Rangers fans have been waiting to catch a glimpse of new signing Hamza Igamane.
The Moroccan striker, 21, joined the club this summer from local side FAR Rabat with the Gers reportedly paying £1.7m to bring Igamane to Ibrox.
But so far the club’s fans are yet to see Hamza Igamane training with his Rangers teammates and in a tight summer with tight budgets, it’s been a source of frustration for plenty.
Now, Rangers manager Philippe Clement has dropped his biggest clue yet about the progress of the striker as the club’s latest training video drops.
Igamane in Rangers training
Rangers are gearing up to face off against Dynamo Kiev in Champions League QR3 in Lublin, Poland.
As Rangers learned their potential opponents in the Champions League Playoff round, the club were preparing a video of the team being put their paces at Auchenhowie.
In an eight-minute clip, Rangers fans will see the Ibrox first-team overcoming some classic Scottish weather in preparation for the game.
And interestingly Gers fans will also spot several glimpses of Hamza Igamane for the first time since the striker’s summer move to Ibrox.
The appearance of the striker will put to bed lingering rumours about Hamza Igamane being out for the foreseeable future.
Philippe Clement responded to more questions about the striker over the weekend and explained that the 21-year-old would need time to get up to speed with the intensity of training in Glasgow.
“I have been really clear about that from the first second that he came in,” Clement told the press before the clash with Hearts.
“This is a young boy with a lot of potential but who never trained at the level we are training now.
“I can make the fans really happy to put him directly in tomorrow and then he gets injured and they cannot enjoy him the next couple of months. That is not the idea.
“For the moment he is more in an individual programme to make him better and then to get him in the first team squad training and afterwards to get him playing minutes.
“There is a way to go with him. His mentality is great.
“For him it is like a new world is opening up and every day he is experiencing something new for himself.
“He is really hungry and ambitious to become better and we see a really good evolution in the short time he is here.”
No sign of latest Rangers injury blow
There are also another few points of interest from the Rangers Training Camp video.
The first is the clear absence of Colombian winger Oscar Cortes after the attacker went off injured v Hearts.
The Gers signed a £4m loan-to-buy extension to sign Cortes this summer despite the winger missing the bulk of the first six months of his Rangers career through injury.
Starting his first game since being injured v Kilmarnock in February, Cortes pulled up in the first half and was subbed minutes into the second period.
Rangers fans are nervously awaiting an update.
On a more positive note, Zak Lovelace was also clearly in the Rangers training video as he marks his return from injury.
Dujon Sterling – who hasn’t been since the pre-season friendly with Manchester United – was also included in the training clip.
The young English striker went off stretchered after being handed a start v St Mirren last season before being cruelly injured again after returning to B Team action.
