The young Rangers player has already made a positive impression since joining Steven Gerrard’s Ibrox ranks.
The teenage Rangers striker, Nathan Young-Coombes, has explained why he quit Chelsea for Ibrox.
Young-Coombes joined Rangers on a two-and-a-half-year contract in January and has immediately made a positive impact in Glasgow.
The 16-year-old shone as the Gers’ Under-17s secured the ALKASS Cup in Qatar last month and has already appeared at reserve-team level – justifying his decision to leave Stamford Bridge.
Asked why he made the move north of the border on Twitter earlier, Young-Coombes replied via the Rangers Youth Development Co. page: “Just to get more opportunities. This club has a lot of history and there is a lot of passion in the city.”
The Londoner also revealed the one thing he has noticed which sets Rangers apart from the Premier League giants, telling another user: “There are not many differences (between the two clubs). The professionalism and quality is just the same here as at Chelsea.
“My teammates, coaches and older boys have made me feel welcome and I can see a pride in this club whereas that doesn’t really happen down south.”
But the former Chelsea and Crystal Palace youngster acknowledged he still as “a long way to go” before that can happen.
How good a signing could Young-Coombes prove to be for Rangers?
