After beginning in career at Rangers’ arch rivals, McAdams now plays for Steven Gerrard’s Ibrox outfit.

Aidan McAdams has claimed, in a joint Q&A session with Ibrox teammate Kieran Wright, that moving from Celtic to Rangers was ‘fairly comfortable’.

The goalkeeper spent a decade in Celtic’s youth ranks before his move across Glasgow, to rivals Rangers, last summer.

But his Bhoys allegiance has not held him back at Ibrox.

Asked by one Light Blues supporter how he found the transition from Celtic, McAdams replied via the Rangers Youth Development Co Twitter account:

McAdams, who has been capped by Scotland at up to and including under-19 level, has yet to appear for Rangers at first team level.

And the 19-year-old faces a difficult ask to break into Steven Gerrard’s plans, with Allan McGregor, Wes Foderingham and Robby McCrorie all currently ahead of him.

But the former Celtic youngster does at least have another 18 months left on his deal, in which to impress those at Ibrox.

Can McAdams break into the Rangers first team?
