The Switzerland international netted nine goals during his time in Scotland but now returns to his homeland.

A club statement read: "Rangers can today confirm striker Cedric Itten has joined BSC Young Boys for an undisclosed fee.

"Striker Itten initially joined Rangers in the summer of 2020, and he went on to make 49 appearances for the club.

"He also scored nine goals, with a number of those being crucial in the delivery of title number 55 to Ibrox in 2020/21, not least a late strike against Motherwell in the December of that season that turned a tight match in the Light Blues’ favour.

"To date, he has been capped seven times by the Swiss national team, has scored four goals and will be aiming to join their World Cup-bound squad in November.

"Everyone at Ibrox wishes Cedric well for this next move in his career."

Rangers are continuing to press forward with plans for the new season with Giovanni van Bronckhorst handing Steven Davis a new one-year deal.

John Souttar will also hook up with his new team-mates when pre-season begins after putting pen to paper on a pre-contract earlier this year from Hearts.
