Oscar Cortes: Rangers take Lens winger on second loan deal

“Sadly, the injury ended my season early, but I have been working hard and I am excited to help the team and play in front of the wonderful fans again soon.”

Cortes came through the youth ranks with Millonarios in his homeland before joining Lens in the French top flight for a reported fee of £3.7m last July.

He only played four times for his new club before heading to Ibrox on loan and had scored once for the Glasgow side before picking up his injury against Kilmarnock.

Clement had, however, seen enough to want the winger back at the club and added: “He was a big asset to the squad when he came to the club and he showed the qualities that attracted him to us.

“Oscar suffered a setback, but he has worked tirelessly during his recovery and I am sure all of the fans are looking forward to seeing him again next season.”

Rangers have already signed Jefte from Brazilian club Fluminese this summer, while fellow left-back Borna Barisic is exiting at the end of his contract along with midfielders John Lundstram and Ryan Jack, striker Kemar Roofe and goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin.
