Peter Lovenkrands caught the attention of Europe's top clubs with a brilliant 2001/02 season for Rangers. Real Madrid, Barcelona and Inter Milan were all interested in the pacy player after his two-goal display in the 2002 Scottish Cup victory over Celtic.
Although his form has not reached those heights since, he remains one of Denmark's main dangermen.
Lovenkrands could be employed on the opposite wing to Dennis Rommendahl or upfront if coach Morten Olsen opts for all-out attack.
He has been a regular goalscorer for Rangers since signing for them from AB Copenhagen in 2000.
He decided to move to the Glasgow giants on the advice of former Denmark and Rangers legend Brian Laudrup.
Did you know? Peter's elder brother Tommy also played in Scotland for St Johnstone.
