Rangers have completed the signing of Oscar Cortes.
The winger, 20, has joined on loan from Lens until the end of the season.
The deal for the Colombian attacker includes an option to buy in the summer.
He joins Wolves striker Fabio Silva and Mohamed Diomande, the FC Nordsjælland midfielder, in hooking up with Philippe Clement at Ibrox this window.
Upon completing his move, Cortes said: “I am very honoured and privileged to be signing for Rangers.
“I have heard a lot about the history and tradition of Rangers, and I have had positive conversations with the manager who said I can help the team reach their goals this season.
“I am really excited to join up with my teammates and hopefully exciting the fans with my style of play.”
Clement commented: “I am really delighted to add Oscar to our squad.

“Our discussions have been really positive, and I believe he will be a big asset to the squad as we fight across three fronts for the remainder of this season.
“Oscar is really enthusiastic about our aims and ambitions as a team, and his skillset will provide welcome competition to our forward line.”
And Rangers director of recruitment added: “Oscar had been on our radar for a long time and was one of the best performers at the South American under-20 Championship. He quickly became an important player for Millonarios in the Copa Libertadores and made the move to Europe.
“Through good contacts, further analysis and our belief in his talent, we are pleased to seize this moment to sign him.
“With his pace, goal threat and technical level he will give us more options on the wing and working with our manager we believe we can take his development to the next level.”
