GAARD OF HONOUR

Thelo is blown away by stature of his new club

- BY ROBBIE COPELAND

OVERJOYED Thelo Aasgaard has officially signed for Rangers - and told fans it was an easy decision to sign up for the Russell Martin revolution.

The Ibrox boss has secured the Norway cap on a four-year deal, with the club shelling out £3.5million to land the Luton playmaker.

With Emmanuel Fernandez signing from Peterborough this week, the new Ibrox owners have spent £6m on deals, along with Max Aarons and Joe Rothwell from Bournemouth as well as Lyall Cameron from Dundee.

Now Aasgaard swaps League One for a shot at the Champions League where Gers face Panathinaikos in qualifying later this month. It's been a long wait for the 23-year-old but he is buzzing to get the deal over the line at last.

Aasgaard said: "I'm delighted to be here. I have been waiting for it, but I'm glad to get it over the line.

"When I heard about Rangers I was over the moon. I've played against the manager's teams a few times and I always pictured myself in his team and so to be here now is really good.

"It was an easy decision. I love the number of games here.

It's like the EFL and I love playing.
