Rangers have confirmed the signing of Belgium Under-21 midfielder Nicolas Raskin from Standard Liege on a long-term contract.
The 21-year-old moves to Ibrox for a fee reported to be in the region of £1.7million, subject to a work permit being confirmed.
Raskin is Rangers' second signing of the January transfer window after Todd Cantwell joined from Norwich last week.
Raskin told his new club's website: "I feel very excited to be here and I also feel very proud to join a very big club.
"I'm looking forward to playing at Ibrox. It was very exciting when I was told of Rangers' interest because it's a big club."
"I'm looking forward to making my debut and I hope it can be as soon as possible."
Michael Beale said: "As a football club, Nicolas is a player that we have tracked for a long time and we are very pleased to welcome him and his family to Rangers.
"He is a young player that has already amassed good experience both in domestic and European competition. I am looking forward to working with him closely and integrating him into our team."
