Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson seems pleased to see Cyriel Dessers make the move to Rangers.

Cyriel Dessers has joined Rangers from Cremonese in the summer transfer window.

According to The Scotsman, Scottish Premiership club Rangers have paid Italian outfit Cremonese a transfer fee of £4.5 million to secure the services of Dessers.

The 28-year-old striker has taken to Instagram to express his delight at joining Rangers.

And his decision to move to the Scottish giants appears to have pleased Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson.

Nelson, who has only just signed a new contract with Arsenal, played with Dessers at Feyenoord during the 2021-22 season.

The winger was on loan at the Dutch club from Arsenal for that campaign.

The Nigeria international striker moved to Cremonese in Italy from Genk in the summer of 2022.

The striker made 19 starts and seven substitute appearances in Serie A for Cremonese last season.

Dessers scored six goals and gave two assists in those games.

Rangers will be aiming to win the Scottish Premiership title next season and will also be aiming to progress to the group stage of the UEFA Champions League.
