Rangers winger Glenn Middleton has joined St. Johnstone on loan for the rest of the season the Perth side have confirmed.
The Rangers wideman, who spent last season on loan at McDiarmid Park returns to the Saints after playing a big role in their double cup triumph last season.
After heading back to Ibrox over the summer, Middleton featured in pre-season for Rangers but hasn’t been near the side for the two competitive fixtures so far.
Middleton could make his second debut for Callum Davidson’s side this weekend when they face Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership at McDiarmid Park.
The Scotland under-21 star has also spent time on loan with Bradford City and Hibs in recent season as he struggles to force his way into the first-team picture at Rangers.
Despite an impressive season in Steven Gerrard’s maiden campaign, Middleton has only featured a handful of times in the two seasons since for Rangers.
“I’m really pleased to be back at St Johnstone,” Middleton said.
“I thoroughly enjoyed my time here last season and to be back to help us go again is very exciting.
“The lads in the squad all made me feel welcome when I joined last January and they took me right into the group to make me feel a part of it from day one.
“There is a great team spirit and I could see that again from the 1-1 draw against Galatasaray last night in the Europa League qualifier. The lads were absolutely brilliant.
“I’m looking forward to getting started and working again with the gaffer, Callum Davidson, and his staff.
“I’d like to thank everyone involved at both Rangers and St Johnstone for working hard behind the scenes to make this move happen.”
