibrox side as assistant manager in time to join the squad in the States.

The former Rangers defender is currently Paul Hartley’s number two at Falkirk as well as Michael O’Neill’s assistant with Northern Ireland.
