Motherwell youngster David Turnbull is a name some Scottish football fans are only starting to get familiar with.
But there’s no doubt that this young talent has the potential to be a household name in the coming years. Still only 19, the creative midfield talent plays like someone several years his senior.
Comfortable on the ball, a leader on the park and with the ability to chip in with goals, he is someone Rangers must be seriously considering investing in.

And the club must do it soon, before anyone else does. After all, the form of David Turnbull is bound to be turning heads down south.
Turnbull, who earned comparisons to Germany legend Michael Ballack at the weekend, has been electric this season.
His 12 goals in 27 games from midfield have everyone paying attention. Turnbull has also scored all manner of goals – inside the box, outside the box, free kicks, penalties.
His form has been that good he was the toast of Motherwell’s POTY Awards. He won five of them. Turnbull is also odds on to pick up the Young Player of the Year award for the SPFL.
Only last month, rumours were swirling about Rangers interest in the player [originally Four Lads Had a Dream]. Let’s hope they’re made concrete.

But if Rangers can also secure the future of David Turnbull, it’d be a major coup. The boy looks the real deal and could be an exciting fixture in the Rangers midfield for years to come.
