Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers have loaned out the young utility player.

Ross McCrorie of Rangers walks off after being sent off during the Scottish Cup Semi Final match between Rangers and Celtic at Hampden Park on April 15, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers’ decision to offload Ross McCrorie didn’t go down well with fans of the Ibrox club.

Gers boss Steven Gerrard sent the 21-year-old Auchenhowie product to Portsmouth on a season-long loan.

But The Record reported that the English club would have the option to sign him permanently next summer.

Rangers’ supporters aren’t over the moon with that arrangement, but Pompey fans on Twitter seem delighted to have signed him.

Here’s how they reacted to the loan:

McCrorie has been a big player for Rangers down the years, but only in certain periods. He’d come into the team and then disappear again, and this has been happening for a few years.

In total, he has started 30 Premiership games over the past two seasons, which isn’t a huge amount, but it gives him enough experience to do a job in League One.

McCrorie has previously enjoyed loan spells with Ayr United and Dumbarton.
