Rangers midfielder Alejandro Bedoya has joined Swedish side Helsingborgs IF.

The 25-year-old completed the move on Friday, as it was confirmed that the Allsvenskan side will face Celtic in a Champions League qualifier later this month.

Bedoya stated on his Twitter account that the move from Govan was a "hard decision" and stated he was "extremely grateful" of having played for Rangers.

The American internationalist scored once in 13 games for the Glasgow side during the year he played for them.

He becomes the latest Rangers player to leave Ibrox after the newco club was denied entry into the Scottish Premier League and was forced to start life in the Third Division.

During a media conference on Friday, Rangers manager Ally McCoist stated that he “may yet lose more players so we will need to bring more in.”
