Rangers Under-18s: Squad Update

RANGERS Academy are pleased to confirm details of the players who have joined our full-time programme in the Professional Development Phase joining up with our U18 team.

Kerr Robertson, Zander Hutton, Sam Kane, Jamie Newton, Leyton Grant, Findlay Curtis and Niall Rogerson have all been part of Rangers Academy’s schoolboy programme and will now move into Cameron Campbell and Stevie Smith’s under-18s group for the 2022/23 season.

In addition to those who have come all of the way through the Academy, players have been recruited into this year’s intake from other clubs.  Cameron Cooper has joined the club from Partick Thistle, Kieron Willox has signed from Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Paul Nsio from Lambeth Tigers, Souleyman Mandey from Pulse Academy and Mason Munn from Glentoran.

Head of Academy, Craig Mulholland said: “We would like to welcome all of the boys on the start of their exciting full-time journey here at Rangers.  They will now enter an education programme with our U18 group under the guidance of Cameron, Steven and a wide range of multi-disciplinary staff who will ensure a programme is delivered which will give the lads the building blocks for hopefully a long professional career.

"This year’s intake is quite different from previous years with a wider diversity to the group in terms of profile and with a greater external intake than normal we will quickly help the players understand the strong values and standards expected at Rangers.

"Our recruitment team have done a fantastic job identifying and securing new high potential talent from various locations and while we realise there is lots of work to be done, for both players and staff, we are excited to see the levels that some of these lads can reach in a few year’s time.  We would like to thank Glentoran, Partick Thistle, Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Lambeth Tigers and Pulse Academy for their professionalism while discussing the possibility of the players joining Rangers.

"We know how exciting and proud a time this is for the players and their families and our staff off the pitch will support them fully to ensure they also maximise their academic education, have strong well-being support and are housed in excellent home environments, all of which will aid their development as footballers and importantly as people.

"This year is a great example of our clear strategy of combing exciting home grown talent with external recruitment as part of our player trading model.  We wish all of the boys and their families well on their journeys and all at Rangers will give them all of the help and support they require to succeed."
