Calvin Bassey's immediate impact at Ajax has been praised by teammate and former Manchester United defender Daley Blind ahead of facing Rangers tomorrow.
The Ibrox club start their Champions League group stage campaign away at the Eredivisie champions on Wednesday night and will come up against the Nigerian international they sold for a fee in excess of £20 million during this summer's transfer window. Blind has been impressed by the defender and says that despite a strong start to their domestic campaign, they'll need to be on their guard against Giovanni van Bronckhorst's Rangers.
He said: “ Calvin’s a funny guy and he’s always happy. He brings positive energy and he is also very eager to learn and he asks a lot of questions. So we talk a lot about it and how we can support each other on and off the pitch. He’s a great talent and I’m happy he’s here.
