Glasgow Rangers defender Joe Worrall has told the Herald Scotland that he appreciates Steven Gerrard’s comments about him.

Gerrard has recently suggested that Rangers could be interested in signing Worrall permanently.

However, the centre-back has insisted that he only sees his spell at Ibrox as a temporary move currently.

“It’s obviously nice that the manager says things like that, but I’m on loan from Forest,” he said.

“Forest is my team, they employ me and pay my wages. It’s a loan for me. I’m really enjoying it here, and I thank the gaffer for playing me in the games. I’m here until the end of the season, so hopefully you’ll see a lot more from me and what I can do.”
