RANGERS Academy are today delighted to announce the signing of Zebedee Lawson from Brighton & Hove Albion.
The highly-rated 16-year-old winger joins after impressing for the Seagulls’ Under-18s outfit last campaign, registering four goal contributions in just 13 appearances.
He will join up with Stevie Smith’s Under-19s side as they compete across the CAS Elite League, KDM Evolution Trophy and Glasgow Cup this campaign.
Interim Head of Academy, David McCallum, commented: “We are thrilled that Zebedee has chosen Rangers as the next destination in his young career.
“He is a very exciting player that our Academy recruitment team, headed up by James Fowler, have been tracking extensively for some time.
"As well as our commitment to nurturing and developing our own talent through the ranks, we must be active as a club in monitoring and securing young players with potential from elsewhere.
"We are very much looking forward to working with Zebedee and seeing his development over the coming years in our environment here at Rangers.”
Head of Academy Scouting and Recruitment, James Fowler, added: “We are delighted to welcome Zebedee to Rangers.
“He is a player with huge potential and one who has been a standout playing above his age in a strong environment at Brighton.
“It has been a considerable team effort on the recruitment side and I’d like to place on record my appreciation to all those involved throughout the process.
“It is important that, allied to the investment in our local homegrown talent, we identify and pursue emerging talent across the continent, and Zebedee is certainly a player who we believe can develop into a real asset for the club.”
