Kamara’s standout displays caught the eye of a host of English and European clubs, linking him with a move away from Ibrox over the summer.
However, the 25-year-old has ended any speculation surrounding his future, by inking fresh terms and has set his sights on lifting more silverware with the Gers.
“I am delighted to have committed my long-term future to Rangers,” he told the club’s website.
“I have absolutely loved my time here and being a part of the title-winning team last season has given me the hunger to try to win even more in the seasons ahead.
