Curtis Davies sends message as Rangers transfer news confirmed
Curtis Davies has sent a message to Kieran Dowell as he completed a loan move to Birmingham City from Rangers in the winter transfer window.
The former Blues defender commented “Love it Laaaaaaa” on Instagram [28 January] to the latest confirmed transfer news at Ibrox, as the League One outfit announced Dowell’s signing until the end of the season the day before.
Birmingham are at the top of the League One table and are favourites to win promotion back to the Championship in the current campaign.
Kieran Dowell transfer to Birmingham City from Rangers sensible
The Englishman has struggled to make a mark in Scotland since signing for the Light Blues from Norwich City in the summer of 2023.
While Philippe Clement has given the 27-year-old a few opportunities at the Bears, he was unable to make an impact at Ibrox.
The attacking midfielder made 16 appearances for the Glaswegian outfit in the current campaign, most of which were off the bench.
It makes sense for Dowell to sign for the Blues on loan, and he will likely hope to get regular minutes at St Andrew’s under Chris Davies in the coming months.
Rangers have found a winning formula in recent weeks, and that excluded the English ace from Clement’s plans.
The Belgian manager has relied on youngsters more as the season has progressed, with the likes of Clinton Nsiala, Bailey Rice, Findlay Curtis and Zak Lovelace getting minutes in the last few matches.
While Dowell’s time at the Gers has not gone well, the Ibrox faithful will undoubtedly wish him luck in the future.
The 27-year-old will return to the Light Blues in the summer, but he will evidently be back on the market once his stint in Birmingham ends.
