GLASGOW, Aug 5 (Reuters) - Norway defender Henning Berg has signed
a one-year contract with Scottish champions Rangers after passing a
medical on Tuesday and is now racing to get fit for next week's
Champions League qualifier.
The former Blackburn Rovers and Manchester United player, who has
spent the past 10 seasons in the English premier league, has played
more than 40 games in Europe and Rangers manager Alex McLeish will
be looking to use the centre back's experience.
Rangers face either FC Copenhagen or Maltese side Sliema Wanderers
in the Champions League third qualifying round later this month with
the Danish side in pole position after a 4-1 win in the first leg of
their second qualifying round tie.
"We're delighted to have reached agreement with Henning Berg and I
know Alex (McLeish) is looking forward to working with him," said
Rangers director of football business Martin Bain on the club's
official website.
The 33-year-old defender, who was released by Blackburn at the end
of last season, has been capped 95 times by Norway and is still a
valued member of the country's squad as they battle with Denmark to
reach the finals of Euro 2004.
