Kosta Nedeljkovic: Rangers sign Aston Villa right-back on loan with £4m obligation to buy Serbia international

Rangers have signed right-back Kosta Nedeljkovic from Aston Villa.

The 20-year-old has moved to Ibrox on a season-long loan, with a £4m obligation to buy included in the deal, which will be triggered based on the number of games he plays.

Your Site News understands Rangers saw off competition from other clubs to sign Nedeljkovic after he held talks with manager Derek McInnes and his Serbia team-mate Vanja Dragojevic, who moved to the club earlier this summer.

Nedeljkovic arrived at Villa Park in January 2024 from Red Star Belgrade but made 10 appearances in that time, having also spent a season and a half on loan at RB Leipzig.

Rangers have now made 11 summer signings, with more expected over the coming weeks of the transfer window.

It is understood Ibrox chiefs are searching for a new striker and winger before the September 3 deadline in Scotland, with Portland Timbers' Kevin Kelsy and Brighton's Amario Cozier-Duberry among those of interest to Rangers.

Speaking after joining Rangers, Nedeljković said: "I am very excited, Rangers is such a big club, a big family and I am excited to join and help the team have success together.

"For me, it was an easy decision after meeting with the coach, I only wanted Rangers. It is a big opportunity and a big responsibility. I always try to be positive and work hard so I am ready to help the team."

Manager McInnes added: "Kosta is a talented young player who we are really pleased to bring to the club.

"He has already gained some valuable experience at a high level in England and Germany, as well as representing Serbia internationally. Kosta is an athletic and energetic full-back who is keen to get forward, but he also has a real desire to defend and compete and he will further strengthen a key area for us.

"I look forward to welcoming Kosta to Rangers, and working with him moving forward."
