A report in the Daily Record, claims that Robby McCrorie is set to leave Rangers on loan this month.
The 20-year-old and twin brother of Gers midfielder, Ross, is currently third choice goalkeeper at Ibrox.

Wes Foderingham, the previous first choice, is currently McGregor’s deputy. Therefore, McCrorie hasn’t had much of a look in.
Though he has appeared on the bench this season, he is yet to make a senior appearance.
As an U21 international, it’s crucial that he isn’t just restricted to a Reserve team fixture every other week.

A stint elsewhere may be beneficial for his development.
Last season, he got some senior experience under his belt, at Berwick Rangers.
Yet, this time around, both he and Rangers will surely be aiming to secure the keeper a move to a more prominent club.
The key here, is finding a challenge for the youngster.

Several Gers players are currently experiencing success at their adopted homes, including Greg Docherty and
Zak Rudden, among others.
If the right club come along, McCrorie should jump at the chance to make a move.
It’s the best way to prove you have the credentials to make it at Ibrox, in the long-term.
