  /  autty

Rangers have signed winger Djeidi Gassama from Sheffield Wednesday in a deal worth around £2.2m.

The 21-year-old has signed a four-year deal at Ibrox, with a club-held option to extend that by a further 12 months.

He is Rangers' seventh summer signing as head coach Russell Martin looks to strengthen his attacking options ahead of their Champions League qualifier against Panathinaikos.

Gassama - a French U20 international - scored eight goals in 47 appearances last season as the Owls finished 12th in the EFL Championship.

Nasser Djiga and Max Aarons have joined the club on loan from Wolves and Bournemouth, respectively, with Emmanuel Fernandes, Joe Rothwell, Thelo Aasgaard and Lyall Cameron agreeing permanent deals.

Rangers take on Panathinaikos on July 22 and 30 as they bid to progress to the Champions League third qualifying round.
