Alex Lowry says he must show an extra edge to prove he can be a regular for Rangers.
The attacking midfielder is now a fully-fledged senior member in Michael Beale's dressing room, although he has endured a disrupted 2022/23 campaign. But he will be one of the academy stars in the fold this summer as part of the manager's big Ibrox revamp, and Lowry is keen to play his part.
Scott Arfield - out of contract in the summer - and Ianis Hagi are two player he reckons he needs to get past. He has two favoured positions and a goal in mind, but knows it's a big ask. He told club media: “I still have so much to prove and it’s up to me to prove to the manager that I’m worthy of a starting place or game time from the bench. “Hopefully I can play as many games as possible for the club.
“The manager has given a lot of young players a chance. But I know it’s not easy to get games for Rangers and I have experienced pros like Ianis Hagi and Scott Arfield who play in my position.
“Playing as an attacking midfielder or winger are my best positions so I need to play at their level and maybe do stuff they don’t do in games to try and get in the team.
“It’s obviously a huge challenge but it’s one I am up for. I am now a permanent member of the first-team squad and that gives me a lot of hope for the future.
“That’s just one stepping stone to try and get into the starting XI though. It’s now up to me to show the staff and the manager what I can do in training and prove that I’m worthy of being in the team."
