Former Rangers keeper Jon McLaughlin finds new club on transfer deadline day

Former Rangers goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin has joined Middlesbrough. 

The stopper, who made 46 appearances during a four-year stint at Ibrox, signs for the English Championship side on a free transfer. 

McLaughin left Rangers for Swansea City last summer, but he played just once for the club from South Wales. 

The 37-year-old had been training with Boro for six weeks before officially putting pen to paper yesterday.

He will serve as backup to first-team goalkeepers Sol Brynn and Seny Dieng.

In terms of Rangers, it was a busy transfer deadline day.  

Oscar Cortes departed on loan for Sporting Gijon in Spain's second tier, whilst, as first revealed by The Rangers Review, Nicolas Raskin stayed put despite interest from FC Copenhagen. 

Regarding incomings, the club secured the services of Youssef Chermiti and Derek Cornelius. 

The latter joins on a season-long loan deal from Marseille, with Rangers shelling out a fee of £8million, which could rise to £10m with add-ons, on Chermiti. 

The striker put pen to paper on a four-year deal in Glasgow.

The pair could be included in Rangers' squad for the league phase of the Europa League. The submission deadline is 11pm tonight.
