'It’s a dream to play for a club like this': Rangers complete signing of Tuur Rommens
Tuur Rommens claims it was a “very easy” choice to make after joining Rangers from Westerlo on an initial three-and-a-half-year deal.
The 22-year-old Belgian left-back’s move is subject to international clearance and obtaining a work permit.
The Ibrox club confirmed on Sunday 22-year-old Danish midfielder Tochi Chukwuani had completed his move from Sturm Graz and head coach Danny Rohl has further strengthened his squad in his bid to win the William Hill Premiership.
Rommens told Rangers’ official website: “I’m very happy to be here.
“It’s a dream to play for a club like this, and I only have positive feelings.
“Everyone knows Rangers, and when a club like this is interested in you, then you want to be part of this club.
“The most important thing is that they believe in me, and that’s why I have come here.
“It’s a big club with a lot of fans, and they always play in Europe. It was very easy for me to make this choice.”
It is understood Rommens is able to train and play immediately, with the Light Blues hosting League Two side Annan Athletic in the Scottish Cup on Friday.
However, given the effects of a previous knock and the good form of Jayden Meghoma, his introduction to the side will be managed as a precaution and he is expected to be fully ready in three to four weeks.
Rohl said: “I am delighted to welcome Tuur to the club.
“He is a young and hungry player who adds real quality and physicality to the group and increases competition in a key area of the pitch.
“We believe he will be a fantastic addition to the side and an important asset in the years ahead.”
It has been widely reported the Govan club have agreed a loan deal with Wolfsburg for Danish winger Andreas Skov Olsen.
