MICHAEL BEALE returned to Ibrox with the intention of finding the Glen Kamara of old. Two months in, he could have uncovered a new version of the midfielder.
On the day that he conducted his first media conference as Rangers manager, Beale addressed the futures of Ryan Kent and Alfredo Morelos and their respective contract situations were an obvious talking point on that occasion. The other player he spoke about was Kamara.
He was a mainstay of the team that Beale built alongside Steven Gerrard, an integral component of a side that were invincible during the 55 campaign and that made such an impression in the Europa League. Few players performed their role as consistently as the quiet man who lets his football do the talking.
