Scott Arfield has heaped praise on Glen Kamara and admits Rangers pulled off the "steal of the Century" in landing him for just £50,000.
The midfielder joined the Ibrox side in January from Dundee after he had previously signed a pre-contract with the club.
The Finland star has quickly become a fan's favourite since breaking into the Rangers team and Arfield is delighted to see him make a name for himself.
Kamara's introduction has freed the Canada captain to move further forward into a more attacking role that has seen him score four goals in his last five games, leading to the April player of the month award.
But it was the former Arsenal youth player that he wanted to lavish praise on as he admitted competition for places in the middle of the park is pushing everyone forward.
He told Ladbrokes: "Glen for 50k is the biggest steal of the century. He's come in and he's took to life. In terms of coming from Dundee with no expectation on him but in terms of how he plays the expectation arises because he's such a good footballer and he's kept that going.
"You've got Jacko (Ryan Jack) in there, Doc (Greg Docherty) down at Shrewsbury and coming back with a good rep, (Jordan) Rossiter has been the same, (Ross) McCrorie, (Graham) Dorrans coming back so in terms of the whole package it's fantastic to see.
"It's exactly what you want, competition for places but when you're in there you've got to take the opportunity and keep it."
Fellow midfielder Steven Davis has also been impressed by Kamara after admitting he had no idea what to expect when he joined the club.
He added: "I didn't know much about Glen before I seen him up close but he's very comfortable on the ball. He can take the ball in tight situations, he's got good game intelligence as well and in his first game you could see the quality he's got and I think he's only going to get better."
