​Davies excited for Rangers adventure after disappointing Liverpool spell

Departing Liverpool star Ben Davies has opened up about his feelings at signing for Rangers.

The defender has signed a four-year contract with the Scottish giants.

Davies spent the past 18 months at Liverpool, but failed to make an impression on the first team under manager Jurgen Klopp.

"The size of the club, everyone said to me I wouldn't realise it until I got here. I've just done a tour now and it's incredible," he told Rangers' social channels.

"I'm just about to turn 27 and I want to turn what I think has been a good career into a great one. I've got my best years in front of me now.

"All my career, I've looked to take different opportunities. Going out on loan, taking moves when they've come about and not just staying in my comfort zone. That's going to help me going forward. I think this is the best place possible for me. The expectation, levels and standards that the club has are exceptional and that can only bring the best out of me.

"I've obviously seen Ibrox on TV but this is the first time I've been here. It's like when you first go up the steps when you go to your first game. Wow. And that was with an empty stadium so I'm looking forward to the fans coming in and the rest of the season."
