Rangers have recruited forwards Cyriel Dessers, Sam Lammers and Abdallah Sima in recent
weeks.

"[Colak] departs Ibrox with the thanks of everyone at the club for his contribution, and also
best wishes for the future," Rangers tweeted.

As well as his homeland, Colak has played in Germany, Poland and Sweden and joins a Parma
side starting in Italy's Serie B in the coming season.

Nigeria international Dessers and Dutch forward Lammers have moved to Ibrox from Italian
sides Cremonese and Atalanta respectively, while Senegal international Sima arrives from
Brighton.

And manager Michael Beale told Rangers' website: "Antonio can be really proud of his
time here at Rangers. He scored goals and made a good contribution on the pitch but also as
a man and professional, he was someone that I enjoyed working with and who built strong
relationships with his team mates and staff off the pitch.

"We initially had a conversation at the end of last season, where we discussed football, his
family and also what the future would look like in terms of the team. Antonio was very
honest on his side and we have been working with him and his agent in the following weeks
to find a solution that suits all parties. I am pleased for him to have this excellent
opportunity in Italy."
