RANGERS Football Club can today announce the signing of Tochi Chukwuani from Sturm Graz on an initial three-and-a-half-year deal, subject to international clearance and the obtainment of a work permit.
A 22-year-old Danish midfielder who lifted the Austrian Bundesliga last season, Chukwuani becomes the first addition to Danny Röhl’s squad in the January transfer window.
The midfielder is a product of the FC Nordsjælland academy, making his debut for the side at 16-years-old and becoming the sixth youngest player to feature in Danish Superliga history.
Chukwuani played alongside Mohamed Diomande and Oliver Antman at the Danish outfit and boasted the honour of being the club’s youngster goalscorer in league history when he netted against eventual champions FC Midtjylland at the age of 17.
His development continued apace, joining Lyngby in the summer of 2022 and making over 50 appearances for the club.
The Danish midfielder impressed sufficiently for Sturm Graz to secure his signature ahead of the 2024/25 campaign, featuring over 30 times for the club as they lifted the league title and competed in the UEFA Champions League.
In the meantime, Chukwuani has represented Denmark from Under-16 to Under-21 level, captaining his country in their 2-2 draw with Finland at the Under-21 European Championships last summer.
Speaking after signing for the club, Chukwuani commented: “I’m super excited. Rangers are a huge club and I can’t wait to hear the roar at Ibrox.
“It’s a historic club with a huge fanbase. There are huge expectations, and this is something as a footballer you want to play in front of.
“It gives motivation every weekend to go and give 100 per cent and do what you can to put smiles on people’s faces.”
Head Coach, Danny Röhl, added: “We are really excited to bring Tochi to the club.
“He is a player who strengthens our group and offers specific qualities that we believe will enhance our midfield department.
“With experience of European competition and winning titles, as well as his technical and physical attributes, he knows exactly what is required to thrive at a club like Rangers.”
