Rangers have made their 12th signing of the summer window after completing a move for Girona winger Kim Min-su.
The South Korean attacker, 20, joins after the club met his £8.5million release clause.
Min-su underwent his medical on Tuesday and Wednesday, flying into the UK late on Tuesday. Predominantly a left-winger, he amassed 10 goal contributions for FC Andorra playing in the Spanish second tier last season.
He has signed a four-year deal at Ibrox with Rangers holding the option to extend that by an additional 12 months.
Min-su becomes the third attacking addition to Derek McInnes' squad this summer, following Lawrence Shankland and Daisuke Yokota. Rangers have also agreed a fee with Portland Timbers for striker Kevin Kelsy in the region of £9million. The Venezuelan forward, 22, is set to follow Min-su to Ibrox as the final week of the window approaches.
McInnes has repeatedly spoken of the need to add further quality in the wide areas since his appointment as Danny Rohl's successor this summer. Daisuke Yokota arrived in a £2.75million move from Hannover 96 and Min-su will join Djiedi Gassama and Findlay Curtis as options on the left flank. Rangers could look to add another wide player after previously seeing a £7million switch for PSV Eindhoven's Couhaib Driouech collapse at the last minute.
Rangers are still expected to be active in the final week of the window as they seek to make additions in attacking areas. A striker remains on the agenda following Youssef Chermiti's ACL injury and there is the intention to add another natural option from the right.
Meanwhile, Connor Barron is expected to depart before the deadline, with interest also building in Nico Raskin, who hasn't travelled to the Czech Republic due to a developing transfer.

Speaking about the transfer, McInnes said: “We are delighted to welcome Min-su to Rangers. Strengthening our options in the forward areas has been a real target and focus for us throughout this window, and we believe he will add another exciting dimension to the squad.
“Min-su is a talented young player with excellent technical ability, energy and a real desire to develop, and we are looking forward to working with him.”
