New Rangers signing can feature at right-back.
Rangers have granted young defender Jordan Houston permission to leave Ibrox for the rest of the season.
Houston links up with Airdrieonians, the club confirmed, less than a month after making his Rangers debut.
He had come on as a substitute in Rangers’ Scottish Cup win over Cowdenbeath, and impressed in his brief showing for the Gers.
So what’s changed at Rangers since for the Glasgow giants to sanction his exit?
The answer pretty clearly appears to be the signing of Steven Gerrard’s former MLS opponent Matt Polster.
Polster sealed his switch in late January and is in consideration for Rangers first team chances.
His versatility helps, with right-back being one of the positions he can play.
Last weekend he was named on the bench against St Johnstone, with Houston returning to the under-20s.
Houston now has a chance to show what he can do at first team level for Airdrieonians, and with it, is a clear hint that Polster is in line to soon get a debut to show what he can do for Rangers.
