New Rangers signing Eduardo Herrera has insisted that manager Pedro Caixinha's phone call was as important as the history of the club in helping him make his decision to join the Gers.
The striker previously played under the Portuguese manager while on a season-long loan at Mexican side Santos Laguna three years ago.
And once he came to know about the interest from his former manager, the Mexican insists that he had no hesitation about making the decision to head to Scotland.
Along with that, the club's history and the environment on offer at Ibrox, Herrera insists, made the move easier.
“I am really happy to be here at such a big club and I am ready to be a part of this project", the 28-year-old told his club' official website.

“I didn’t think twice about joining, it is a big club, it is a club which has a lot of history of winning titles and I think it’s very important for a player to be ambitious and join a club like that.
“Pedro was important because he called me and he told me if I wanted to join him here at Rangers I could.
“The club and the history is very important to me, I looked up the stadium, Ibrox, and it is an amazing stadium.
"When I imagined playing there it was a big part of my decision to come here."
As far as his goals for the season are concerned, Herrera said that he is looking to continue working hard and making a lot of sacrifices so that he can bring a lot of goals to the team and thus help them in winning trophies.
“I will bring a lot of work and a lot of sacrifice and hopefully a lot of goals!
"Playing as a striker you also look to score goals but first of all I will try to do my best and work every hard for the team."
Herrera joins a long list of players who have already moved to Ibrox this summer as Rangers look to rediscover their former glories.
