Derby Expect Miller Deal

Thu 05 Jun, 10:09 AM


Derby chairman Adam Pearson expects Kenny Miller to seal his return to Rangers next week.

The clubs have agreed a fee thought to be close to £2million for the Scotland striker.

Pearson told the Daily Express: "The two clubs have agreed a deal and we are reasonably happy with the package, so it is now down to Kenny to sort things out with Rangers.

"I don't envisage any problems because Kenny is keen to go to Rangers and Rangers are keen to sign him.

"We have had one firm offer and three serious enquiries about signing him but Kenny told us he wasn't interested because he wants to go to Rangers."

The former Celtic player's return is unpopular with large sections of the Rangers support.

But the 28-year-old excelled under Rangers boss Walter Smith when the pair worked together with the national team.

  1. If Walter Smith thinks Kenny Miller can do a job for Rangers then that will do for me.
    When you sit back and think where we are now after the the Paul Le Guen saga, you have to trust Walter on this one because he has not made many mistakes.

  4. dont think that this a good move on rangers part , kenny has proved whilst he is good at running the channels he just cant score enough goals and that is what we are looking for . the boy is being really brave to stick to his guns and want this move because it will upset a lot of fans , fair enough though it is time to move on . heard this rumour when he left celtic that the move was on then ,,,, strange one walter but whatever you think is right for us is alright by me ..
