Last updated 28th Dec 2023
Rangers have completed the signing of Wolves striker Fabio Silva.
The 21-year old will join officially on January 1 in a loan deal until the end of the season.
Silva joined the English Premier League side for a fee of £35million in 2020 but has struggled to hold down a first team place.
He spent time on loan at both Anderlecht and PSV Eindhoven last campaign - scoring 16 goals in total.
The forward has also been prolific at youth level for Portugal - netting ten goals for their under-21 side.
He told the club's official website: “I am very happy, when I spoke to people about Glasgow and about Rangers, everyone told me good things about the club and the history.
"I played here once with Porto in the Europa League, so I already know the warm club, the environment and the stadium, so everything is perfect.
"I am very happy to be here, and I can't wait to start training with the team.”
Manager Philippe Clement added: “I am delighted we have been able to secure the signing of Fabio, he is a highly-rated striker and it is fantastic to have him joining our squad for the remainder of the season.
"He is a young player who already has some great experience in his career in both England and in Europe, and I am looking forward to working with him moving forward.”
