Rangers are in advanced talks to sign Couhaib Driouech.

The club want to sign the PSV Eindhoven winger, 24, for a deal worth more than £7million.

The Rangers Review reports that Driouech is close to agreeing a four-year contract, despite interest from Celta Vigo and Burnley. If a deal is agreed, Driouech will become Derek McInnes' 10th signing of the summer.

Rangers recently strengthened their attack with the £2.75million signing of Japanese forward Daisuke Yokota from Hannover 96. However, McInnes is keen to add more quality to the team and wants to bring in a centre-back and left-back before the transfer window closes.

He also wants to offload unwanted squad members, with Mohamed Diomande close to moving to Turkish Super Lig side FK Corum. After Rangers' recent defeat to Hibernian, McInnes said: "Clearly, we could do it with certain players in certain areas, helping us out.

"Obviously, we're still trying to bring in another wide-right player as well, if we can, to share that burden with him. But having a natural player on that side and somebody who wants to play there, I think, will be key for us.

"So, it is important that we try and make signings, but the club has worked hard on that. I think it's important that we come out of the window as strong as we possibly can."
