Cyriel Dessers Thrilled to Work Under Rangers’ Interim Manager Barry Ferguson
Rangers striker Cyriel Dessers has expressed his excitement about working under the club’s interim manager, Barry Ferguson, following a dramatic 4-2 comeback victory against Kilmarnock on Wednesday night.
The Light Blues found themselves two goals down before staging an impressive turnaround, with Dessers bagging a brace to mark Ferguson’s winning debut as caretaker manager.
Ferguson’s Influence at Rangers
Ferguson, a club legend who won five league titles and five Scottish Cups during his time as a player, stepped into the role after the dismissal of Philippe Clement. His appointment has already energized the squad, with Dessers acknowledging his legacy and leadership.
“I’ve seen him (Ferguson) in the Hall of Fame, obviously,” said Dessers. “I know what he did for the club—five league titles, five Scottish Cups, all these things—so that speaks for itself.”
The Nigerian forward also noted the impact of having a former player of Ferguson’s stature leading the team:
“He’s a big name at this club, a big personality, and it’s good that he’s around now. He knows the club through and through.”
A Turning Point for Rangers?
Ferguson’s appointment comes at a critical time for Rangers, as they look to revive their season and challenge for silverware. His first test as interim boss showed promise, particularly in the team’s resilience and attacking display.
Dessers, who has faced criticism earlier in the season, delivered when it mattered, proving that he can be a key player in Ferguson’s setup.
Looking Ahead
With Rangers still in the hunt for domestic and European success, the next few games under Ferguson’s leadership will determine whether he can steady the ship and earn a permanent managerial role.
