Rangers have officially announced the signing of Andreas Skov Olsen on a six month loan deal from VfL Wolfsburg. They also have an option to buy the player for a reported amount of almost £9m.

Rangers were first linked to the Danish international back in the summer of 2020, before their unbeaten league season, with manager Steven Gerrard being a keen admirer of the Dane.

The club once again expressed interest in Skov Olsen two years later under Giovanni Van Bronckhorst, but the winger instead opted for a move elsewhere as he joined Club Brugge.

Following a successful three years in Belgium, in which he scored almost 50 goals, Olsen signed for Wolfsburg last January, however injuries prevented the 26-year-old from making his mark in the Bundesliga.

With the player showing a keen interest in making the switch to Glasgow, the arrival of Skov Olsen is seen as a statement signing for the Ibrox club, as Danny Röhl looks to add reinforcements to his squad following the acquisitions of midfielder Tochi Chukwuani from Sturm Graz for £4million and left back Tuur Rommens in a £3million deal from Westerlo.

Röhl said regarding the signing: “We are really excited to bring Andreas to the club.

He is a player who has proven himself at the top level and brings experience of performing under pressure both domestically and on the European stage.

He will provide real quality in the final third of the pitch and arrives hungry for this challenge and excited by the opportunity ahead of him.”

Rangers will be hoping to build momentum in 2026 as they focus their efforts on chasing down the league title in what is expected to be a tense battle with rivals Celtic and league leaders Hearts.
