Fashion Sakala has bid an emotional farewell to Rangers.
The Zambian has penned a heartfelt goodbye letter to the club's fans following his departure.
Michael Beale revealed last Friday that the attacker has jetted out for talks with a club in Saudi Arabia.
The frontman was left out of the Light Blues' opening day defeat at Kilmarnock.
He joined in the summer of 2021 under Steven Gerrard and has split opinions during his time in Glasgow.
But Sakala has now waved goodbye to Rangers, admitting it was a "privilege" to play for the Scottish giants.
Posting on social media, he wrote: "To my beloved Rangers Football Club, teammates, management, and cherished Rangers fans. Today marks the end of an unforgettable chapter in my life.
"It is with a heavy heart, yet a spirit of gratitude, that I bid farewell to this esteemed club, the supportive management, and my fellow teammates, but most importantly, to the passionate and loyal Rangers fans.
"When I first joined Rangers, I could have never imagined the profound impact this club and its community would have on my life.
"From the very first day, you embraced me as one of your own, making me feel like I belonged here, and that sense of belonging has been the driving force behind my performances on the pitch.

"Last but not least, I extend my heartfelt appreciation to the Rangers fans. Your passion and unwavering loyalty are the heartbeat of this club. I am truly humbled by the affection you have shown me during my time here.
"Rangers fans are simply the best, and I will carry these memories of our time together, and the special song you created and sang for me, in my heart forever.
"As my journey with Rangers is coming to an end, I want to wish Rangers Football Club all the success and glory it deserves. I will always be a Ranger at heart, and I look forward to seeing the club conquer new heights in the future.
"It has been an honour and a privilege to wear the famous blue jersey and represent this iconic club. Yours faithfully, Fashion Sakala Junior."
