Ex-Rangers keeper Niemi backing Everton target Kamara for Prem return

Former Rangers goalkeeper Antti Niemi believes compatriot Glen Kamara could easily play for a top-six club in the Premier League.

The Finnish midfielder - who spent time at Arsenal's academy - has shone at Ibrox since arriving from Dundee in January 2019.

Kamara has been linked with Everton recently, and Niemi believes he would have no problems playing down south.

“I certainly feel as though he is a bit different and offers a great option to that Rangers team.

“It is very obvious that he understands football, when he receives the ball he is already steps ahead and knows exactly what he wants to do with the ball.

“When you watch how he plays football, it looks so simple, but he executes everything so brilliantly and he really is a joy to watch.

“I have no doubt that he could go down and play for the biggest clubs in the English Premier League, Bundesliga or Serie A. He has the ability to play for any good team.

“If you put Glen Kamara in a top six Premier League team would he look out of place? My answer is simply no, he would look very good."
