Rangers have reached an agreement with AEK Athens to loan James Penrice, who is set to arrive in Glasgow for a medical. The 27-year-old defender is expected to provide much-needed depth at left-back, especially following an injury to Tuur Rommens.

The move comes after Rangers' recent 1-1 draw against Jagiellonia Bialystok, which eliminated them from Europa League qualification. Penrice's performance in Greece included 20 league appearances and significant defensive contributions, helping his team maintain six clean sheets.
