Pedro Mendes has backed Rangers' decision to snub any offers for his services. "It is closed now," he said.

"Just to make it clear, as for my part and the club's part, there was a clear intention, both of us were thinking the same way.

"January is always a month of speculation with all the talk about possible transfers.

"The main thing now is that it's finished, it's closed, and we are looking forward to the rest of the season."
