It has been reported that Barcelona sent their top young talent spotter to watch the 15-year-old playmaker feature for the Scotland Under-16 six weeks ago.

According to the report, the Barca talent spotter was impressed with the performance of promising youngster during the match, which the Scotland Under-16 side lost 4-0 to their French counterparts.

Representatives from Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea also scouted the Rangers youngster during the match, according to the report.

It seems that Gilmour’s talent and quality are starting to attract the interest of some major European clubs, and it could be tough for Rangers to keep hold of Gilmour.

Meanwhile, the Rangers first team are doing quite well and are very much in the running for a second-place finish in the Scottish Premiership this season.
