It even makes sense, because you do pronounce the g in words like "finger", it just becomes silent at the end of the word.
In German "ng" is always without a distinct g-sound (like German "Finger", or its n and g like "Ungeheuer")

"This means that the words finger and singer do not rhyme in most modern varieties of English, although they did in Middle English."

Depends on the dialect. For example, older speakers of Swabian may totally say "Feng-ger" to "Finger", as opposed to the more "modern" Swabian variant of "Fenger".
