Rangers have officially completed the signing of goalkeeper Jack Butland from Crystal Palace, securing his services for the next four years pending international clearance.
During the 2022-23 season, the 30-year-old goalkeeper had a loan spell at Manchester United, where he served as a backup to the team's primary goalkeeper, David de Gea.
Despite his time at Old Trafford, Butland did not have the opportunity to make a single appearance in a competitive match.
The England international also faced challenges in getting consistent playing time at Crystal Palace, as he made only 17 appearances across all competitions during his two-and-a-half-year tenure at Selhurst Park.
Speaking after signing for Rangers, Butland said: “I’m over the moon. The club speaks for itself. No matter where you are in football, you know about Rangers Football Club. This is a huge opportunity for me, and I’m delighted to be here.
“I feel great and motivated at the age that I am, and I feel excited at what the future holds. Doing that at a club that is equally as passionate about winning and being at the top was huge for me.
“It’s an important summer for the club and we need to get off to a good start. Getting the work done early is hugely important, so that we’re settled and raring to go when we come back in.”
