Rangers finally got their man on transfer deadline day as Kilmarnock and Scotland striker Steven Naismith penned a five-year contract at Ibrox.
The 20-year-old moves in a deal that could eventually be worth £2million to Killie, who had been keen to hold on to their star performer.
Naismith told the Scottish Sun: "I'm delighted I have this chance to sign and play for Rangers, better late than never.
"I'd seen the Champions League draw which was unbelievable and I was thinking about what could have been. Now I'm going to be part of it.
"I might not feature in Champions League games to begin with, but I'll be determined to take my chance if it comes.
"I think this gives all parties what they want. Killie get a reasonable fee which is great for the future of the club and Rangers get the player they wanted."
