I'm sure you're right  that he was  exchanged for  Dave Wilson  and Wilson Woods despite Persson  maintaining that he was a free agent,     

Persson would make his unofficial debut, in a glamorous pre- season friendly v Eintracht Frankfurt at Ibrox before a crowd of 60,000. Persson came on as a substitute (replacing Willie Johnston) and scored Rangers fifth goal in an impressive 5-3 victory.

Three days later on Aug 12th, Persson made his official debut in a League Cup tie at Pittodrie, scoring Rangers goal in a 1-1 draw

He made his official home debut the following Wednesday night in a rousing 1-1 draw v celtic, in the League Cup at Ibrox in front of a staggering 94,168 paying fans.

Just over a month later, in the first Old Firm League game of the season, Persson became an overnight hero, when after a three game absence, he was reinstated and repaid his selection gloriously, scoring a wonder goal against the European Champions, in a 1-0 win for Rangers in front of 90,000 fans at Ibrox. 'Latching onto a clever lob from McKinnon, Persson went on a devastating 30 yard run (right to left) beating four celtic defenders, (Gemmell being two of them), before crashing in an unstoppable shot from what seemed like an impossible angle.' Oh how we loved him.

         

                                                                                                 

Aye, and that Mhank Auld broke Davie Provan's leg in the game
