Rangers fans have been blown away by incredible comments made by Fashion Sakala ahead of his summer move to Ibrox.
The Gers announced a pre-contract deal for Sakala earlier this month and he has already played his last match for KV Oostende, with their season finishing last weekend.
The pacy attacker started his career in his native Zambia before joining KVO in 2018 following a season with Spartak Moscow Reserves.
In clips from a new Studio Ken interview posted on social media on Thursday, the Ibrox-bound player discusses his childhood, signing for Rangers and how he sees himself.
“Honestly, I came from a very poor family,” said Sakala. “I came from a very poor family and it was very difficult for us to survive. For us to survive, I was the one killing animals in the bush – I was the hunter.”
“Yeah, it was such an amazing feeling,” he added after being asked about signing his Ibrox deal. “After Steven Gerrard talked to me, I believed that this was the right time for me to make a move to Rangers.”
“I will never consider myself as a rich person. What I want in my life is not to celebrate my riches, it’s to celebrate the great personality that I have towards people.”

Here’s a selection of reactions from Twitter:
Sakala scored 16 goals and notched five assists for KV Oostende from 34 appearances in all competitions during the 2020/21 season.
