CARLOS Pena has left Rangers after just six months for a reunion with former Ibrox manager Pedro Caixinha at Mexican side Cruz Azul.
The midfielder was one of several players to be signed by the Portuguese boss last summer, but has struggled to make an impact in Scotland since his arrival from Guadalajara.
Pena has signed a one-year loan deal with the option to buy at the Liga MX outfit.

The 27-year-old departs Ibrox having scored five goals in 14 appearances for the Light Blues, including a double against St Johnstone in October.
However, the Mexico internationalist only started eight matches and struggled for fitness during his spell in Glasgow.
Caixinha was sacked after seven months in charge of Rangers in October but returned to Mexican football in December after a previous spell at Santos Laguna.
