Rangers complete £5m deal for Besiktas' Yilmaz

Ridvan Yilmaz has signed for Rangers on a five-year deal from Besiktas.

Rangers had been in talks over a deal with the Turkey international joining for a fee of £3.4m, rising to £5m with add-ons.

Several clubs from across Europe were interested in the 21-year-old but the player made it clear he wanted to move to join Giovanni van Bronckhorst's team.

Yilmaz told the club's official website: "I am delighted to be joining a club the size of Rangers and am really looking forward to meeting my new team-mates.

"This is a club who have shown they can compete against some of the best teams in Europe, and I am really excited by the challenges we have ahead of us
