>Rangers have signed midfielder Vanja Dragojevic on an initial four-year deal.

>The 20-year-old becomes the Ibrox club's seventh summer signing as new manager Derek McInnes rebuilds his squad ahead of the new season.

>There is a 12-month option to extend the player's deal, as Dragojevic arrives from Partizan Belgrade for a fee in excess of £4m.

>He was club captain at the Serbian side and was rated as one of the best defensive midfielders in the league, plus has two caps for his national team.

>Alongside Cammy Devlin and Dan Neil, he is the third midfielder to join the club, in addition to other summer signings Lawrence Shankland, Ross McCrorie, Ben Godfrey and Ivor Pandur.

>Rangers had been in talks over a move for Tromso's Jens Hjertø-Dahl too, but have prioritised the move for Dragojevic.

>He said: "It feels amazing, and I'm really happy and proud to be part of such a big club like Rangers.

>"It's a big opportunity and I can't wait to get started.

>"I first heard [the interest] three months ago, and when I heard it I already knew it was very interesting to me because I think the winning mentality that Rangers have is compatible with my mentality."

>McInnes added: "We are really excited to bring Vanja on board.

>"He's got huge potential, really exciting attributes, and boasts the character to play in this environment. To captain a club the size of FK Partizan at such a young age tells you everything you need to know about the respect he commands and the leadership qualities he already possesses.

>"I believe he will add a lot to our group, and I look forward to working with him in the years ahead."
