Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers signed Clint Hill on a free transfer last summer, and he has impressed in his first season.
Glasgow Rangers defender Clint Hill has admitted to the Scottish Sun that he struggled to deal with the expectation after moving to Ibrox.
Hill moved from QPR to Rangers last summer, and the veteran defender was taken aback by the demands at the Glasgow club.
The 38-year-old claims that he took a while to settle at Rangers, but as the season has gone on he has become more accustomed to the pressure.
“I struggled at first. I struggled with the whole expectation of the club and where it was at the time,” Hill said.
“The club was in the Premiership now and the expectation was to win it.
“I thought it would be a gradual process but, no, the fans wanted to win it and I struggled with that at first.
“I also struggled with the system and the style of play and I found it tough.
“But I slowly got my head around it and I thought this club is massive and I need to prove people wrong.”
Hill has gone on to impress in his first season at Rangers, and he has played an important role for the Ibrox side.
Hill has made 28 appearances for Rangers so far this season, yet his future still remains unclear.
The veteran defender’s current deal at Rangers expires at the end of the season, and he has not been presented with new terms yet.
Hill has expressed a desire to stay with the Light Blues, but it is unclear whether Pedro Caixinha plans to offer him a new contract.
Hill has missed Rangers’ last three matches with injury, but could make his return against Celtic this weekend.
