Glen Kamara Leeds United medical 'booked' as Rangers exit looms

Glen Kamara is on the verge of leaving Rangers.

The Finland international is booked in for a medical at Leeds United.

The midfielder has been frozen out of first team picture at Ibrox by Michael Beale as the club looks to move him on to pastures new.

It's believed that Rangers will be due around £5.5million for the 27-year-old should the deal go through with the Championship club.

There shouldn't be any issues with that though, as transfer guru Fabrizio Romano claims that Kamara has already agreed to personal terms with the Yorkshire club.

He will undergo his medical today and is likely to be announced tomorrow in time for the transfer deadline.

Rangers will make a hefty profit on the player who they bought from Dundee for £50,000 in January 2019.

He was a first pick for Steven Gerrard during his time at the club and the Finn played a key role in the club's Premiership title success during the 2020/21 campaign.

He's set to leave having made almost 200 appearances in a Rangers jersey, scoring nine goals and providing 11 assists in that time.

Meanwhile, former Rangers defender Filip Helander has found a new club.

The Swedish centre back left the Ibrox side at the end of his contract in May earlier this year.

He hasn't played competitive minutes since he picked up an injury against St Mirren in April 2022.

Helander, 30, joined Rangers from Bologna in 2019 for a fee of around £3million.

But he didn't have his troubles to seek with injuries and this ultimately led to his departure.

Now, he has taken the next step in his career by signing a one-year deal with Danish side Odense Boldklub.

Helander said: "It is a great opportunity for me. It's a good club with really good support, and there are good opportunities here, and hopefully I can help redeem that, says Filip Helander and continues:

"I bring some professionalism and as I get older and have a lot of experience, I can also help the younger players."
