Nigeria’s Super Eagles have congratulated defender Emmanuel Fernandez following his emergence as Player of the Year at Rangers FC.

The 24-year-old was confirmed as the club’s top performer on Monday after an outstanding debut season at Ibrox. Fernandez joined Rangers from Peterborough United last summer and has since established himself as a key figure in the heart of defence.

Renowned for his composure and physical presence, the centre-back has delivered a string of commanding performances, while also proving dangerous in attacking set-piece situations. His consistency and impact have made him a fan favourite among the Light Blues faithful.

Reacting to the accolade, the Nigeria national football team took to their official X account to celebrate the achievement, writing: “Congratulations @EFernandez17_ on winning the Rangers Men’s Player of the Year Award last night.”

Fernandez’s influence has not been limited to defensive duties. He has contributed five league goals in 23 appearances, underlining his importance at both ends of the pitch.

His impressive club form has also translated onto the international stage. The defender recently earned his first senior cap for Nigeria, making his debut against Iran last month—a milestone that further highlights his rapid rise in the game.

With this latest recognition, Fernandez continues to enhance his growing reputation as one of Nigeria’s most promising defensive talents.
