Derek McInnes has explained why Rangers signed Kim Min-su after his arrival was announced today.

Speaking ahead of facing Jablonec in the Conference League play-off second leg, which the winger is not available for, McInnes described the 20-year-old as a winger with lots of potential.

He explained Min-su will bring the "speed and invention" he has been looking to add to his team after a slow start to the season.

McInnes said: "Yeah, it's been well-documented for a while now. He's a young player who has a lot of real potential.

"We quite like the way that he plays the game and he's got that speed and invention to his play, which I think we need.

"So, I'm delighted to get that one over the line and hopefully soon he'll be important for the football club. Hopefully we can see him at Aberdeen on Sunday."

The Rangers manager has named an unchanged XI for tonight's game, sticking with the side that started for the 1-0 win in the home leg.

Explaining the thinking behind that, he added: "Well, we've had a bit more time to get more sets of legs on the pitch. I think that we've had some good performances from the players and they'll do well.

"I feel that with the additions we've brought in, it'll help us but I do feel that we're working from our best starting eleven at the moment to win games of football. We've got good options from the bench and another game on Sunday, so I've got to make sure I utilise the squad. But I felt there were some aspects of the game last week we did well and we've spoken about what we need to do more.

"I feel as though the performances were decent, so we've got to try and do it again, win the game and hopefully make it three wins in a row before we head back to Aberdeen on Sunday."
