RIDVAN YILMAZ has been spending some time with a former Rangers hero ahead of his move to Ibrox.

The left-back has signed a five-year deal at Ibrox.

The 21-year-old joined Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side for an undisclosed fee from Turkish giants Besiktas earlier this week.

The talented international is awaiting a work permit before travelling to Glasgow to meet up with his new teammates.

But in the mean time, he's been training in Turkey and has been given a lesson in all things Rangers by Tugay, who played for the Ibrox club between 2000 to 2001.

The pair have been pictured together in their native homeland, with Rangers sharing it on social media.

The club tweeted: "Yılmaz & Tugay. Currently training in Turkey and learning more about Rangers from his fellow countryman before his work permit confirmation later this week."
