Former Rangers FC striker Greg Stewart has inked a deal with Indian Super League side Jamshedpur FC. After parting ways with Rangers FC, he found himself without a club. Eventually, he accepted the offer made by the ISL club.
Greg played his early football at Rangers academy at the age of 13. He signed his first professional deal with Cowdenbeath FC in 2010 and played 119 fixtures across four seasons with the club netting 36 goals. He joined another Scottish club Dundee in 2014 and once again performed exceptionally well and scored 22 goals from 77 fixtures.
Impressed with his early six years of professional football career Birmingham City FC that competes in the English Premier League (EFL) Champions signed Greg on a three-year deal. However, he could not get to play enough matches the reason being he went out on loan for three consecutive seasons.
