An Excited Bongani Zungu Shares His Thoughts After Finally Arriving at The Club! The South African international finally joined up with his new teammates after a 14-day quarantine period. Bongani Zungu exclaimed that he is “very happy to be here”.
Bongani Zungu sat down with Rangers TV for his first full interview with the club.
“It means a lot to me and I am very happy to be here to play for a team with such a great, rich history – the most successful team in the world – so I am very happy to be here.
“When I was young in South Africa growing up, my dad used to speak to me and my brother about the club, and I had an idea of the club and I knew about Rangers.
“Of course, when the team was interested in me, I did my research and then I realised it was such a huge club.”
Zungu described the relationship he looks forward to with Steven Gerrard.
“I grew up watching the gaffer and I am very excited to work with him.”
“He is going to help my game, help me grow and help me improve my skills, and hopefully, help the team succeed.”
“I have been working extremely hard while I was still in France, and we were in talks with the gaffer and with the club.
The midfielder has been called up to the Bafana Bafana squad to play Sao Tome.
“It means a lot to me, and I love playing for my country. We are growing as a nation and as a team.
“We have got some quality players in the team and we have players who are willing to succeed both in Africa and to try and go to the World Cup.
“It means a lot to me, and I love playing for South Africa – hopefully, we can be successful.
“Rangers is a massive club and for me to be here, I should improve my qualities and I should improve as a player.
“That will help me get more call-ups to the national team and hopefully, help the team to reach greater heights.”
Bongani Zungu concluded by eulogising the Rangers support.
“It’s been amazing! I felt at home even before I signed, and I had a warm welcome from people on social media and that made me realise that this is a massive club.
“I had a talk with a few players here, and one thing that stands out for them is it is a pity I have come when there are still restrictions [on fans].
“Everybody is talking about the ambiance and how the stadium is when there are fans in, and I am looking forward to experiencing that for myself.”
