Glasgow Rangers supporters got their first look at Myles Beerman earlier this month when he was handed a debut against Kilmarnock.

The Maltese youngster helped keep a clean sheet in the draw, showing manager Pedro Caixinha was right to give him a shot.

The 18-year-old is still a raw prospect, but one that is aiming for the very top.

Taking part in a Twitter question and answer session earlier this year reported upon by the club’s official website, Beerman told how Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale is his idol.

If he wants a model professional to copy, Bale is an ideal figure, having overcome early adversity at Tottenham to become the best player in their team and leaving for a world record transfer fee in 2013.

He has since gone on to win two Champions League medals.
