# Rangers: Fans take to Twitter to revel in Andy King signing news

**Steven Gerrard continues to add to his Rangers side as the Gers look to win the Scottish Premiership and prevent ten in a row in the process. To do that, he’s making movements in the market, and the Bluenoses are closing in on Andy King.**

The Leicester City man is nearing a loan move to Ibrox [according to Chris Jack of The Evening Times](https://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/17837443.rangers-set-clinch-deal-leicester-midfielder-andy-king/?ref=twtrec) but the way in which the player will sign looks like making a mark, as the report claims that former Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has endorsed the move to his ex-club’s biggest rivals.

King would make for a top signing at Rangers too. The midfield man has all the experience of playing top-flight football in England, having made [94 appearances](https://www.premierleague.com/players/8976/Andy-King/stats), as well as the experience of winning, as he was a part of Leicester City’s 2015/16 Premier League-winning campaign.

You can read the Gers’ verdict on the King move here:

> What type of midfielder is he ? Think it will be a cracking signing premier league winner only a couple of years ago no brainier

The Bluenoses seem delighted with the imminent signing of King and it will be interesting to see if he can star in the Scottish Premiership.
