Rangers have completed the signing of Japanese winger Daisuke Yokota.
The Ibrox side have landed the Hannover 96 ace on a three-year deal, with the option of an additional year, for a fee in the region of £2.75m.
Yokota, 26, provides Derek McInnes with a natural right winger, something the Rangers boss was desperate to add to his squad.
Oliver Antman and Nedim Bajrami left the Ibrox club in recent days with McInnes keen to bring in two wide options during the transfer window.
It is not yet clear whether Yokota could even make his debut for Rangers against Jagiellonia Bialystok in the Europa League qualifier first leg on Thursday.
Rangers have until 24 hours before kick-off to submit their squad list for the tie.

Yokota commented: “I'm really excited to be joining Rangers. This is a massive club with a fantastic history, passionate supporters and high ambitions so it's a proud moment for me.
"My aim is to help the team achieve success this season, and I hope we can create some special memories together. I'm looking forward to meeting my teammates, the staff and getting started."
McInnes said: “We are really pleased to bring Daisuke to the club. He is a player we have been aware of for some time, and he brings qualities that we believe will really strengthen our attacking options.
“At 26, he has gained valuable experience across a number of different leagues in Europe. He is quick, direct and has the ability to make things happen in the final third.
“We are continuing to strengthen the squad in key areas, and I am looking forward to welcoming Daisuke to Rangers and working with him.”
