Rangers boss wants Glenn Middleton to fulfil his Ibrox potential.
Rangers under-20s coach Graeme Murty has told The Evening Times he wants to see more from youngster Glenn Middleton.
Middleton is back with the development squad after featuring for the Rangers first team in 2018.
Murty has praised Middleton’s attitude, after he scored a brace last night, in a 3-2 Glasgow Cup defeat to Celtic.
Middleton’s goal was impressive, but Murty wants to see him do more.
He admits he is harsh on the teenager, because he knows he is capable of reaching another level.
Murty said: “I was pleased with Glenn’s two goals but he can do more.
“I am harsh on him as I have known him since he was 15. He knows he can do better and so do I.
“That is the next stage for me, for him to get to the next level. His attitude has never been a concern and when I had the chance to bring him from Norwich it was a no brainer.
“He is an asset to the team and since he came back to play for the younger age group he has been great. His finishes are first team level finishing.”
Middleton has been a regular goalscorer for the under-20s and it’s only a matter of time before he gets another first team chance.
Murty is determined to challenge him to ensure he is ready.
