Bournemouth striker Defoe agrees to join Rangers

Bournemouth striker Jermain Defoe has agreed to join Rangers.

The Mirror says Rangers have agreed a deal to sign Defoe on an 18-month loan deal.

The Bournemouth striker will hook up with the Scottish Premiership side at their winter training camp in Tenerife.

Defoe has been given the green light to leave the Cherries for the remainder of his three-year contract after failing to nail down a spot in Eddie Howe's starting XI this term.

The 36-year-old will be among the travelling party when the squad fly out to the Canary Islands for the warm-weather camp on Sunday.
