Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers could have a fully-fit Jordan Rossiter at their disposal soon.

Jordan Rossiter moved one step closer to a return to first-team football for Rangers today.

The former Liverpool midfielder captained the Gers’ Under-20 side to a 1-0 win over Valencia, with senior manager Graeme Murty confirming that the 20-year-old managed 60 minutes.

For Rossiter, it’s a step in the right direction after what’s been an injury-plagued 18-month stint in Glasgow, having been signed by Mark Warburton in the summer of 2016.

Since then, the talented midfielder has only managed to start five games in all competitions for Rangers, but he is injury free for now and appears to be closing in on a return to the senior set-up.

And suffice to say that fans of the Ibrox club are delighted with the development.

Rossiter, who earns £10k-a-week according to The Daily Mail, has been an expensive investment but he certainly has the talent and hopefully the drive to start repaying the faith that the club have shown in him.

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers was a big fan of the youngster when the two were at Liverpool, which goes to show how much of a talent he is and Rangers fans are understandably excited about the prospect of seeing him soon.
