Rangers secured Kevin Kelsey from Portland Timbers for a £9.5m fee on a four-year contract, a move that addresses their striker shortage after Youssef Chermiti's ACL injury in August. The transfer deadline day saw the club also bring in Badredine Bouanani on a season-long loan from Stuttgart, with an option to buy for £15.5m, a figure reported as around €18m. Ryan Jack, a former Rangers midfielder now a free agent, said: "I’m really happy to be here. See you Saturday at Ibrox!" The club confirmed the signings via their official statement: "I am very happy to be here and excited to start." These additions come as Rangers sit sixth in the Premiership with 7 points from 4 games, a recent form of WWLD and a goal difference of +1. insidefutbol.com first reported the story.
