Mohamed Diomande joins Arca Çorum FK from Rangers

Mohamed Diomande has completed a permanent move from Rangers to Turkish side Arca Çorum FK, according to an official statement from Rangers Football Club. The Ivorian midfielder has signed a long-term contract in Turkey, according to Ben Jacobs, marking a significant departure from Ibrox during the summer window.

The move brings an end to Diomande’s time in Glasgow as the club continues to reshape the first-team squad. Rangers confirmed his departure on Monday evening. Shortly after, details of his new agreement emerged. He has committed his future to Arca Çorum FK with a multi-year deal. This exit follows a period of speculation regarding the midfielder’s role under the current management.

The transfer comes as Rangers manager Derek McInnes looks to balance his options. McInnes recently admitted the club is chasing a new left-back and a striker, according to Sky Sports. Diomande’s departure may provide the necessary room in the squad to facilitate these incoming deals. The club is currently preparing for European tests and domestic fixtures.

The squad is also looking to replace Chermiti in the forward line. Pundit Kris Boyd has highlighted two key areas for strengthening this month, according to The Rangers Review.
