Leon King eyes Rangers game time as he bids to turn Scotland dream into reality

Leon King knows he faces a battle to reclaim his Rangers spot if he is to make his Scotland dreams a reality.

The young Light Blues defender was thrown in at the deep end earlier this season under Giovanni van Bronckhorst due to a major injury crisis at the club. Connor Goldson was ruled out injured for a couple of months while Ben Davies struggled for fitness. Filip Helander and John Souttar have been long-term crocks leaving the 19-year-old to step up.

He picked up big game experience both domestically and in the Champions League against the likes of Liverpool and Napoli. Occasions that will only improve him as a player. Since Michael Beale's arrival he has found game-time hard to come by with Goldson and Davies both fit and forging a partnership at the heart of the Ibrox defence. The duo have been consistent picks and have remained fit in a huge boost to everyone associated with the club.
