Borna Barisic looks completely transformed as he prepares to finally escape Ibrox by joining Trabzonspor.

Since 2 February 2022 the Croatian has worn a haunted look with memories of Liel Abada and Callum McGregor dogging his every move.

The signing of Ridvan Yilmaz offered hope that things might get better but the young Turk has come up short forcing Barisic back into action under Micky Beale and Phil Clement.

Rumoured interest from Juventus failed to materialise with the Croatian starting 18 SPFL matches in the season just ended plus nine European matches.

It seems that Barisic has made the most of his move with new hair, teeth and even a smile to celebrate his Ibrox escape!

After refusing to sign a contract extension it was confirmed earlier this month that Barisic was leaving, at the same time Brazilian starlet Jefte was snapped up amid rumours of interest coming in from Real Madrid.

On Monday it looks like Barisic will be able to sign for Trabzonspor, moving his career on after a miserable six years listening to the Union Bears and the other trimmings at Ibrox.
