Rangers have completed the signing of Max Aarons from Bournemouth on loan until the end of the season.

The full-back becomes Russell Martin’s first signing since taking charge of the Ibrox club.

Aarons, 25, won the English Championship with Norwich City on two occasions and helped the England U21’s win the European Championship in 2023 and will be looking to make an impact at the Light Blues.

Speaking to the official Rangers club website, the right-back said he can bring a ‘new energy’ to the team, he said:

“I am delighted to be here, as you can see it’s a huge club and you realise that when you walk through the doors, I can’t wait to get going.

“I’ve got a lot of experience now in different leagues and I have played a lot of games. I think I can bring that experience, I can bring a new energy, and I think Rangers fans can be excited – I am really looking forward to it.”

New boss Martin also told the official Rangers club website that he watched Aarons’ development whilst he was coming through the youth ranks at the Canaries and believes he will be a success at the Govan club:

“Max is a player who I have always kept a keen eye on since he was emerging through the youth ranks while I was coming to the end of my time at Norwich as a player. He is a wonderfully talented player who is hungry to develop, improve and help deliver success for his side.

“We are pleased to bring him on board for this season, and I believe he will be a fantastic addition to the squad.”
