Rangers confirm first January transfer business as ‘terrific’ deal signed off
Rangers youngster Robbie Fraser has sealed a “terrific move” to Livingston in the January transfer window, Four Lads Had A Dream says.
The Gers confirmed on Friday (3 January) that the 21-year-old will spend the rest of the season at the Scottish Championship outfit.
Fraser’s departure is “sensible”, considering the B Team have played most of their fixtures for the season.
Four Lads wrote on their official X account (3 January): “Terrific move for Fraser and the type of move which will really benefit his growth. Now that B Team fixtures are largely over, it’s a sensible move. Good luck, Robbie.”
Robbie Fraser to develop at Livingston after Rangers transfer
The left-back had made four appearances in all competitions for the Gers in the current campaign, largely featuring for the youth side.
Philippe Clement handed the 21-year-old an appearance as the Light Blues beat Celtic 3-0 at Ibrox on Thursday (2 January).
The Belgian manager relied on Jefte to provide cover on the left-hand side of the defence in the 2024/25 season.
Neraysho Kasanwirjo also featured for Rangers in that position during the first half of the campaign, but the Dutchman’s injury seems to have ended his time at the Glaswegian outfit.
The Light Blues are light when it comes to options at the back, and maybe they could’ve signed a reinforcement before sending Fraser on loan.
John Souttar has been on the sidelines for the last few weeks, and Leon Balogun also picked up a knock in the 1-1 draw with Motherwell on 29 December.
Dujon Sterling and Robin Propper were part of the makeshift backline that won the Old Firm derby, with Ridvan Yilmaz also starting over James Tavernier.
The Ibrox faithful will hope the 21-year-old youngster has a fruitful spell at Livingston and comes back a stronger player in six months.
