“But we know his qualities. He’s very strong and it is very tough to play against him.”
Barisic predicts a great future for Bassey
The 22-year-old, who has been a fan favourite and loved by his manager, Giovanni van Bronckhorst, played a key role as Rangers reached their first European Cup final in 14 years after booking a ticket to the Europa League final.

“I’m pleased that he has improved this much and I think he has a very bright future,” he added.
“He has the ability but even more important is that he is very calm and down to earth.
“He is strong mentally and he always wants to learn from everybody and wants to listen.”
“I think that is a thing which is even more important than all the ability he has. This is the main reason I think he has a very bright future in football.”
