Madjid Bougherra is looking forward to Rangers' pre-season games and a game with one of his Algeria team-mates. "Pre-season is going to be great," Bougherra told Rangers' official website. "Obviously we are playing Paris St Germain and I was born in France so that will be special."

He added: "The Portsmouth game will be the same for me because I will be coming up against my friend Nadir Belhadj.

"While we were away with Algeria last week, we were talking about the game after we found out that we will be playing each other.

"That is good because after that match, we have a game with our country the following midweek so we can travel to that together and it will be fun.

"I have been teasing Nadir - he is very quick so I told him he needs to be careful against me because I am determined to win."
