The 22-year-old had impressed at Easter Road, and scored eight times against Rangers during his time in the Championship.

He told the club’s website: “Something I have always wanted to do since I can remember is to play in an Old Firm game and I can’t wait to be part of one.”

In a similar deal to the one which has brought Jamie Murphy to Ibrox from Brighton, Rangers will have the option to sign Cummings on a permanent basis in the summer.

Cummings joins Murphy and Sean Goss as January additions to Graeme Murty’s squad.

And there could still be more transfer movement.

A loan deal for Norwich’s Russell Martin is expected to be completed this week, and earlier today, Kilmarnock rejected a bid from the Glasgow club for winger Jordan Jones.

Greg Doherty of Hamilton has also been linked with a move to Ibrox.
