Turkish side Bursaspor, who played Rangers in the Champions League, are reported to have agreed a deal to sign Kenny Miller in the summer.

Reports in the Turkish press say Kenny Miller has already agreed a move to join Bursaspor at the end of the season. The Rangers striker, who scored against the Turkish champions in the Champions League, is claimed to have agreed a deal worth £30,000 a week.

Attempts by Rangers officials to tie down the Scotland international, who took his tally for the season to 22 in his team's 4-1 win over Motherwell on Sunday, have so far proved unsuccessful, leaving the player free to quit Ibrox at the end of the campaign.

Now Bursaspor, who finished bottom of their Champions League group with the SPL champions, are said to have agreed “in principle” a move for Miller and Sparta Prague's Ivory Coast international striker Wilfried Bony.

It is claimed the Turkish club will be able to formally announce the capture of Miller on a free transfer on January 5, having failed to convince Rangers to sell their top goalscorer in the January transfer window.
