Rangers midfielder Jordan Rossiter could reportedly move to Scottish Premiership rivals Motherwell on loan.

Reports suggesting that Jordan Rossiter could be on his way to Fir Park have got Motherwell fans talking.

According to the Express, Well are interested in landing the 21-year-old on loan from Rangers at the end of this season.

There are two schools of thought here.

After all, Rossiter is a superb talent with the potential to be one of the best midfielders in the league if he puts together a run of games in the centre of the park.

There is a reason he was tipped for greatness at Liverpool; not to mention why Rangers seized the chance to bring him to Ibrox in 2016.

On the other hand, why would Motherwell take a punt on a player who has endured an almost constant injury nightmare since moving north of the border two-and-a-half years ago, particularly when Stephen Robinson has a number of exciting young talents at his disposal already?

The fact that Rossiter has made just ten league appearances for Rangers speaks volumes. In the eyes of the majority, he is simply not worth the risk.
