PSV Eindhoven have addressed the collapse of Couhaib Driouech's transfer to Rangers.
The Moroccan winger's move was cancelled after a minor injury was detected during his medical.
The Rangers Review reported that Rangers sought to renegotiate the deal due to the injury but could not reach an agreement with PSV.
The injury, which would have kept Driouech out for several weeks, deterred Rangers from the initial agreement, despite having already settled personal terms.
PSV, however, expressed surprise at Rangers' decision, describing the injury as minor.
PSV director of football, Earnest Stewart, said: "In short, we believed that Couhaib would be fit again very soon.
"He had suffered a minor injury and, in our opinion, would be able to play matches again within a week, or at least very soon.
"They estimate the period he will be unable to play to be much longer than we do.
"From what I understood, six weeks.
"So we think it is considerably shorter."

Stewart also revealed that Driouech was left "deeply disappointed" after spending three days in Scotland, anticipating the transfer.
He said: "Couhaib is really upset about it.
"Very unfortunate.
"He was left in uncertainty for 48 hours.
"Everything was also postponed by a day, and he has barely been able to do anything.
"We are now getting a disillusioned player back.
"That is not nice."
Stewart criticised Rangers' decision to withdraw from the deal, considering the player's four-year contract.
He said: "During the four to six weeks in which they believe he is unavailable, the whole deal suddenly falls apart.
"This concerns a period of more than 200 weeks during which he would be under contract."
Rangers and PSV briefly explored the possibility of a season-long loan arrangement to salvage the transfer, but this was quickly rejected.
Stewart said: "This was going to be a permanent transfer, and that was not on the table."
