Rangers have sealed a pre-contract move for Aberdeen rising star Scott Wright.
The 23-year-old will arrive at Ibrox in the summer on a Bosman as Steven Gerrard starts his preparations for next season with their commanding lead at the Premiership summit.
Wright has been on the club's radar for some time and Rangers sporting director Ross Wilson is delighted to have him on board.
He said: "We look forward to Scott joining Rangers and we are excited to see him continue to develop his talent working with Steven and all of our staff. Scott fits our football identity and our plan for the development of our squad.
"Adding Scott, as a young Scottish player, who will continue to enhance his talent here, is part of our plan. I’ve enjoyed all of our conversations and we can see that Scott is a very humble young man who is both determined and excited to be part of what we are building here at Rangers.
"We thank Aberdeen for their cooperation and professionalism during this period.”
And supporters have welcomed the new recruit with open arms following the announcement.

@Ryan17ward said: "Decent piece of business getting done nice and early again from the club! Big fan of these sort of deals."
@colinkeose tweeted: "Hope this is a good move and offers some rotation for Kent if it's needed. Great job RFC!."
@MidfieldJack added: "If he turns out to be half as good as the last man we took off them then we’re in for a treat, Welcome to Rangers!"
