Former Rangers talent Carson McGauley has completed his switch to Hearts.

There has been plenty of movement between the clubs, with Derek McInnes becoming the Ibrox side's manager.

He has brought Cammy Devlin and Lawrence Shankland from the Jambos to the Govan outfit too.

However, they finally have a piece of revenge, although it is not at the same level.

He has now signed his contract with McInnes' former side to finalise his move.

The terms of Carson McGauley's switch from Rangers to Hearts revealed

McGauley has sealed his transfer to the Edinburgh side, after his Light Blues deal expired earlier this summer.

A report from the famous academy-focused account Talent Hunter on Sunday revealed the Jambos' plans for the youngster.

It stated that the "standout" from the Gers' CAS Elite U17’s League win has signed his first professional deal.

He will feature for their Under-19 age group side next season, according to their information, after spending 10 years at Auchenhowie.

He will be a big loss for the Bears' youth ranks, given the amount of time invested in him.

Who is Carson McGauley and why will his loss sting at Rangers?

McGauley joined the ranks at Rangers at the age of six, and had worked his way up to the Under-17 team.

Born in 2010, he is a centre-back who is regarded as one of the brightest talents in Scotland.

He had clearly caught the eye of Ally McCoist, the legendary Gers striker, who sent him a message as he said his farewell to the Glasgow side.

The now talkSPORT host said: "Best of luck wee man. You go for it"

Gers fans would have hoped that he could have had a similar rise to Findlay Curtis, but if he does, it will not be with them.

Rangersers have done well to keep their promising talents this summer, amid interest from the Premier League, but a few were bound to slip away and McGauley has done just that.

The Ibrox club will likely cross paths with their former talent once again in the future, but he will be on the opposite side hoping get one over on them, rather than helping them.
