He is in Turkey and could be set to make his debut
Jack, 32, was linked with several clubs throughout the summer and there was serious talk over a potential move to another Scottish side.
SunSport told you how Dundee were keen to sign him and Jack himself later revealed he had interest from Scotland as well as down south.
But last week, it was suggested Jack would be the latest Rangers player to head to Turkey, following John Lundstram and Borna Barisic’s double switch to Trabzonspor.
James Tavernier was also heavily linked with a late move to Besiktas to link up with Giovanni van Bronckhorst but the Istanbul side couldn’t get a deal over the line before their transfer window closed.

"There has been a few things out there, a few things that have had me excited but we'll see where that goes.
"I've spoken to a few managers in Scotland. Ones that obviously know me, it wasn't really too much on discussions on actually signing for the club, more to see how I am.
"It's the first time I'm out of contract. Just touching base. There's been a few discussions in Scotland but it's more with managers that know me and who I've worked with before, touching base to see how I am."
