Rangers announced a glamour friendly against West Ham United at Ibrox as part of their pre-season plans.
But it might be a bit frosty for one of the Hammers stars after comments he made 12 months ago. Tomas Soucek was one of the Premier League stars name checked on the Ibrox side’s website as they talked up the quality of David Moyes’ side. It read: “The likes of Declan Rice, Jarrod Bowen, Saïd Benrahma and Tomas Soucek are just some of the names in their squad who could be taking to the field at Ibrox.”
However, the Czech Republic star wasn’t so popular with Rangers fans following his backing of shamed countryman Ondrej Kudela after his race row involving Glen Kamara in Slavia Prague’s ugly Europa League clash at Ibrox Stadium. Kudela was banned by UEFA for 10 games after allegedly calling Kamara a ‘monkey’ but escaped escape prosecution over the controversial incident.
