21 July 2011 18:30

Rangers have signed United States international Alejandro Bedoya on a pre-contract agreement subject to a work permit.

The midfielder will arrive in Glasgow in January when his contract with Swedish club Orebro expires.

The Scottish champions failed with a bid to sign the player on a more immediate basis earlier this week.

A statement on the club's official website confirmed: "Rangers Football Club has today reached agreement with American international Alejandro Bedoya, subject to a work permit.

"The midfielder will arrive in Glasgow in January 2012."

Bedoya had also indicated on his Twitter account that an agreement had been reached with the Ibrox club.

He wrote: "In Glasgow n just agreed to terms w/ Rangers! Crossing fingers Work Permit goes through! Thanks for the support!"
