Fernandez Downplays Rangers Exit Rumors
Rangers' Emmanuel Fernandez has said he's not considering a move away from the club, despite being linked with top European teams. The 24-year-old centre-back arrived at Ibrox from Peterborough United for £3.5million last summer and has quickly established himself as a key figure in the Rangers squad.
Fernandez was voted the club's Player of the Season and included in the Scottish Premiership Team of the Season. He's been linked with Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen, among others, but the Nigeria international is not in a rush to leave Rangers for another club.
"I just focus on what's going on here. If you asked me this question a year ago, it would have been the same answer," Fernandez said. "I've got four years left here and I want to enjoy it. I want to win."
Fernandez is looking forward to working under new manager Derek McInnes, who has been trying to bring togetherness to the team. The centre-back has been impressed with McInnes' approach and is excited to see the team's progress under his leadership.
"I'm excited to work with the new manager. It's been good working with him so far," Fernandez added. "He's trying to bring togetherness to the team. With hard work, I feel like we've got a season to look forward to."
Fernandez is eager to improve his game and support the team in their quest for success. He's been working on his box defending and is looking forward to implementing the new skills he's learned under McInnes.
"I feel like the stuff that he said is stuff that I knew I needed to work on. During the off-season, I wanted to work on it, but I didn't really get much time due to internationals. But that's why you have pre-season and where you can improve on those things," Fernandez explained.
