Brahim Hemdani
Brahim Hemdani (born 15 March 1978) is a French professional football player of Algerian origin who currently plays for Rangers in the Scottish Premier League.
Hemdani, who has been capped for France U21’s, also has the ability to decide whether he wishes to play for his home country or the national team of Algeria, though he has declined the chance to be included as part of their squad on several occasions.
He started his career with Cannes where he spent two seasons before a transfer to RC Strasbourg where he spent three seasons. He then joined Marseille where he helped them to the UEFA Cup final in 2004. He joined Rangers on 14 June 2005 on a Bosman transfer and signed a four-year contract.
Hemdani suffered greatly from injury problems during his debut season at Rangers, making his first appearance as late as October against Dundee United. Hemdani was a regular in the Rangers midfield from then on and helped the club reach the last 16 of the Champions League for the first time in the clubs history, despite the club finishing third in the SPL and ending the season without a trophy.
Hemdani is expected to be a key player for Rangers under the management of the fellow Frenchman Paul Le Guen in season 2006-07.
