It’s a year to the day, since Glenn Middleton joined Rangers.
The 19-year-old spent the vast majority of his youth career at Norwich City.

However, after failing to break into the first team, he jumped at the opportunity to follow former Canaries coach, Graeme Murty, to Ibrox.
Steven Gerrard clearly liked what he saw from the off.
After spending the previous six months in the youth team, the new manager brought him into the senior setup almost straight away.

He made his first appearance against Shkupi in Europa League Qualifying, back in July and has been involved ever since.

When injury struck Liverpool loanee Ryan Kent, he was thrust into a starting berth.

The teenager reacted well, too.
Particular highlights came against in November, as he scored in consecutive games against Spartak Moscow and Motherwell.
On both occasions, he showed composure beyond his years.

Overall, he has registered an impressive 26 appearances this campaign, producing five goals.
The Rangers supporters have enjoyed watching him play and it seems he’s loved his time at Ibrox, so far.

When he tweeted this afternoon to mark a year since he signed on the dotted line, some Bears rallied around the winger, suggesting he has a big part to play in the coming years.
