Rangers to sign Zambian striker Sakala on free transfer – 13 goals for KV Oostende

Scottish titleholders Rangers are on the verge of completing their first summer signing. Following Scottish media reports about a possible transfer of Zambian striker Fashion Sakala from KV Oostende to the Scottish Premiership in recent days, Transfermarkt can confirm that the deal is all but done.

Only the official confirmation is pending. The 24-year-old will sign a four-year deal with Rangers. Sakala, who has scored 13 goals for the Belgian first division club this season, is available on a free transfer – his contract at Oostende expires on June 30. LOSC Lille were linked with the centre-forward as well recently.

SirBalon endorses this signing. 

On a more serious note, 28 appearances with 13 goals and 3 assists looks like a pretty consistent performer.

From what's been written about him it sounds like this should be a good long term signing.
