Hamza Igamane's move to Rangers has edged closer after the player bid an emotional farewell to his current club.

The 21-year-old striker will seal his move to the Scottish Premiership imminently and is en route to Glasgow.

He has sent a heartfelt thank you to FAR Rabat in Morocco for playing their part in his development up until this point in his career.

Posting on social media, Igamane wrote: "My success comes only through Allah. In Him I trust and Him I turn.

"After an incredible journey with ASFAR, which has shaped me into who I am today, it's time to bid farewell and embark a new challenge. I've had the honour of achieving two titles with the club I deeply love.

"I'm forever grateful to the committee represented by President Mohamed Haramou, and Vice President Al-Ayoubi, to all the Askaries, team-mates, coaches, staff, and everyone who has influenced my career in any way.

"The leader will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for everything."

Philippe Clement is set to land the striker for £2m, as the youngster becomes the club's fifth summer signing.

Meanwhile, Rangers are reportedly set to strike a deal with the Scottish FA to play their home matches at Hampden Park at the beginning of the new season.

Ibrox is currently out of use due to ongoing construction works being carried out on the Copland Road stand.

It became clear around a fortnight ago that the stadium would not be fit for purpose for the opening games of the Scottish Premiership campaign, as well as the club's Champions League qualifiers.

This has left chairman John Bennett the conundrum of trying to find Rangers a temporary stop-gap to meet the demand of the 50,000-strong Rangers home support - leaving realistically only Hampden and Murrayfield as viable options.
