Bajrami moved from Empoli in 2023 but Sassuolo were relegated to Serie B at the end of last season, opening the possibility of a deal. It is understood that he will sign a four-year contract.

The midfielder scored the fastest goal in European Championship history this summer when he gave his country the lead after 23 seconds in a 2-1 defeat against Italy. 

Boss Clement has been on the lookout for additions in the No.10 spot all summer with Todd Cantwell exiting the club for Blackburn Rovers and Ianis Hagi consigned to B Team football after being informed that he was not part of the plans for this term.

Rangers initially explored the option of signing Bajrami on loan but the forward forced the move and insisted he wished to agree a permanent switch to Ibrox. Discussions continued on Friday before a resolution was reached. Bajrami is now expected to travel to Glasgow in the coming days to begin his career with Rangers.

Earlier, Rangers completed the signing of defender Neraysho Kasanwirjo from Feyenoord. The 22-year-old versatile right-back, who spent last season on loan at Rapid Wien in Austria, has also featured at centre-back in his career. 

“We are thrilled to welcome Neraysho to the football club and we believe he will be a big asset to the team," Clement said. 

“He can play in a number of defensive positions and will be a good option for the squad with the domestic and European commitments we have this campaign.

“He is looking forward to starting the next chapter in his career and we are pleased Neraysho has decided to join Rangers.”

Rangers have also brought Mohamed Diomande (loan made permanent), Oscar Cortes, Hamza Igamane, Clinton Nsiala, Liam Kelly, Jefte, Robin Propper and Vaclav Cerny in the door this summer.
