Due to numerous injuries in the rangers defence towards the likes of Leon Balogun, John Souttar and Dujon Sterling, Philippe Clement had given Nsiala the green light to make his full team debut for Rangers on 9 January 2025 away against Dundee.
He scored his first goal for Rangers on 19 January 2025 against Fraserburgh in the Scottish Cup at Ibrox.[13]
Alongside Robin Pröpper, Nsiala had been impressing fans with his performances winning man of the match awards 3 times in his first 6 games. This form seen him be included in the 23 man European squad which he was initially left out on at the start of the season.
Nsiala is a left-footed centre back, who has been mainly praised for his physicality, his anticipation skills, his jumping reach in aerial duels and his technique.[2][5]
