The Finland midfielder had signed a pre-contract in early January but Rangers sealed a deal with Dundee in the final hours of the transfer window to hasten his move. Gerrard said: 'It's a bonus for us. It's another excellent player who can join our squad and it certainly makes us become stronger. Rangers sealed a deal with Dundee in the final hours of the transfer window to hasten his move Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has described the early arrival of Glen Kamara as a bonus 'Even (Thursday) afternoon I thought we were going to have to wait until the summer and we were prepared to wait, but when I got the call it was obviously a very nice phone call and a big bonus for myself.' The 23-year-old former Arsenal player will not make his debut against Ladbrokes Premiership bottom club St Mirren on Saturday. 'He hasn't done much over the past three weeks,' Gerrard said. 'He's had no game time and he hasn't really trained much. We will build him up to get him up to speed, but you can see in training the quality is there to see. 'I love my midfield players who play with their head up, who look to pass forward and make things happen, and I like my midfielders to win the ball back and be aggressive. We believe we can help Glen improve and find the next level but the coaches he has had previously have done a fantastic job.'
