I Have A Good Feeling About Gers

DEFENDER Carly Girasoli says she has a good feeling about the coming season after becoming the latest new Rangers signing.

The 17-year-old said it felt like a dream come true to put pen to paper on her first professional deal, joining from current SWPL champions Glasgow City.

Speaking to RangersTV she said: “It feels amazing, it’s really good what is happening here and I am delighted to be a part of it.

“I think they have got good ambitions for the club and I think next season is going to be really good.

“I feel I can bring my defensive role, clean sheets and really just keep the ball out of our net. I feel this season is going to be a really good one and a real competitive one.”

The Scotland Under-19 internationalist started out at Celtic before spending three-years at Glasgow City. She feels the new investment at Rangers will help push for a more competitive SWPL.

She continued: “It is a really good time to sign my first professional contract and I just can’t wait for this season to start.

“It will make it a lot more competitive, especially up the top end of the table with a few more teams now competing at the top it is going to be really exciting this season.

“I feel like our squad is strong enough to compete at the top end of the league and I think silverware definitely isn’t out of our reach.

“The coaches and the players have been really welcoming so that has made it a lot easier for me to come in and I feel I have fitted in well.

“I can’t wait to get started now I just love playing games and the season is starting soon so I’m really looking forward to it.”
