Graeme Murty’s Glasgow Rangers have brought Jason Cummings to Ibrox.

Barry Ferguson has suggested in The Daily Record that Jason Cummings can be a success at Rangers.

Rangers have signed Cummings from Nottingham Forest in the Championship in England in the January transfer window.

The Gers have secured the services of the 22-year-old striker on loan from Forest until the end of the season.

Former Rangers midfielder Ferguson has suggested that Cummings will be a success at Ibrox.

The former Scotland international has also stated that the career of the Scotland international is reaching crossroads.

Ferguson wrote in The Daily Record: “As for Rangers, the hope is Cummings will hit the ground running and I sincerely hope he does. I like him. He’s a gallus boy who believes in his own ability and I have no problem whatsoever with that.

“He’s still a young guy but his career is reaching cross-roads because, after setting the heather on fire at Hibs then failing to make the big breakthrough at Nottingham Forest, he needs to make the most of this opportunity.

“I genuinely believe it will go the right way for him because he has the ability and the attributes to be a Rangers player. He’ll never have experienced demands like this before but he looks to me like the kind of guy who will thrive under that spotlight.”

Cummings was a success during his time at Hibernian in Scotland, but the youngster failed to make an impact for Forest at the City Ground in the first half of the season.

Rangers, though, could see the youngster return to his best, as manager Graeme Murty is a good coach who knows how to handle talented and promising young players.

The Ibrox club are unlikely to win the Scottish Premiership title this season, but the Gers can clinch the runners-up spot.
