	Scottish Football - 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.
		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: TURNING THE CORNER - [Sunday Herald]
		Brahim Hamdani arrived at Rangers after a charm offensive by David Murray and Sean Connery but the start of his Ibrox career was hampered by injury.
		Alex McLeish, who had first been alerted to Hemdani’s prowess during Marseille’s impressive run in the 2004 Uefa Cup, was convinced he had signed a key player to help Rangers retain their league title and mount a serious European campaign.
		Hemdani seems an unlikely character to be cast as a malcontent.

		TO hear Brahim Hemdani discuss his pre-Ibrox football life is to be reminded why there was such a hoo-ha about the midfielder's Sean Connery-assisted move to Rangers last summer.
		Hemdani's problems began when he sustained a "minor" groin problem in a pre-season friendly against Ipswich Town.
		A month later a hamstring injury caused Hemdani to disappear from the scene again and, unfairly, it was speculated whether his delicate disposition had been a factor in a bitter fall-out with Marseille manager Philippe Troussier last season.

		Reports had suggested that Hemdani was unhappy with life with Rangers and that his agent was set to jet into Glasgow for showdown talks with the club.
		Hemdani's persistent injury problems had also sparked speculation that the 27-year-old midfielder was unwilling, rather than unable, to play.
		Hemdani will not feature in Saturday's Scottish Premier League meeting with Kilmarnock and McLeish remains unsure when the French Algerian will be ready for first-team action.

	BBC SPORT \| Football \| My Club \| Rangers \| Hemdani: We can revive campaign
		The 27-year-old Hemdani was brought to Ibrox last summer on a free transfer from Marseille by manager Alex McLeish to bolster the midfield.
		Hemdani believes that the injury list has been a major factor in hampering the quest to retain the championship.
		The news that McLeish is stepping down as boss at the end of the season has, according to Hemdani, not unsettled the dressing room, as Rangers supporters face an anxious wait for a replacement.

		But where is Hemdani, after the Evil Empire went to all the trouble of bringing 007, James Bond, out of retirement to help coax the midfielder to the Death Star (or a ‘swoop sensation using David Murray's private jet' as the Daily Rotten prefers to spin it)?
		Well, according to the Cat In The Hat, Hemdani has suffered an unfortunate series of injuries which have prevented him thus far from being nominated in third place (behind Poorshow and Fergiehun) in the Scottish Sports Writers' Player Of The Year list.
		Hemdani will “be fit to play in 10 days or so,” according to the “senior club source”, who was stroking his chinchilla cat ‘Traynor' at the time of assuring his media minions.

		The man who captained Marseille to the 2004 UEFA Cup Final, Brahim Hemdani, finally agreed to put pen to paper on a four-year deal that will cost the club a total of £4million.
		And, with Leverkusen and Betis also in the running, Bain and chairman David Murray were left to sweat it out in sun-kissed Antibes as they awaited the answer of a player who had already made a secret trip to Glasgow to pass a medical.
		Hemdani was available on a free transfer after the expiry of his contract at Marseille.

		However, since Rangers' pre-season tour of Canada, Hemdani has been on the sick list with a string of medical complaints, and his injuries are said to have “dumbfounded Rangers medical staff”.
		However, we are told that Hemdani is adamant that he is unfit due to persistent groin and ankle problems.
		Indeed, we are told that Hemdani has informed the Ibrox management that he has made a terrible mistake and wants to LEAVE Rangers as soon as possible.

		Chris Burke, Sasa Papac and Brahim Hemdani are three names who could hit the Ibrox exit door before the transfer window closes tonight.
		Chris Burke may be heading to Plymouth for a loan deal while St Etienne are back in the hunt for Sasa Papac, who passed on a move to the French outfit in a £1m move back in June.
		Hemdani, the third highest paid player at the club, has again, reportedly, expressed his desire to the club’s hierarchy to move on before the transfer deadline.

		It’s not that he is reluctant to peer towards the beginning of a new era, it's just that Brahim Hemdani doesn't believe the old one has quite ended yet.
		Since then they have gone onto hammer Dunfermline and there has been no indication that they are prepared to relinquish their grip on the second place which would open the door to Champions League football for the first time in their history.
		It could be that the second spot in Europe's premier competition is not decided until the final day of the season when Rangers and Hearts meet at Ibrox but Hemdani knows Rangers, who have struggled to 1-0 wins in their last two games, cannot afford to let their concentration dip in these last five games.
