Lee Wallace's son follows in dad's footsteps by joining Rangers

The son of a former Rangers player has followed in his dad's footsteps by joining the club.

Lee Wallace's son, Billy, has signed for the club's youth academy.

Wallace's partner Steph has taken to social media to show a photo of them with their wee boy signing his forms at Ibrox.

She wrote on X: "Following in his dad's footsteps.

"So proud of all the hard work and commitment Billy has shown the last few years, he so deserves this."

Wallace - who is currently a coach with Hearts' B team - turned out 257 times for Rangers between 2011 and 2019. 

Injury issues curtailed his Ibrox career for the former Gers captain, who joined from Hearts.
