USA skipper Bocanegra obtains visa and joins up with Scottish giants Rangers

Rangers signing Carlos Bocanegra has obtained a visa and can now join up with his new Glasgow team-mates. The United States captain secured the necessary paperwork in Paris on Monday and is set to arrive at Murray Park on Tuesday.

The 32-year-old defender made his debut in last week's Europa League play-off against Maribor in Slovenia, but was unable to feature in Sunday's Clydesdale Bank Premier League win at Motherwell because he did not have a visa.

Fellow American Alejandro Bedoya was in a similar situation and he hopes to obtain his own visa in Stockholm in the next 24 hours.
