Rangers confirm deal for Niko Kranjcar

Midfielder Niko Kranjcar has completed his transfer to Rangers on a two-year contract.

It had been reported earlier this week that the former Tottenham Hotspur and Queens Park Rangers player was due in Glasgow to undergo a medical, and the Scottish Premiership side have confirmed that the Croatian has penned a deal until 2018.

Head coach Mark Warburton told the club's official website: "We are delighted to secure a player of Niko's undoubted qualities and very much look forward to welcoming him to the club.

"Such a signing shows our desire to achieve a positive balance between young, hungry players and the undoubted necessity of experience and maturity."

Kranjcar had been playing for New York Cosmos but he is known to British supporters for making 153 appearances in the Premier League for Spurs, QPR and Portsmouth.
