Rangers sign defender Emmanuel Fernandez
Rangers have confirmed the signing of defender Emmanuel Fernandez from Peterborough.
The 23-year-old joins the club on a four-year deal.
He is the second signing the club announced on Wednesday, following the addition of Joe Rothwell.
Fernandez is Russell Martin's third signing of the window, with Max Aarons also in the door.
He started his career with Brentford, before joining Peterborough 2021.
The centre-back made 42 appearances for the League One outfit last season.
Russell Martin told the club's website: “Emmanuel is a young defender with a huge amount of potential, and I am excited to welcome him to the club.
“He has a strong physical presence, is a commanding defender and I believe in this environment we can help him develop and provide him with the opportunities to take his game to the next level.
“I’m looking forward to welcoming him into the group and getting to work.”
Fernandez added: “I am honoured, it is a huge club with a great fanbase and I think I can kickstart my career and have a good journey here.
“I was shocked when I heard about Rangers because it is such a big club but it was the place I wanted to be.
“I haven’t played at this level, there will be a lot of life changes for me, but it is something I want to be part of and I can’t wait to get started.”
