Lithuania forward seals loan switch to Ashton Gate
Bristol City have signed Rangers striker Andrius Velicka on a season-long loan deal.
The 30-year-old Lithuania international moved to Rangers from Norwegian side Viking in 2008 having earlier impressed during a two-year loan spell at Hearts, but he struggled for first-team opportunities.
And, having now sealed a temporary switch to Ashton Gate, Velicka is hoping to help fire the Robins to promotion.
"Every player is disappointed or unhappy when they aren't playing games," he told the club's official website.
"Maybe here at Bristol City I will get the chance to play more games.
"I enjoyed my time in Scotland with Rangers and Hearts before that, but sometimes as a footballer you need to move on.
"Now I'm looking forward to playing for Bristol City, scoring goals and hopefully getting the club into the Premier League."
