Jack Butland can't wait to get the Rangers chapter of his career started as he sent a three word social media message.
Michael Beale moved to secure the services of the England international after Allan McGregor's exit from the Ibrox club while Jon McLaughlin is also heading towards the exit leaving just Robby McCrorie as the only first-team goalkeeper. Youngster Kieran Wright has been handed fresh terms and will train and compete alongside his goalkeeping colleagues.
Butland - who joined on a free following the expiry of his contract at Crystal Palace - had been on loan at Manchester United with reports at the time suggesting the Red Devils wanted to maintain his services beyond the summer. But after failing to make a single appearance he has opted for a move to Ibrox as he bids to get back to regular first-team action.

Ahead of his first pre-season in Glasgow, he has been working hard behind the scenes after a short summer break as he uploaded an image from the gym on the rowing machine with the caption: "Bring on Friday."
Rangers and Beale are out to dethrone Celtic and new boss Brendan Rodgers this coming campaign after they won a domestic Treble last term and have picked up five of the last six available trophies.
The Ibrox men also have early season Champions League qualifiers to negotiate if they are to return to Europe's top table.
It's set to be an important start to the campaign with Beale already making FOUR signings to date with more to follow. Abdallah Sima from Brighton on a season-long loan is close while he's also looking at Danilo from Feyenoord.
A number of fringe men will exit alongside those who left in the summer including Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent while more bodies are expected to also come in the way.
Butland will get down to the hard graft from Friday - the same day the SPFL release the Scottish Premiership fixtures - as he looks to quickly settle and create bonds, like his fellow arrivals, his his new Ibrox team-mates.
