General manager Pavel Nedvěd welcomed the decision, describing the Rangers forward as an intriguing addition who broadens the attacking options and expressing anticipation about working with him.

Naderi, born and raised in Dresden to a Bulgarian father and Czech mother, framed the choice as a personal step rooted in his close ties to Czechia. He expressed excitement at joining the camp, meeting his new team-mates and staff, and intends to give everything to help achieve success together.

The striker joined Rangers from Hansa Rostock in February.
