He never played at a higher level, but went on to enjoy great success at Ibrox.<\/p>\n<p>The Nigeria international made 149 appearances in all competitions for Rangers, scoring 26 goals and providing 25 assists, before being sold to Southampton for \u00a36m in 2022 after three successful years in Glasgow.<\/p>\n<p>Aribo was an important player for Steven Gerrard and Giovanni van Bronckhorst, who joined him directly from the third-tier side, but he proved that quality matters more than a player&#8217;s league, winning the Scottish Premiership title and the SFA Cup with Gers and scoring in the Europa League final. <\/p>\n<p>This shows that Naderi should be judged on his individual quality rather than the quality of his league. The recruiting team and Roll have clearly seen enough in this move and considering the fee behind it to suggest he is ready to step up. <\/p>\n<p>In La Liga this season, the tall German center forward has shown plenty of promise with his play as both a scorer and goal creator from his number nine position. <\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"\" align=\"\" summary=\"\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\" style=\"text-align:center;\">\n<p>25\/26 3.

This means he can bring players along to create his own shots, rather than relying on others to set him up. <\/p>\n<p>None of Rangers&#8217; current strikers have scored more than four goals or provided more than two assists in the Premiership this season, which goes to show just how dominant Yusef Cermiti and Bojan Miovski have been. <\/p>\n<p>If Naderi can carry over the form he showed in La Liga into the Premiership, the 22-year-old striker could be Role&#8217;s best option in the number nine position. <\/p>\n<p>Aribo is a perfect example of how signings from the third tier should not be taken lightly or ignored, and hopefully Naderi will be the next example. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glasgow Rangers have not signed a first-team member since announcing Andreas Skov-Olsen on the night of their 5-0 win over Annan Athletic.
